BLOG www.mjsoffthehookdesigns.com/...
Introducing the "Athabasca Falls Children's Pullover," a highly requested addition to our beloved Athabasca Falls pullover design.
This easy crochet sweater pattern is perfect for beginners, as it is worked from the top down using double crochet stitches. Say goodbye to seaming-this pattern is seamless and is worked in the round, allowing for a smooth and professional-looking colour transition, especially with gradient yarns like Prism from Mary Maxim.
The tutorial provides a comprehensive walkthrough of the entire crocheting process, featuring detailed instructions for each critical step:
Crocheting the ribbed collar and joining it, then beginning the yoke by working around the collar edge using single crochet stitches.
The video demonstrates how to crochet the yoke setup round and increase the yoke. The yoke construction is carefully explained using simple double crochet stitches and V stitches.
The video demonstrates crocheting a sweater for 0-3 months, showcasing techniques for separating the sleeves and body from the yoke. Working on the body and adding a join-as-you-go band.
Furthermore, the video offers step-by-step guidance for joining back onto the sleeve opening and effectively working the sleeves. This includes a demonstration of gradual decreasing techniques and finishing them with a join-as-you-go cuff, ensuring a professional and comfortable finish for the sleeves.

So adorable!!! Love it!! Hope you’re having a good night.❤

[@katiek829]

Hi, this is a great pattern, and you explain things quite well, but I wanted to make you aware that there is a "chapters" feature on KZbin that makes it easy to find the right section that you are looking for. It's extremely useful for people who are looking for specific help interpreting the written pattern as they can just skip to the right section and fine tune from there.

[@elifxeliff]

I just finished it and it came out perfect, thank you gor the tutorial :)

[@sharonmiller9858]

Thank you, love this😊

[@ShettikkaWoods-jl8iq]

Beautiful 😍 pattern thank you 👍🏾

[@debbiementz1946]

Hello MJ I was wondering if you could design some summer tops. I am in the process of learning how to design my own tops but I'm not there yet. I really enjoy your work a lot. Thank you for all you do and for making your sizes go up to 5x most designer do not do this to them it is easy to just do this or that just saying that you get when you don't to me that is just the designer being lazy. Oh I know it's a lot of work to make a tutorial I use to do and enjoyed it. Most people learn by seeing. Thank you for all you do Hugs

[@Toscalily]

I'll second this, I want to make summer tops and crop tops but all I can find is knitted tops and I'm not a very good knitter yet. Would love to see some crocheted tops

[@Southamericangirl42]

@debbiementz1946 @Toscalily Y'all should check out Yay for Yarn and For The Frills. Yay for Yarn especially because she's an excellent teacher. I highly recommend both.

[@barbiec4312]

Mine turned out really cute. Used Caron Cotton Cakes in Sea Glass, with 5mm and 6mm hooks. Thank you for your wonderful patterns. ❤❤❤

[@katka24ification]

Waaaw I can not wait to make this! 😍😍😍

[@nurgultuter7994]

Çok güzel olmuş. Gökkuşağı renkleri cocuklara uygun.

[@nehirebasar9870]

Türkçe yazılı anlatım için teşekkürler ❤ çok güzel bir model bravo

[@adeleb7753]

[@user-ur8gu2oh1b]

I bought yarn similar to yours MJ but it from Michaels loops & threads in multi blue colour & would like to do a larger size for my grand child in 2-4 size

[@arcoffey04]

This sweater and the granny stich ones are so cute and easy to make! I bought that pattern for this one and its been super helpful, but my 3-6month sweater looks hugee. Am i using the wrong kind of yarn or something??

[@user-ns7dy5kv1d]

hi on your website it said you used a 4mm and a 4.5mm hook? is the video correct or the website?

[@mariellasemeraro4316]

Lovely! I would like to make it for my daughter Do you have the measurements for 4 years? Thank you!

[@maricarmenlopezmarquez5557]

Hola Yo quiero hacerlo para mí nieta tiene cuatro años y no se ni por dónde empezar pero me gusta mucho el jersey gracias

[@janinegething6632]

Ho there. Love your pattern. Where do I find the PDF pattern with size options please. I would like to make for 3-6 months old. Many thanks.

[@estelalima8438]

The link for her blog and Etsy are in the description

[@deekettlety8916]

Hi I’ve made the adult one with lion brand. Would love to make this one for my granddaughter. I live in UK and can’t buy this yarn here, is there an alternative yarn I could use? Love your channel ❤😊

[@mjsoffthehook]

I would suggest going through the list of subs from yarnsub.com and see if there is a close match that is available to you❤️ yarnsub.com/yarns/mary_maxim/prism

[@nancymulder2010]

Hello, Now i can start with the sleeves. Did you use the larger hook for the sleeves? Thx for this cute pattern

[@mjsoffthehook]

The smaller hook is only used for the bands.

[@JadeHendriks]

Hi there I was just wondering where I could find the pdf for the pattern🌸

[@karenosbron9128]

Can you make this yarn and a number 4 weight

[@yolandahernandeztorres6007]

Hola teje muy bonito pero lo podria traducir a español por favor

[@edanurbulut2946]

❤❤❤👍👍

[@elisaw7575]

What size is the sweater in the video?

[@LynMuller-fn4vt]

Does this work in cotton?

[@Southamericangirl42]

Yes, absolutely. I'm nearly done with mine. I used cotton in four colours and made it kind of colour-block with a denim blue tint as the main colour as it's for a boy who will be born in late summer.

[@maddalenamalvezzi4391]

Ciao puoi tradurre tutto in italiano, vocale...mi piacciono i tuoi lavori,ma faccio una fatica a seguire 😮 grazie se puoi

[@michelletroch2140]

My sweaters all come out waaay too big or way too small. Love making them tho....

[@mjsoffthehook]

Gauge swatch ❤

[@michelletroch2140]

If I used red heart size 4 yarn, do I need to adjust the gauge?

[@FloOnTheGo]

Really nice yarn and cute little sweater. I was very surprised to see you bind off at the sleeves. There’s no need for that. DC 1 in the first V, chain 4 then DC 1 in the next V. Continue with the DC’s across front then repeat for the next sleeve. DC across back to the first V. I was just totally surprised. No disrespect implied. I love your patterns and tutorials.

[@VeronikaGunter]

So where is the size chart for this colored sweater? Am iissing something. I want 3 to 6 months

[@estelalima8438]

You have to buy the pattern to get the other sizes. The link is in the description.

[@tracycaldwell7679]

44:58 45:10

[@user-ur8gu2oh1b]

It’s 0- 3months

[@Mskatie1357]

I don’t know where I’m going wrong it just seems my count is off everywhere I go. I’m about to scrap this project. I’m so frustrated. Edit: I have changed my perspective and I’m embracing chaos. If it looks like a sweater, then im doing fine. Stitch count be damned!

[@mjsoffthehook]

😢Do you have the pdf pattern? The pdf includes charts that breakdown the stitch count for the front, back, sleeve sections of the yoke for each row. So that you can easily track how many stitches you need to have and troubleshoot where you could be going wrong. If you are loosing or gaining stitches on the body section or sleeves I would suggest using stitch markers. Hope this helps!

[@jackieedwards4912]

Same here. I just can’t get the last quarter to have the correct number of stitches
