Olive Slipover

Olive Slipover is part of our Olive pattern family - designs that showcase an allover lace patterning with ribbed edges. In the same family, you will also find the sister patterns Olive Turtleneck, Olive Cardigan, Olive Top and Olive Scarf. Worked seamlessly from the top down with 1 strand of Merino and 2 strands of Soft Silk Mohair held together throughout, Olive Slipover is soft, light and airy – just like a cloud.
