Spritz Sweater

***This crochet pattern is in English.*** Worked with 2 different color-changing yarns and an engaging stitch pattern, the Spritz Sweater is just a glimpse of what you can create with Tunisian crochet. The sweater is worked in panels from the bottom-up, starting with the bottom ribbing that is made with regular crochet. The front and back panels are then seamed at the shoulders and the sides, and then the sleeves are worked by picking up stitches around the armhole and are worked directly from the body of the sweater. Everything is worked flat, so you only need a Tunisian hook with a cord (no double-ended hook necessary)! Feel free to crop your sweater, or crochet extra long sleeves for a cozier fit and watch your sweater come to life. This purchase includes 1 downloadable version of the pattern that includes written instructions as well as step-by-step pictures, access to exclusive video tutorials, and a detailed tester look book showing different versions of this sweater. SKILLS USED You should know how to Tunisian crochet, read a crochet pattern, be comfortable with the basic stitches, know how to count stitches, know how to count rows, and know how to decrease.
