Looking for a light, comfy pullover for that in-between weather when it’s cool, but not freezing? Don’t enjoy having to sew up a lot of seams in your projects? The Round Yoke Sweater is the free crochet pattern you’re looking for.

Ideal for layering, this simple sweater is a cool-weather wardrobe staple. Throw it on with your favorite pair of jeans, or layer it over a tank with a flowy skirt. Featuring ribbing at the neckline, hem, and cuffs, and a simple stitch technique throughout, this sweater can add texture to an outfit without competing with other prints or accessories.

Project Level: Intermediate

Sizing:

  • Sizing follows the Craft Yarn Council’s standards for Women’s sizes.

  • This sweater has a classic fit, with 4-5” (10.2-12.7 cm) of positive ease. If you are between sizes, size up if you want a looser-fit sweater, or size down if you want a more fitted sweater.

  • Measure the bust of the wearer, and choose the size that is closest to the wearer’s bust measurement, under the title, “To Fit Bust”.

  • Instructions and yarn requirements for size X-Small are given outside the parentheses, with Small, Medium, Large, X-Large, 2X, 3X, 4X, and 5X given inside the parentheses, like this:

X-Small (Small, Medium, Large, X-Large, 2X, 3X, 4X, 5X).

  • When only one number is given, it applies to all sizes.

  • When a set of instructions does not apply to all sizes, the numbers that would normally be given for the sizes that the instructions do not apply to will be replaced with dashes, like this:

7 (5, 3, 2, 0, -, -, -, -)
