The Keep It Simple slipover is an elegantly minimalist knitted slipover with open sides that are tied closed with wide, decorative straps. The hem is slightly longer in the back than in the front. The clean stockinette fabric allows the yarn to shine.
The slipover is worked in one piece starting from the ribbing at the lower back edge and knitted upward toward the shoulders. The shoulders are worked separately and then joined again, leaving space for the neckline. The front is worked from the shoulders downward to the front ribbing. Stitches are then picked up around the neckline and a double folded ribbed collar is worked. The slipover is finished with wide knitted ties at the sides.
The sample slipover is knitted using Linkulla Spinneri DK wool yarn. This Finnish artisan yarn stands out with its rustic character. Suitable substitute yarns include DK-weight yarns with a yardage of approximately 100–130 m per 50 g.
