The Crossroads Sweater

When I spied the tutorial for the Crown Puff Lattice stitch in Sarah Hazell’s Crochet Stitch Dictionary (aka: my most favourite crochet stitch book ever), I knew I would have to really showcase it. When I paired it with the Forked Cluster, it created this dramatic, eye-catching sweater.
If you’ve used my patterns before, you know that I don’t like seams, so this top is completely seamless. I also provide a lot of close-up photos to help you work the various stitches.

This pattern includes a photo tutorial for the Forked Cluster stitch and photos to help you through the Crown Puff Lattice Stitch. The pattern also contains other photos to help you create your sweater
