This crochet pattern is for a men’s v neck sweater, with a textured mesh design. The design features wide stripes of stitches that create a rib effect. To get a vertical rib effect, the sweater is worked sideways and the front and back are made in one piece. The pattern was designed using DK cotton (light, Worsted, category 3).

This sweater pairs well with the Rib Mesh Shorts also available in my Ravelry Store.

The garment is made in three pieces and then sewn together. The instructions include lots of detail to ensure shaping is made easy. There are lots of options for selecting your own sizing, so there really is no limit to the sizes you can make. Customise chest and length. There are instructions for short, medium and long sleeves, with information on customising the lengths.
