Charlotte Sweater

By Claire Montgomerie

Find the complete pattern in Inside Crochet Issue #74

This simple sweater works up super-fast due to the chunky yarn used, but some gentle waist shaping ensures it remains flattering.

Materials

* Twilleys Freedom Wool, 100% wool, 50g/50m/55yds
Shade: Oyster Grey 1122 x 10 (10, 11, 13, 15, 17) balls

* 10mm hook

Yarn Alternatives

A chunky-weight yarn will substitute well here. Twilleys Freedom Wool is a lightweight, soft and warm roving yarn, so look out for those properties in an alternative. 

Errata

Body

Divide for armholes as follows:

Rnd 1: 2ch, *1htr in each st to next 1ch-sp, 1htr in 1ch-sp, 1htr in rtrf, miss 1ch-sp, 1ch, miss next 14htr for sleeve, miss next 1ch-sp, 1htr in rtrf, 1htr in next 1ch-sp; rep from * once more, 1htr in each st to end – 50htr.
