AHSOKA SLIPOVER

The Ahsoka Slipover with the crossing front pieces is a timeless design for the modern wardrobe.

To begin with, the ‘saddle shoulders’ are made individually with Judy’s Magic cast-on, and then stitches are picked up to first knit the back piece with fine details, and then the front pieces. The front pieces are knitted in two layers - an upper and a lower front piece, which, due to repeated increases, will later cross each other at the front of the body. All edges along the slanting front pieces and along the armholes are knitted simultaneously with the rest of the slipover.

Ahsoka Slipover is knitted from top to bottom, in one piece, and is therefore assembly-free.

SIZE GUIDE

Ahsoka Slipover comes in 2 versions.

Version 1: Is shorter and the front splits higher on the torso. Suitable for shorter torsos and frames.
Version 2: Is longer and the front splits lower on the torso.
Suitable for longer torsos and frames.

The slipover should have a positive ease of approx. 0-15 cm // inches

For example, if you measure 72-77 (79-86) 88-93 (94-99) 100-105 (106-112) 114-120 (123-130) 132-140 cm // 28¾ -31½ (31 - 34¼) 34¾ - 36 (37-39) 39¼ - 39¼ (41¾ - 44) 45 - 47¼ (48½ - 51¼) 52-55 inches around the chest, you should knit a size XXS (XS) S (M) L (XL) 2XL (3XL) 4XL.

Since the slipover splits open in the front it may feel larger than the stated garment circumference - if you want a tighter fit or if you are in between sizes you can choose to go down one size.
