This crochet hexagon sweater is constructed with two hexagons which are sewn together.

A repeat of rounds/rows of treble crochet (US double crochet) and V-stitch clusters form the stitch pattern.

All sizes are worked the same until the armhole depth is reached and then only 3 sides of the hexagon are crocheted to continue extending the front and back for your size (diagrams are included).

Options are written in the instructions for extending the sleeves and working a ribbed sleeve cuff and adding a ribbed hem to the sweater. The extended sleeves give a bishop style to the design. It’s totally up to you whether you leave the sleeves as three-quarter.

The ribbed hem does gather the base of the sweater giving a fabulous shape overall although you can also leave this off if that is your preference.

You can customize your hexagon crochet sweater further by adding a hood. The hood is worked directly onto the collar of the sweater.
