Dolman Hoodie Granny Cardigan

Dolman Hoodie is a light weight granny square cardigan with a stylish hood and batwing sleeves, designed using fingering weight yarn. If you're not feeling the hood, no worries, it's optional! Choose from sizes XS to 4XL for a perfect fit based on your body measurements and the preferred amount of ease. The instructions are written using standard American terms, along with crochet diagrams, step-by-step photos, and a conversion chart to UK terms. You will be joining motifs as you go, referring to diagrams constructed individually for each size. This pattern is professionally written, tested and tech-edited to make your crafting experience a breeze. **FORMAT & LANGUAGES:** • English • PDF, 14 pages and 4.5 MB (mobile devices friendly) **CROCHET LEVEL & SKILLS:** • Intermediate • Chain, slip stitch, double crochet, back/front post double crochet, join-as-you-go, working in rows and in the round, sewing. **SIZES:** • XS/S: Bust 28"–34" (71–86.5 cm); finished cardigan - 40" (101.5 cm) • M/L: Bust 36"–42” (91.5–106.5 cm); finished cardigan - 44" (112 cm) • XL/2XL: Bust 44"–50" (112–127 cm); finished cardigan - 56" (142 cm) • 3XL-4XL: Bust 52"–58" (132–147.5 cm); finished cardigan - 60" (152.5 cm) **YARN:** Fingering weight (100% wool or wool blend) — approx. 400 m (435 yd) per 100 g (3.5 oz).
