About: The Plug and Play Slipover is a minimal slipover, think presentable full torso dickie, that includes a front and back panel with open air sides, fixed together with tabs. The slipover is worked flat, starting at the top back to form a panel, with gentle shaping, cascading into a ribbed hem. The shoulders stitches are picked-up, worked and joined, knitting flat, flowing into slight shaping, finishing with a ribbed hem to mirror the back panel. The neck is then knit in the round, the tabs are worked in double knitting and the side panels are seamed for a clean finish with crisp lines.

Suggested Styling: Wear the Slipover paired with your favourite dress or skirt combination. Or let your Slipover be the star of the show over a crisp white blouse and jeans.

Yarn Pairings: This pattern pairs well with one strand bulky weight yarn, one strand worsted weight held together with one strand of lace weight yarn, or two strands of unspun yarn held together to obtain gauge. Plug and Play Slipover Pairs Well With Knitting.
