THE DESIGN
“In 2 lengths.”
This season-spanning piece is a reinterpretation of the Churchmouse Classics Sleeveless Slipover. The deep, ribbed hem and open side vents give the Reset Slipover a relaxed, easy style. With options for cropped and tunic lengths—and a clever yarn choice—it’s a versatile layering piece that’s great for any season.

We knit the Reset Slipover in collaboration with Madelinetosh, selecting their brilliant Tosh Wool + Cotton for its year ‘round, easy-care aptitude! This DK-weight yarn is composed of 50% superwash merino wool and 50% Pima cotton, both ethically sourced in Peru. Lightweight, yet nice and substantial, Tosh Wool + Cotton is a great choice for transitional pieces we love to wear in the in-between seasons. It’s nice and resilient—machine-washable on gentle cycle. And then, there’s the palette of Madelinetosh’s gorgeous hand-dyed colors!
