Thea Slipover is an oversized vest with a cropped fit. It is spacious, beautifully soft, and features a delicate eyelet pattern on both the front and back. Thea Slipover is worked from the bottom up in the round. At the armholes, the work is divided into front and back pieces, which are then completed separately working back and forth on the circular needle. Finally, rib edges are worked around the neckline and armholes.

Note:
The use of stitch markers to divide the pattern is not recommended. Stitch markers may cause the pattern to shift on row 7 if you follow the markers instead of the chart. It is therefore important to always follow the chart carefully.

Sizes and measurements:
1 (2) 3

Bust circumference: 114 (130) 146 cm
Length: 50 (50) 50 cm

The design is highly versatile in both size and fit. The pattern includes three sizes, each of which can fit a wide range of body types depending on the desired fit.

For an oversized look, choose the size that provides approximately 30–40 cm of positive ease relative to your bust measurement.
For a more fitted look, choose the size that provides approximately 15–25 cm of positive ease.
