Sporty Checks Sweater

Front and Back are crocheted from the bottom upward. The Hem is added after, worked directly onto the beginning chain edge. Sleeves are crocheted from the top down. During the Square sections of the Sweater, change colors using the tapestry method. Hold both colors together throughout each row, crocheting over the unused strand. When changing to a new color, work up to the final pull through with the old color, completing the stitch with the new color. **SIZES** XS (S, M, L, 1X) (2X, 3X, 4X, 5X) Shown in S size. **FINISHED MEASUREMENTS** Bust: 38½ (42, 45½, 49½, 54) (58½, 63, 66, 71½)” Length: 22¼ (24, 25¾, 25, 24) (25¾, 27½, 27, 29)” **MATERIALS** Premier® Yarns Anti Pilling® Select (50% Anti-Pilling Acrylic, 50% Nylon; 3.5oz/100g, 185yds/170m) • CC1: 2179-05 Chrome – 5 (5, 6, 7, 7) (8, 9, 10, 11) balls • CC2: 2179-30 Pistachio – 4 (4, 5, 5, 6) (7, 7, 8, 9) balls • CC3: 2179-25 Lilac – 1 ball, all sizes Hook: US Size 7 (4.5 mm) or size needed to obtain gauge Notions: Tapestry needle **GAUGE** 16 sts x 16 rows = 4" in patt.
