Helena Slipover
Introducing the Helena slipover, a beautifully warm and cosy piece designed to become a staple in your wardrobe. This stylish slipover is knitted from the bottom up in seamless rounds, making it an enjoyable project for knitters of all skill levels. Once you reach the beginning of the armholes, the pattern directs you to divide the work into back and front sections, allowing you to work each side in rows until you reach the shoulders.
The back of the Helena slipover is crafted using soft stockinette stitch, complemented by elegant ribbings at the hem and around the armholes, ensuring both comfort and a polished finish. The highlight of this design is the striking cable panel worked at the center front, which adds a captivating detail to this classic piece. This intricate cable design is clearly outlined in a chart for easy reference, making it simple to create stunning texture in your knits.
The Helena slipover is specifically intended to fit with approximately 3” - 4” [8 - 10 cm] of positive ease at the bust, providing a flattering silhouette. The sample shown is in size S, featuring 4” of positive ease at the bust for a relaxed yet stylish fit. Whether you wear Helena over a collared shirt for a polished look or layer it over a long-sleeve tee for a more casual vibe, this versatile slipover is perfect for any occasion.
