Avenue Slipover is a sleeveless sweater with dropped shoulders and large textured squares pattern. It is knitted in the round from top-down and without seams, with two threads held together. The shoulder line is created by increases on each row while the collar is worked in short rows.

Avenue Slipover has a versatile fit. It is designed to be worn with a positive ease ranging from 5 to 25 cm (2” to 8”), and it is available in two lengths: thus, it adapts perfectly to all body types and to your style:

If you want a relaxed sleeveless top, wear it with a 15-25 cm (6” to 8”) positive ease. If you want a more classic look, prefer a positive ease of 5 to 15 cm (2” to 4”).
