Wild Boys Slipover Junior English

Wild Boys Slipover Junior Knitting Pattern (English)

Wild Boys Slipover Junior is worked in two-coloured double knit stitch from the top down.

The back piece is worked back and forth with increases on each side shaping the slanting shoulder seam. Each front piece is worked from the shoulder seams towards the bottom of the v-neck. The two parts of the front piece are joined and worked as one until the armholes have been shaped. Body, armholes and v-neck are worked in a half twisted rib. The ribbing has two layers. The first one is worked from the wrong side, the other part is worked from the right side. Now the two layers are joined as a double ribbing and bound off.
