This Crochet Christmas Sweater Pattern is the perfect cozy make for the holidays — or any time you want to feel warm and comfortable. It’s a top-down raglan sweater, worked in one piece with no seaming, which means less time joining panels and more time actually enjoying your project.

The sweater is made using chunky velvet yarn, giving it that soft, plush texture that feels amazing to wear. It works up fast, making it a great last-minute Christmas make or a weekend project when you’re in the mood for something cozy and satisfying.

The design features an oversized fit with bobbles along the yoke, sleeves, and bottom edge for a subtle festive look — just enough detail to make it special without being over the top. It’s the kind of sweater you’ll want to wear while opening gifts, baking cookies, or heading out for some Christmas shopping.

Even though this sample is made in red and white for the holidays, you can easily make it in any color combo you love — neutrals for a classic winter look, or bright shades for year-round wear.
