Tao Slipover pattern release

18 months, 1 pregnancy & a toddler later…

The Tao Slipover pattern is finally here! Just in time for the winter (or, dare I say it, gift-knitting) season.

Knit at a worsted-weight gauge, Tao Slipover is a seamless, top-down, crew-neck, all-over textured pattern. The sample shown here is worked up in Sandnes Garn Peer Gynt held with a strand of lace-weight mohair.

Graded into 12 sizes, to fit chest circumferences of 75 - 160 cm (30 - 64 in)
