COVER is an oversize slipover, worked sideways in stockinette stitch. Left and right side are worked separately and knitted together with visible seams at the front, back and sides - therefore completely seamless. You start in the middle, where the front and back are worked in one piece, and the shoulder is shaped diagonally with decreases at the top of the back. The special V-cut makes it necessary to shape the back, front and sides with short rows, to avoid the vest sticking out in the middle of the stomach. Neck and sleeve edges are worked integrated the body and finished with a small rolled edge. Finally, stitches are picked up for the hip-edge, which is worked in the round, and with the option to change the length a little.
