Introducing Anjou pullover’s sleeveless sisters (arguably better sisters, cuz no sleeves!). This rhythmic, fun, top-down, seamless slipover pattern is suitable for intermediate knitters and above.

You will receive both the Buttoned Version AND Vest Version of the Anjou Slipover upon purchase.

The stitch pattern was inspired by the monochrome images and transient illusions drawn by the streaks of lights peaking through my windows. The two colours used in the mosaic stitch pattern work together to accentuate the texture of the knitted fabric, adding depth and mimick the dance of lights and shadows.
