This pattern is in English. This is a digital product. 

Classic slipover made with a 5×3 stitch. It can be worn over a T-shirt, shirt or as a blouse.

This pattern is worked top down, partly in rounds, partly in rows. First, you work the back of the slipover in rows up to the underarms. Then, you work each shoulder separately in rows, while shaping the neckline. The shoulders are joined together and the front piece is worked in rows up to the underarms. At the underarm, the front and back of the slipover are joined together and then the body is worked in rounds. The stitches for the ribbings are picked up along the free edge of the front and back of the sweater and are then worked in rounds. At the end you pick up the stitches along the neckline and create a double collar.

All ribbings are worked in 2×2 stitch.
