    A V-Neck Crochet Sweater

    Whatever colors you choose you will have fun mixing them in this easy V-neck sweater. The pattern guides you through when to change the colors and worked bottom up it is an easy sweater to make also for the beginner.

    Made in the lemon peel stitch this crocheted pullover has great texture and is a fun and fast to make. The lemon peel stitch is a mix between single crochets and double crochets making it accessible and easy.

    V-neck sweaters are one of my favorite type of garments and I’ve been dreaming of designing this sweater for a long time. This sweater is perfect to use both at home or out and about. Lounge in it on the couch or take a nice walk in the park.

    My pattern testers for this sweater are all busy moms and have explained this sweater as the perfect mom sweater! Put on some jeans and sneakers and you’re ready for a day at the playground.

    Make it in a size larger to get that extra oversized fit! This sweater has a simple construction. It is crocheted in three pieces: one body piece and two sleeves. In the end you’ll only have to sew the sides and add a neckline.

    A Rustic Yarn That's Perfect for Autumn

    The SubLime Sweater is made using Lion Brand LB Collection Merino Yak Alpaca Yarn. It is a merino wool yarn mixed with yak and alpaca giving it a rustic look and a lovely feel and warmth.

    I’ve never worked with Lion Brand Yarns before but knew at once when the yarn arrived that it would be perfect for this sweater. The drape and texture of the yarn is perfect for the lemon peel stitch and make it a very light sweater that is warm and cozy.

    The Skills You'll Use

    Skills required are single crochet, double crochet, half double crochet, increases, decreases and changing colors. Since the lemon peel stitch is only a mix between single crochet and double crochets that are repeated, it is a beginner-friendly stitch.

    The pullover uses this stitch through all parts of it except for the neckband and you can sit back and relax and enjoy the interesting texture this stitch creates. Since it is the same stitch and repeated through most of the sweater it is easy for a beginner to pick it up and learn.

    The neckline and sleeves are slightly tricker including increases and decreases in the end of the rows, but the pattern instructs you how to get back on track with the lemon peel stitch.

    Overall Pattern Notes:
    • The SubLime Sweater is worked in 3 pieces: one body piece and 2 sleeves which will be sewn together in the end.

    • The pattern is written in US terms.

    • This is a garment making it crucial to meet gauge to not get a sweater that is either too big or too small. Change hook size or crochet looser or tighter to get the correct gauge.

    • Chains do not count as stitches. Stitch count can be found in parentheses after each row: XS (S, M, L, XL, 2XL) sts.

    • Lemon Peel stitch: *dc, sc* repeat *-* across row, ch 2. Turn. On the next row continue repeating *dc, sc* across row making sure to place the dc in the sc from previous row and sc in dc from previous row. (Since you turned this will be like this automatically). This does not apply in the beginning of next row after decreases and increases, place the sc and dc as instructed by pattern.

    • The sweater in the pictures has the colors as follows:
    Color 1: Taupe
    Color 2: Sage
    Color 3: Oatmeal
    Color 4: Mustard

    • To check gauge:

    Chain 20.

    Row 1: Dc in the 3rd chain from the hook. Sc in next sts. *dc, sc* repeat *-* across row. Ch 2. Turn.

    Row 2: *dc, sc* repeat *-* across row making sure to place the first dc in the sc you ended with on the previous row. Ch 2. Turn.

    Row 3: Repeat row 2 until your swatch is 4" high.

    Count how many rows you get in 4" high (should be equal or close to 12 rows). Measure how many sts you have across row for 4" (measure in the middle to avoid the edges). You should have 12.5 sts across, that means that 4" mark is in the middle of the 13th sts.

    Color 4 - row: 24-39
    Color 2 - row: 40-57

    *Sleeve will be 18.5" after 57 rows. Color changes take this into account. If you wish to make a longer or shorter sleeve you need to adjust color changes accordingly. If adding more rows I recommend adding more of color 1 or 3. If making fewer rows I recommend that you take from color 2.

    Seaming

    Fold the front over the back and seam the sides using the mattress stitch, leaving holes for the sleeves approximately 12.2” (13.4”, 14.2”, 16.1”, 17.3”, 18.1”). Do not fasten off yet so you can adjust the armhole later.

    Fold the sleeves in half, longways, and sew the sides together using the mattress stitch. Sew your sleeves to the sweater.

    Mattress stitch: sewn with right side of the garment facing out. It is done like tying a shoelace. Go under the back loop of the other side, pull tight (but not so tight that it curls the garment). Cross over to other side going under the back loop. Repeat across.
