Free Adult Crochet Crew Neck Pullover Pattern

Confusing instructions

I’m currently working on the [Pattern Name] (Men’s Pullover) and I’ve reached the armhole shaping on the back panel. The instructions say: “Skip first 8 sts, join yarn with sl st to next dc, ch 1, 1 sc in same sp as last sl st, pattern across next 50 sts.” However, in my stitch sequence, after skipping 8 stitches from the edge, the 9th stitch is a SC and the 10th is the next DC. So to follow the instruction literally (“join to next dc”), I have to skip 9 stitches instead of 8, which leaves 7 unworked stitches at the opposite side instead of 8. Could you please confirm whether this is correct — that the join should be made into the first DC (even if it means skipping 9 stitches) — or if the intention was to join after skipping exactly 8 stitches regardless of stitch type? Thank you very much for your time and for clarifying this detail!

• The intention is to join the yarn after skipping exactly 8 sts. Your 9th stitch should be a dc if you last worked a WS row as stated in the previous section of the pattern. If you did not end on a WS row, measure your work again to be sure it is 16-inches (for women’s version) or 17- inches (for men’s version) long. If it is short of or exactly on 16” (or 17”) work a WS row before proceeding to the “Shape Armholes” section. If it is too long, you may opt to rip out one row so the last row worked was a WS row.

My go to pattern

Have been using this pattern for years. Have made it 40+ times. Use it for cardigans also. Use my own stitches. Great pattern, easy to follow.

terrible

the body was ok, but the sleeves are horrid. completely disproportionate and an overall waist of yarn and time.

Beautiful sweater pattern

I really love this pattern. I have made 5 of these sweaters and they all came out great. My husband got a complement from a coworker last week. He said it was the nicest Crochet sweater he had ever seen. I am currently working on 3 more now. I have used all kinds of yarn and I use a 4.5 mm for cuffs and a 5.5 mm for The main body. The pattern is easy to understand and Great for a beginner.

Perfect go-to pattern

I have always seen a handmade sweater as the perfect gift. I have made 3 of these sweaters, and they all turned out beautifully! This pattern is quick and easy and my ultimate go-to crochet sweater pattern. If I had to choose another pattern as my go-to, it would be a crochet sweater that is a bit more relaxed and loose fitting but other than that, the stitch is beautiful and the sizing is accurate.

Hi, just a question about the front, the pattern days work from * to * as given for the back, cont even in pat over 49 it's until armhole measures 8 rows less thank ack. Does this mean the front its 12 stitches smaller than the back? thanks

On the sleeve, when it says “Repeat 3rd to 6th rows 2 (3-3-4-6-7) times more, does this mean inclusive of the 6th row (as in 2 increases per repeat). There is only 1 increase in the 3 “Next row” rows. Thanks

Confused with Front instruction where it says x amount of sts until armhole measures 8 rows less than back to shoulder???

Where can I find the schematic for setting in the sleeves? Another question was answered by saying there is a schematic but I can’t find it

How long does it take to make this sweater?

I’m about to start the finishing section, do I put right sides of the panels together to sew up the left shoulder seam and keep it like that until everything’s joined? Thanks

On the sleeves, where it says "Cont even in pat until work from lower edge measures", does this mean from the very first row we did of the sleeves or where the increasing rows stop?

Working on Medium size sleeve. I have the sleeve at the finished length of 20in long. It is not long enough for my husband's arm, can I add 2 more inches to the sleeves?

Sleeve: do you continue to increase the stitches up to 18 inches? Or do you stop increasing after the "next rows" section? Picture shows sleeve increases until last few rows

Hi, I'm about to start the sleeves but I'm a bit confused by the section: "Sew in sleeves, placing rows above markers along unworked sts of Front and Back to form square armholes." I don't understand what I'm supposed to do.
