This is a beginner friendly pattern for a top down, raglan style sweater. The cowl neckline is added last, so you have the option of including it on the finished garment or not. Furthermore, the sweater was designed to have an A-line shape, making it wider as it gets longer, to flatter any and all body shapes.

It is created using a DK weight yarn and a 5.00 mm crochet hook. Stitches you will need to know are sc, dc, dc2tog, d3tog, hdc, chain, and slip stitch.

Sizing instructions are included for XS-3X. Sizing is based off of the Craft Yarn Council’s chart for standard women’s measurements, and are included in the instructions.
