Pure
Designed by Chris Berlin
PURE is an all-over ribbed slipover.
It is knitted from top to bottom. Simple and clear. Due to the rib-bing pattern, the adjustment is a little bit easier. If you like to wear the sweater body-hugging, you should block it less after washing.
I worked the Como Grande tightly with 3.75 needles - the stitch pattern of the rib pattern comes out well and the collar has a good stability.
The armholes at the back are deliberately longer, so there are no creases at the neck and the beauti-ful increases are more visible at the front.
