The Light Fandango is a lightweight, floaty v-neck crochet sweater, worked using a top down seamless raglan construction. It has an oversized body with fitted long sleeves that will have you skipping.

Because this is a-top down design it means there is no seaming or joining pieces together, and you can try it on as you work!

Skills Needed
This pattern is suitable for adventurous beginners or intermediate crocheters. It is a relatively simple sweater, especially for anyone who has ever worked top down before.
The tweed effect Herringbone stitch used is described in the pattern, which also gives a link to a photo and video tutorial.

The pattern is written in 7 women’s sizes, from XS - 3X (bust 93-165cm).
