More Details about this Crochet fitted Sweater Pattern

Pattern Notes

1. Chains at the beginning of the rows do not count as a stitch.

2. To join next color, insert hook into next stitch, yarn over, pull through, having 2 loops on your hook, drop the color to be changed and pick up the new color, pull through the loops using the new color.

3. Keep unused yarn (color) on the wrong side, and make color changes on wrong sides also.

4. This pattern is crocheted using two different techniques; the front uses tapestry crochet while the back uses the common crochet stitches (DC).

5. This sweater is worked from bottom up.

6. Panels are worked back and forth without joining, after which both panels are joined together.

7. Shoulder is seemed together as well as the sides.

8. Sleeves are worked in rounds, as a continuation of the bodies.

Construction Notes

  1. This sweater is worked in 3 sections.
  2. Section 1 -Front panel made using Tapestry crochet technique (sc all through), in rows.
  3. Section 2 – Back Panel – Made using Dc and Ch sts, in rows.
  4. Section 3 – Sleeves made in rounds.
  5. Front panel is sewed to the Back panel on the sides and the shoulder seams.

Adjustments/fittings

1.     Length: increase or decrease the repeat rows on the front panel before splitting for armpit and also adjust the number of repeats for the armhole to your preference.

2.     For a shorter sleeve – decrease the number of rounds.

3. For each of the panels, it is recommended that you measure the width, this should be half your bust measurement. If its too small/big, go up/down a size.
