The Paris sweater is a hip-length style crochet work with a V-neck and long balloon sleeves. This sweater is worked top-down in raglan using double crochet stitch. The sweater body and sleeves are worked straight, therefore it can be easily made longer and of course, more yarns should be estimated. Paris sweater is timeless crochet wear and has a straight silhouette, so it fits well with high waist jeans, shorts or skirts and looks very feminine and elegant.
