A stitch unpicker used carefully would do the job and then you could anchor the top with a few inside stitches... The sweater is fabulous and fits you like a dream.

Awesome skirt too, but I do hear you on the inadequate slit. Indeed, Mr. Ted Baker should try to walk in a skirt like this for a whole day as punishment.
