Olivia Sweater
"Crafted with chunky yarn, this v-neck sweater offers the ideal balance of warmth and drape. The mesh-like fabric created with the sieve stitch is airy enough to allow for movement, yet substantial enough to keep you cozy during cooler months. The body is worked in rows and the sleeves in rounds. You can choose to leave off the ribbing around the hem and v-neck for a more ‘rustic’ style and shorter length. You’ll love wearing this garment that transitions seamlessly from season to season! /DETAILS Skill level : Easy (minimal shaping to the V-Neck and sleeves) US Terminology written in English /MATERIALS Emu Classic Tweed Chunky; 1082, (1225, 1369, 1502, 1638, 1760, 1917) yds 6mm / J-10 Crochet Hook for body 5mm / H-8 Crochet Hook ribbing and sleeves Stitch Markers Tape Measure Scissors Yarn Needle /FINISHED SIZE To Fit (inches) Width Approx (inches) Length Approx (inches) Amount of Yarn (yards) approx.
