Sand Grain Slipover

This pattern is in Danish

Sandkorn Slipover is a slipover with a fine braid pattern, a classic fit and deep armholes. First the back piece is knitted, after which sts are picked up for both shoulders in the cast-on edge, which are picked up for the front piece. The front and back pieces are then joined together, which is finished knitting on a circular needle and finished with an edge in turned rib. Finally, pick up sts for neckline and sleeve edges, which are knitted in the round in twisted rib.
