New to crochet or just intimidated by making sweaters? This pattern is for you!

Yes, it’s true, this pattern has it all — style and simplicity. It’s a gorgeous sweater that amazingly is constructed from a rectangle. Yes, that means no fancy increases and decreases to give the sweater form and shape. This is a perfect project for a beginner. In a very short time you’ll have a beautiful garment to wear. Who knows, you may want to crochet another one and another one!

This fabulous pattern and video tutorial are both free! It’s the Dwell Sweater, and it’s an original by crochet designer and crafts blogger Jess Coppom of Make & Do Crew. You’ll get the full rundown — including a complete written pattern as well as a link to her excellent video tutorial. If you prefer following along with video rather than reading the pattern, she’s got you covered. Either way, you can complete this sweater even if it’s one of your very first projects!
