Knit a cropped, oversized slipover with a tall folded turtleneck, broad shoulders and a clean vertical rib texture. Rounded I-cord edges frame the generous armholes, creating a relaxed layer to wear over a shirt or dress.
The front and back are worked separately from the bottom up in 1 × 1 rib with integrated I-cord edges. Shaped necklines and sloped shoulders are followed by shoulder and lower side seams. The collar is picked up and knitted in the round, with decreases and a smaller needle shaping the upper section before it is folded outward.
- Skill level: Intermediate; includes maintaining ribbing through shaping, mirrored neck decreases, stepped shoulder bind-offs, seaming, picking up stitches and working the collar in the round
- Sizes: Seven adult sizes, XS to 3XL, designed with approximately 31–34 cm / 12.2–13.3 in of positive ease; choose by your full bust measurement and desired oversized fit

- Needles: 4.5 mm / US 7 for the main panels, 4 mm / US 6 for the lower-edge setup and collar pickup, and 3.5 mm / US 4 for the upper collar, or sizes needed to obtain gauge
