NOTES ABOUT DESIGN

Introducing the Pride Summer Sweater! This top-down crochet design is worked in circular rounds on the right side. We begin with the yoke, then divide for the sleeves and body.

With its relaxed fit, this sweater is perfect for casual wear. The main stitch used is triple crochet, keeping things simple yet stylish. What’s unique is that the raglan increases are done individually on the body and sleeves. This allows you to customize the circumference of each part to your liking.

To give the sweater a polished finish, we’ll incorporate a combination of Front Post double crochet and back post double crochet stitches for the neckline, cuffs, and bottom hem. This technique creates a ribbed effect, adding texture and a professional touch.
