Easy Top-Down Seamless Crochet Sweater for Beginners - Free Crochet Pattern

ATHABASCA FALLS PATTERN UPDATE www.mjsoffthehookdesigns.com/...
This top-down pullover is a breeze to create, featuring a seamless raglan style designed with simple double crochet stitches. Thanks to the user-friendly design, this pattern is a fantastic introduction to crocheting your own wearable masterpiece.
The tutorial begins by showcasing how to crochet the collar using single crochet stitches in the back loop only. It then provides guidance on counting rows and joining the collar.
Moving forward, the video illustrates crocheting around the edge of the collar to initiate the yoke, which is structured into four distinct sections-sleeves, front, and back. The yoke unfolds with simple double crochet stitches, each section divided by V stitches.
Watch as the tutorial demonstrates expanding the yoke to the desired size, followed by separating the body and sleeves. The body is then worked in a continuous round, finishing with a ribbed band for a polished finish.
Follow the process of reattaching the sleeves, implementing decreases to refine the sleeve width, and mastering the reverse slip stitch join technique.
Lastly, the tutorial guides you through crocheting a ribbed cuff to complete the sleeves, resulting in a beautifully finished pullover ready to be worn with pride.

All my sweaters are with your patterns 😂 God has truly blessed you with gifted hands!

So professional as are all your patterns.

[@mjsoffthehook]

Thank you so much 🥰

[@gethompson8319]

​@@mjsoffthehookDo you have instructions for Large size?

[@beccapindzia433]

I started working on this on Saturday afternoon, and I just split for the sleeves. It works up so fast, even though I accidentally bought the DK version of the Mandala yarn! My boyfriend likes the look of it so much that he bought yarn yesterday to make his own. He just learned how to crochet, and this will be his 3rd/4th project (his first was a sweater vest, second was a cardigan, and he’s working on a granny square cardigan). My friend is expecting a baby in the fall, and they will definitely be getting the infant version of this pattern (and a matching one for their toddler). Thank you for such a simple, yet elegant pattern! ❤

[@cherylcrimin2265]

This will be my 3rd sweater using this pattern. I know the pattern by heart at this point. I used different yarns before but this time I used this exact yarn in the same color way. It fits perfectly every time, that's why I trust your patterns, they always fit. Thanks, can't wait for your next creation!

[@mjsoffthehook]

Thank you so much!

[@allison.l]

I actually used this exact yarn and color last year when I made this sweater! It works perfectly!

[@angelavonbrughan199]

This pattern works up beautifully! It's so easy to follow. Started on Sunday night and already 3/4 of the way through my first sweater. Thank you MJ!

[@TheVroni1968]

Das ist ein wunderschönes Muster und von dir so gut erklärt, das selbst ich es ohne Englischkenntnisse nachhäkeln konnte, vielen Dank dafür. Habe jetzt deinen Kanal abboniert, weil ich noch viele andere Anleitungen von dir gesehen habe, die mir einfach gefallen und zum Nachmachen einladen.

[@tinastalion6266]

Oooooohhhh I love it Michelle!! And I love working with Mandala yarn. Thank you so much! 😊🧶🦋💜

[@mjsoffthehook]

I'm so glad! The Ombre is so soft! Such a beautiful yarn ❤

[@alizitaphillips3319]

Can you say how much to add for bigger sizes?

[@CharlotteKavina]

I love it. You're definitely helping me learn the craft. I'm hoping there's a V-neck variant of this design in the works.

[@jenreeves7684]

Your sweater is beautiful 😊

[@heatherconner9338]

Thank you❤

[@MrsWyldie]

Thank you for sharing this pattern! ❤ I’m only having trouble because there is no definite front and back. Since my front is bigger, it’s not quite sitting right on me. If I make it again, I think I’ll decide a front vs back and add some increase rows to accommodate. I’m also planning to creating a gap on each side at the band to accommodate my hips. 😅😉

[@renateburns8840]

I bought the pattern, did,nt think I needed the video but, alas, I do need it! Found I missed that first stitch after the V stitch. Please emphasize that in the written pattern. Thankfully it does work up quickly.

[@AbbyRivera-sf9xu]

Can you pleeeeease make a cardigan using this pattern? I’ve made your raglan top down cardigan and I love it!

[@claudianavarrete1074]

Es hermoso❤

[@mjsoffthehook]

Thank you!

[@barbaramason9494]

Just found you, just got hooked! 😊 How many sweater designs have you done? Going to binge watch your videos & start making your sweaters. Beautiful work!

[@mjsoffthehook]

Too many to count😆 Thank you!

[@angelapa9513]

Very nice design thank you Is there a problem with the speed of the video

[@maurisamarie1521]

Love this sweater, working on mine right now! Do you have a pattern for a baby/child’s size? Love to get started for matching fall sweaters for me and my tiny tot.

[@bethmcblaze]

i’m making this right now with mandala yarn too! i wish mary maxim still had the super soft puppy fur yarn though!

[@mjsoffthehook]

Me too😢

[@Amanda-po9xe]

Thank you for your wonderful patterns! I was just looking for something like this for a beautiful blue yarn I bought. But I want to make a polo/turtleneck... do you think it will work if I make a longer chain in the beginning to accomplish that, or will it look weird? 😄

[@angelapa9513]

Ok I fixed it

[@renateburns8840]

My guage is exact, the numbers were right for rows 1 and 2, so I kept working. At row 19 my numbers are for row 9 according to the chart!!! Almost ready to start sleeves, it is getting large, my guage is exact.

[@mariaholtzhausen9876]

Can you do a tutorial on how to crochet a pixie jacket

[@tabithaalbertson1686]

How many would it take to make a x large? a small would fit my momma. I have larger shoulders that is a wonderful pattern I love that you are sharing your talent thank you ❤️

[@sanamsohail2003]

I love your patterns I wanna make this but I need large size details, could you please elaborate. Thanks really appreciate it.

[@mjsoffthehook]

You can follow along with larger sizes on the blog. Keep working rounds and try it on for fit.

[@alizitaphillips3319]

Did you get an answer on how to make a bigger size on the pattern?

[@doriannasaunders6634]

I am wondering if you have a guide for a yoke like this with different size yarns (like a variation chart or some sort )

[@EmilyRoseYarnworks]

Could you foundation dc for the sleeves instead of chaining?

[@Mskatie1357]

Do you recommend the larger hook to be what’s advised on the yarn label?

[@Noahidebc]

Could this be done with a 3weight yarn if I went up a hook size?

[@dawnmterry1]

When you get to the part where you make the chain for the sleeves and then start the body you say to not do the slip-stitch to connect and to just keep going, won’t that make the lines like a spiral and not even rows/lines?

[@lavenderaussie]

Beautiful, can someone tell me, is this meant for a baby 0-3months?

[@susanhallamado]

Can the collar be altered as it is very low in the back.

[@user-yc2cd4gt3h]

I learned to crochet by looking at KZbin videos... but how do I now figure out how to make this sweater for my size? PLEASE help??

[@kevywilliams3304]

I’ve watched all your videos. But I fail to know how you know how many stitches to start with for size of the person….

[@sharonbonanni6788]

I bought the pattern on pinterest but didnt receive it. I'm not sure why, usually pinterest patterns come straight through. 😢

[@emansons2]

Is this pattern for medium size ?

[@JillyMae89]

It says Small
