The Herrade Slipover is worked top down. The back side of the yoke is worked first, then the shoulders, the fronts around neckline and armholes, to be finally all joined to be worked in the round.
It is knitted in stockinette stitch with a nice ribbing edge that goes down only at the right side and will grow all around the body in a gently sloping.
4 sizes are available : S-M-L-XL
The sample is shown in size M.
3 balls (3 x 100g) for all sizes.

The Herrade Slipover is inspired by a vest I saw in Felletin last Oktober from « Laines Paysannes ».
(And I have their agreement to publish this here as free)

Finished bust circumferences (unstretched) : 90-98-106-112 cm /35½-38½-41¾-44 inches
The slipover may lose its strength easily with its rib parts.
Its length is easily adaptable too, explained in due time.
Armholes have a wide opening.

Many thanks to my dear testers !
