Friday Slipover – Knitting Kit (Felted Tweed, Discontinued Colours)
Designed by PetiteKnit
The Friday Slipover by PetiteKnit is a clean, modern layering piece with a relaxed silhouette and beautiful texture, worked in broken rib from the top down.
This version of the kit uses Rowan Felted Tweed in selected discontinued shades, offering a lovely opportunity to knit this popular design in colours that won’t return — perfect for creating something truly special.
Originally designed to be worked using a strand of 4ply yarn held together with mohair, we have substituted this with a single strand of Felted Tweed, achieving the same lightweight feel and excellent stitch definition. The result is a soft, wearable fabric with subtle texture and beautiful drape — a combination we’ve had excellent results with.
The slipover is constructed by working the back first, then the shoulders and front, before finishing the body. Rib edges are worked at the neckline and armholes for a polished finish.
