Holiday Slipover Junior - Knitting Pattern Designed by PetiteKnit This pattern is a printed pattern in English. The Holiday Slipover Junior is a chunky slipover with deep armholes. It is worked from the top down in stockinette stitch. First the back of the yoke is worked, then the shoulders, then the front of the yoke and finally the body. A split rib edge where the back section is worked a bit longer than the front section is worked at the hem. Rib edges are worked at the neck edge and along the armholes at the end and finished with an Italian cast-off for a neat and lovely finish. Knit a swatch before beginning the project to check if the recommended needle size gives you the correct gauge. Note that three strands of yarn are held together throughout the pattern for a chunky look (two strands of the thicker yarn and one strand of silk mohair).  Sizes: 4-6 (6-8) 8-10 (10-12) 12-14 years Measurements: Bust circumference: 72 (76) 80 (86) 90 cm [28¼ (30) 31½ (33¾) 35½ inches] Back width incl. rib edges: 28 (29) 32 (33) 34 cm [11 (11½) 12½ (13) 13½ inches] Armhole depth: 18 (19) 19 (22) 22 cm [7 (7½) 7½ (8½) 8½ inches] Total length measured mid back incl. neck rib edge: 45 (47) 48 (51) 52 cm [17¾ (18½) 19 (20) 20½ inches]  Gauge: 10 sts x 14 rows = 10 x 10 cm [4 x 4 inches] in stockinette stitch on 10 mm [US15] needles after wash and blocking Needles: Circular needles: 10 mm [US15] / 60 or 80 cm [24 or 32 inches] and 9 mm [US13] / 40 and 60 cm [16 and 24 inches] Materials: 150 (150) 200 (200) 200 g Kos by Sandnes Garn (50 g = 150 m [164 yds]) (two strands) or 200 (200) 200-250 (250) 250 Snefnug by CaMaRose (50 g = 110 m [120 yds]) (two strands) held together with 25 (25) 25 (25-50) 50 g Silk Mohair by Isager (25 g = 212 m [232 yds]) or Tynn Silk Mohair by Sandnes Garn (25 g = 212 m [232 yds]) or Tilia by Filcolana (25 g = 210 m [230 yds]) or Brushed Lace by Mohair By Canard (25 g = 212 m [232 yds]) or Kid Seta by Gepard Garn (25 g = 212 m [232 yds]).
