With sizes from S to 5X and a choice from three fabulous lengths: cropped, standard, and tunic, this relaxed fit sweater is perfect for you to add your individual style and preference.

Back and front are worked from the bottom up in chevron stitch with minimal shaping for the neckline. 3 rows of 3 granny squares with extensions are worked for the sleeves. Once the sleeves are set in place, you’ll seam from the cuff to continue through the side seam.

I aimed to make this sweater crochet pattern adaptable and versatile. By utilizing a self-striping yarn, it can effortlessly showcase the beautiful transitions of colors. However, I also wanted to ensure that you could create this sweater using yarn from your stash, providing the opportunity to add your own personal touch and color palette into the project.

This easy crochet sweater can be worn as a stylish layering piece during chilly evenings or as a statement garment for festivals and boho-themed events.
