Helena Sweater
WHAT IS IT
A crochet pattern where you learn how to crochet this simple, easy to adjust sweater. Good for beginners and the whole sweater is made in one.
This sweater is inspired by the vintage crochet from the 1940’s and 1950’s where the crochet tops and sweaters had a particular shape to them – they were wide at the shoulders. I find them very flattering, especially if you, like me, have small or narrow shoulder and need more action on the shoulder area!
For the white one I used Drops Belle (cotton, viscose, linen blend) in size 3, DK/worsted and size 6 mm hook. It’s made in size medium but with a shorter front/back panel and therefore also tighter sleeves.
The bordeaux sweater is made in wool and is size small. Both seen on size small.
