This pattern is for a slightly oversized jumper or short sleeve top. It has 10-12cm positive ease and is fitted around the sleeves. I would describe it as having a sweatshirt feel. It is full of texture with bobbles and half double crochets worked in the third loop from the front and the back.The rows are worked up and down which will then create a rectangle. The sleeves are worked straight onto the garment once the sides have been seamed.
 
It has a stunning V neck feature at the front and also the back and so much texture within the pattern.
 
Sizes available are XS, S, M, L, XL, 2XL, 3XL.

They are based on the bust measurements XS- 30”, S- 34”, M- 38”, L- 42”, XL- 46”, 2XL- 50”, 3XL- 54”
 
It uses a 5mm hook or any to obtain the gauge. You can either do a swatch of hdc’s and there are also instructions on how to swatch the pattern if you would prefer to do the gauge that way.
 
The pattern calls for dk yarn, acrylic seems to be the better option as it has more stretch and comes out much lighter than cotton. I made a size small with long sleeves and used one ball of stylecraft special dk for each section and had plenty of yarn leftover.
 
There are instructions on how to change the length of the jumper and also how to make the neckline bigger or smaller. As it is an oversized jumper, if you choose to do a cropped version it is best to go down a size.
