This pattern is currently retired-- I’m working on a better, more size inclusive version!

The Electric Granny Square Sweater is a modern, funky take on the traditional granny square. Each square is made from granny stripes in alternating colors, which creates an “electric” look. The sleeves use the same granny stripes in alternating colors, and the bishop sleeve fit makes for an extremely cozy yet trendy look. The Electric Granny Square Sweater is a size inclusive pattern that comes in XS-5X and it is designed to be nice and cropped. This is the perfect end-of-summer sweater that will keep you feeling bright in the colder months.

Pattern includes:
Step-by-step photo instructions
Detailed written instructions for each size
Instructions on how to adjust length for a longer fit
Special Stitch Instructions
Color-coded numbers for individual sizes so it’s easy to keep track of your own size

The Electric Granny Square Sweater is designed to have a relaxed fit, so if you are in between sizes, you can size up.
