Stockholm Slipover V Neck - Ally's Edition

Knit the Stockholm Slipover V Neck by Petiteknit like Ally has from Fibrebound. Ally's notes can be found on her Ravelry project page and on her YouTube. 

This knitting kit includes the yarn required for the project in the size selected, but does NOT include the pattern. The pattern can be purchased from Petiteknit directly, or from her Ravelry page. 

The Stockholm Slipover V-neck has a V-shaped neckline and is worked from the top down. First, the back part of the yoke is worked, then the front shoulders and finally the body. The Stockholm Slipover V-neck has slanting shoulders that create a good fit and which are shaped using short rows. Rib edges are worked along the V-neck edge and armhole edges, and the edges are finished with an Italian bind-off. 

Begin by working a swatch to determine which needle size you need to achieve the correct gauge – it is important for the shoulder width of the design that the correct gauge is achieved.
