How To Make The Pick N Mix Sweater, Full Length Crochet Tutorial, Made to Measure,

Hey everyone and welcome to the Pick ‘N’ Mix Sweater pattern! This is a made to measure pattern consisting of double crochets and clusters. It’s a great design for using up scraps and adding pops of colour! As this pattern is made to measure, you can use any ply of yarn from your stash. I have provided the measurements that you will work towards (which you can find below), so you can concentrate on making an amazing sweater in any yarn that you desire!

Construction Details...
This garment is made up of 2 panels, one front and one back. They are both worked from the bottom up. You will then add a small amount of neckline shaping before seaming the pieces together. The sleeves are crocheted directly onto the garment. For my coloured sweater, I alternated between black and white for the foundation row, row 3, row 5, row 7 etc and then changed to random colours for the in-between cluster rows. This is completely optional.
This sweater has 8cm positive ease but due to the nature of the stitch pattern, it will create a fitted fabric. If you would prefer your sweater to be a bit looser, then I strongly suggest going up a size. You can also block your panels before seaming.
Here are some yarn estimates based on both 4ply (4mm hook) & DK yarn (5mm hook). You can find more details with regards to metres and yards in the written pattern - www.craftandac...
