The Abrazo is a contemporary style chunky slipover that will effortlessly keep you dressed up and warm. Slipover features large openings for the arms, cropped in the front and slightly longer in the back, it is framed with an i-cord edging to give it a minimal look. First you will cast on and work the stitches for the back, after that you will work left shoulder then right shoulder as well as the front to shape the neckline and the armholes, then you will connect the front and back to work the body in the round. The slipover is worked in stockinette stitch all the way through. It is meant to be worn with little ease 5-10 cm of positive ease is built into the pattern.
