Designed for All Wound Up Yarn Shop and the 2025 Puget Sound LYS Tour, this slipover is worked in lovely lace motif reminiscent of Cyathea Ferns, which are native to tropical regions of Central and South America, the Caribbean, and Australia.

Both cropped and full length instructions are given, and you can adjust the length for your perfect fit.

The slipover is first worked in the round, from the bottom up. At the underarms, the back and fronts are worked seperately and knit flat. The shoulder stitches are grafted, then stitches are picked up and knit in the round for the v-neck and arm holes.

The Cyathea Slipover can be worn over a tee, long-sleeve shirt, or as tank top.
