About this Product
This pattern provides instructions for a sweater or a sweater vest made with bulky yarn. The sweater is slightly cropped and is perfect to pair with high-waisted pants and skirts. It is worked from side to side (the length of the row is the length of the sweater). The ribbed nature of the textured stitch used will add horizontal stretch to the sweater. The pattern includes a detailed written description for each size, with links to a full video tutorial that takes you through the entire process, ensuring that you can confidently follow along and create your very own chunky crochet sweater or a sweater vest!
