Stained Glass Jumper

> **This pattern was first published as part of a special bonus chapter offered alongside all paperback pre-orders of my book, [Reversible Crochet Sweaters][1]. Sign up for my [newsletter][2] to be notified when it becomes available for individual purchase!** ***DESCRIPTION*** The Stained Glass Jumper reimagines one of crochet’s most iconic stitches, the granny stitch, in a way that feels both nostalgic and refreshingly modern. Layers of color and texture form a reversible fabric full of movement and depth: on one side, a crisp mesh overlay creates a grid of “stained glass” panes; on the other, the familiar granny clusters shine through in shifting tones. This pattern comes with two style options: a long-sleeved jumper for cooler months and a short-sleeved tee for warmer weather. You choose which one to make! The construction is simple, the fabric beautifully drapey, and the process surprisingly intuitive once you get into the rhythm. It’s a project that celebrates color, comfort, and versatility in equal measure. And if you can’t get enough of the effect, don’t miss the matching [Stained Glass Scarf][3] for a perfectly coordinated finish. ***FINISHED MEASUREMENTS*** Finished bust circumference: 29 (33.75, 37, 41.75, 45) (49.75, 56.25, 59.5, 64.25) inches or 74 (86, 94, 106, 114) (126, 143, 151, 163) cm The sizing for this pattern is based on the standard Craft Yarn Council (CYC) measurements.
