Super Soft Crochet Sweater
FREE PATTERN and VIDEO TUTORIAL below! Please also check out the other free patterns here on CrazyCoolCrochet.com or view more at my Etsy shop: CrazyCoolCrochetUS.etsy.com
This pattern is quite long and it might be easier to work from the PDF pattern that you can find at my Etsy shop: CrazyCoolCrochetUS
This is the free version below. The Etsy pattern contains the specific materials list, gauge, dimensions, instructions for larger sizes and more photos (and no ads). It takes quite a lot of effort and time to design and create the pattern. This website and my patterns are my only source of income. Your support is truly appreciated!
Video Tutorial for your convenience. You’re welcome. 🙂 It had to be done in 3 parts (sorry ’bout that). Follow the first video to the next two. PLEASE SUBSCRIBE! I cannot monetize Youtube videos until I reach 1000 subscribers (!!!). Thankyouverymuch 🙂
