Ingrid Slipover

The Ingrid Slipover is a beautifully textured, easy-to-wear layering piece with just enough detail to keep things interesting without feeling overwhelming.

It’s worked top down, starting with the back yoke. The shoulders are shaped with short rows, then stitches are picked up to form the front before everything is joined to work the body in the round.

The texture is what really makes this piece. It’s made up of three different knit and purl pattern sections, separated by subtle eyelet rows that break things up and add a bit of lightness to the design.

Finished with clean rib edges at the neck and armholes, this is one of those pieces that looks polished but still feels relaxed and wearable.

Yarn notes (this is a great one for Rebel Worsted)

This pattern is designed for a yarn with good structure and stitch definition,

You’re looking for:

• a 10 ply / worsted weight yarn
• something with enough body to hold the texture
• not too soft or drapey

Rebel Worsted works so well here because:

• it shows off the knit/purl texture beautifully
• it holds its shape without feeling stiff
• and it gives you that clean, slightly structured finish this design needs

If you swap to something softer (like a superwash):

• it will feel lovely
• but the texture won’t pop in quite the same way

The Ingrid Slipover is designed with approx. 20 cm of positive ease, giving you a relaxed, slightly oversized fit that works well over shirts and dresses.

To choose your size:

A quick tip before you start

Make sure you knit and block your swatch in the texture pattern, not just stockinette.

Because this design relies on texture, getting both your stitch and row gauge right makes a big difference to how it fits and sits.
