Crochet Sweater Patterns Some Handy Tips.

If we are considering doing some Crochet Sweater Patterns then the chance's are we have some experience now, we may be still in the early days of our new found hobby but just a little bit more confident and ready for bigger project.


The beauty of Crochet Sweater Patterns is that they come in all shapes and sizes and therefore also in all levels of difficulty.  now we may be ready to learn some new stiches so don’t be put off if you see a pattern with a number of stitches which are unfamiliar.

Now this brings me onto my Handy tips.


1.    Pick a Pattern which has a purpose, this could be a present for someone or for a new baby on the way. A great motivator, is understanding you have a reason to do this not just learning and enjoying crochet.


2.  As we said don’t be put off by seeing stitches in the pattern we don’t know yet, now’s as good a time to learn them. We will have to learn a lot of stitches over time and most we will forget, we just need to take a look at the instructions now and then and re-learn them as we need them.


3.    Sweater Patterns are unforgiving, so make sure you have sufficient wool before you begin and make sure it is all the same shade. I like to try and get all from the same batch this will make sure the color is an excellent and consistent match


4.    Don’t over stretch check the level of difficulty and be comfortable.

The Crochet Sweater Pattern will be available on our Blog Site.
