Gipfel Slipover
When I think of a pattern name for my projects, I sometimes take a closer look at the stitch pattern I am using and turn on my imagination… In this slipover, I see mountain peaks which is GIPFEL in German.
The slipover is worked seamlessly from the top down. You start with the twisted ribbing on the neckband and continue with saddle shoulders and neck shaping. After that, the back and the front are worked separately and joined together at the underarms. Armhole bands are worked last. Split hem is another elegant detail to the slipover.
The range of ease across the sizes is 5-9.5 cm/2.5-3.75”. The picture shows size 3 with 6.5 cm/2.5” of positive ease.

PATTERN NOTES:
• The slipover is worked in one piece from the top down.
• You start with the neck, then work saddle shoulders followed by the yoke with the lace pattern.
• After the yoke is finished, the saddle shoulders are put on stitch holders and the armhole bands are worked separately in the round on dpns (or using magic-loop method, if you prefer). The body is worked separately in the round.
SKILLS REQUIRED:
• basics (tubular cast on/bind off, knit/purl, increase/decrease)
• short rows
• working in the round
• working from a chart
