Nothing captures a care-free, bohemian spirit quite like this oversized V-neck crocheted hooded sweater. It features beautiful pineapple pattern with scalloped edges and drawstring tie at the neck. My favorite way to wear it would be as a form of summer layering: put it over a shirt or a top and it completely changes the look of an otherwise usual outfit. Or wear it over a dress for more bohemian look. The original crochet tunic by Free People it’s already sold out, but you can make your OWN creation! : ).

4 PDFs without links to videos will be added to your Ravelry-library:

► tutorial in ENGLISH written for every row with detailed crochet charts (browse screen shots of the PDF conceptcreative.store/wp-content-atmosphere);

► 3 HQ diagrams (all charts are blurred in the screen shots) – they should be downloaded even if you do not read charts because they will give a perfect overview of your project;

► written explanation of all charted rows is included (in case you are not used to work with the crochet charts).

Basic instructions about the crocheting process were translated into GERMAN (Für diese Anleitung müssen Sie Häkelschrifte lesen können. Für die deutsche Version kontaktieren Sie mich bitte nach der Bezahlung - ich schicke Ihnen die Übersetzung.)

Pattern with links to six Youtube VIDEOS can be purchased on my website or on Etsy.

Choosing the right YARN and HOOK to achieve great results

For the original look use mixed loosely woven yarn of 55 % cotton and 45 % silk (or bourette silk), 210 - 240 m in 100 gr (230-265 yds in 3.5 oz). Take approx. 500 - 550 gram of cotton/silk yarn with the length 210 m in 100 gr.

Good results are achieved with mixed loosely woven yarn of 50 % cotton (or linen) and 50 % rayon (or bamboo, tencel, soya, silk) because cotton/linen give pineapple motifs strength and rayon/bamboo etc. give nice draping. For example, Fuji, LB Collection Cotton Bamboo, Bamboo Cotton Solids, DROPS Cotton Viscose. Check the length of yarn in 100 gr (3.5 oz) since some producers label yarn between 210 - 240 m in 100 gr as 8 ply (UK, AU), DK-weight, 3 or Light (USA) and some - as 10 ply (UK, AU), Worsted-weight, 4 or Medium (USA).

My own version was made with loosely woven 100 % cotton yarn 240 m/ 100 gram and hook 4.5 mm (total yardage 1200 yds) http://www.ravelry.com/yarns/library/titan-wool-egitto

Size:
If your gauge fits, the size will be just as in the original tunic (one size but fits all):
Length: 27” = 68.7 cm.
Bust (all around, size S): 46” = 117 cm
Bottom Opening (all around, size S): 46” = 117 cm
For larger sizes use thicker yarn or bigger hook than recommended.
If you prefer less ease use smaller hook/thinner yarn.

Please keep the original small margins of this PDF during printing out.
