Crochet Pattern "Ice Blue Sweater" | seamless | 8 sizes

The ICE BLUE SWEATER is worn loosely and casually with enough positive ease. A split hem provides extra comfort around the hips. Long and wide sleeves make this top a practical companion that can be quickly thrown on. The pattern is easy and intuitive to crochet, and the eyelets add an airy feel to the garment.

The sweater is crocheted seamlessly from the bottom up. First, the lower sections of the back and front pieces are worked separately in rows, with the back being slightly longer. Then, the front and back are joined, and the body is worked in rounds up to the underarms. At this point, the work is split again: the front sections on either side of the V-neck are finished separately, incorporating decreases for the neckline. Afterward, the back section is completed. The front and back pieces are then joined at the shoulder edges. Finally, the sleeves are crocheted directly onto the armholes and worked in rounds—without decreases—down to the wrists.
