Svea Slipover - Mille Fryd

The Svea Slipover has a boxy fit. It is knitted from top to bottom in stocking stitch. First, the back is knitted, and you begin by casting stitches up to the neck. Here it is knitted back and forth with increases on each side. On the shoulders, stitches are picked up, and the front pieces are knitted separately before they are gathered at the front. After the armhole, the back and front pieces meet to form the body, which is knitted in the round on a long circular needle. Finally, stitches are picked up in the neck opening and a ribbed edge is knitted in the neckline. This is laid double and fitted inside with mattress stitching.
