She looks like your typical raglan knitted sweater… but she’s not! She’s 100% crocheted! The Doña Sweater is an innovative knit-look project that is crocheted sideways in one single panel (yep, you heard that right, you will make the whole sweater in ONE. SINGLE. PANEL).

The raglan effect is created with short rows and the result is a flat sweater that is finished by joining the sides and sleeves lengthwise. You can choose if you want to use a tapestry needle or a crochet hook for this step.

As always, the pattern includes multiple photos and videos (16 to be exact!), it’s size inclusive, ideal for intermediate crocheters and written in US terms. You can also make your sweater shorter or longer, the pattern will show you how.
