The Hawthorn Slipover is a simple slipover, featuring an all-over diamond texture created with knit and purl stitches. Worked seamlessly from the top down, the slipover begins with the back panel before stitches are picked up for the shoulders and front. The body is then joined in the round and finished with a split rib hem, while the neckline and armholes are completed with 1x1 ribbing and a tubular bind-off.
