This sweater is designed using a unique crochet stitch to give a ribbed-knit appearance. A relaxed, drop shoulder fit and subtle puffed sleeves make this sweater amazingly fashionable and cozy.

This sweater will be worked in 4 main pieces. You will work the front and back body pieces, as well as each arm. You will seam the pieces together to construct your sweater. The neckband will be added at the end. Sleeves and waistband will be finished after you have seamed your sweater together.
