The Casadinho Slipover is worked in stockinette stitch. It features beautiful details, such as the i-cord edging around the armholes and the small pleats at the underarms. Knitted with an airy yarn on larger needles, this one is a quick knit. Wear the slipover either on its own or combined with the cardigan as a classic twinset.
