Agatha (Christie) is a light and fluffy v-neck slipover with a beautiful striped pattern, knitted from top to bottom in Handdyed Fat Mohair and Handdyed Mohair Bouclé.
First, the upper part of the back is knitted with short rows to shape the shoulders and with increases for the armholes. Then stitches are picked up along each shoulder, and the two front pieces are knitted separately while shaping the neckline. Once the neckline is shaped, the front pieces are joined together and knitted with increases for the armholes, similar to the back. After the increases, the back and front are joined, and the body is knitted in the round in one piece, ending with a ribbed edge. Throughout, the slipover is knitted in an easy beaded stripe pattern.
