Knitting For Olive | Emma Slipover Pattern & Yarn Pack
Cosy Cables, Modern Style
The Emma Slipover is a timeless layering piece with a modern twist, featuring wide, elegant cables on both the front and back. Knit from the top down, this design offers a seamless construction and a flattering fit that pairs beautifully over shirts, dresses, or on its own.
Crafted on 7 mm (US 10.75) needles, the slipover is worked with three luxurious strands held together—Heavy Merino, Merino, and Soft Silk Mohair—giving it a soft yet structured feel with gorgeous depth and warmth.
The design begins with the upper back, worked flat to the underarms, before picking up stitches for the fronts. The body is then joined and worked in the round to a stylish split hem, adding both comfort and detail. Finished with neat i-cord edges at the neckline and armholes, the Emma Slipover has a refined, polished look that’s perfect for everyday wear.
Our Emma Slipover Pattern & Yarn Pack is suitable for the XS size pattern and includes: 4 x Heavy Merino (Soil), 2 x Merino (Soil), 2 x Soft Silk Mohair (Linen), and a digital pattern. You may purchase more yarn separately if you are following a bigger pattern size.
