The Svea Slipover is a modern, seamless top-down garment designed with clean lines and thoughtful construction details.

The yoke is shaped using short rows to create a natural and comfortable shoulder fit. After the yoke, the work is divided to form front and back separately, allowing precise armhole shaping before joining the body again.

The slipover is worked in the round for the main body, resulting in a smooth and even fabric. All edges are finished neatly to maintain a minimal and refined aesthetic.

The design is written for multiple sizes with individually adjusted shaping to ensure consistent proportions and a well-balanced fit across all sizes.
