This sweater uses special stitches that give the sweater a fun texture. It is crocheted from the top down with the hood and sleeves added after the body is crocheted. Features a ribbed texture around the sleeves, bottom, sides, and the hood. You can choose to crochet either long or short sleeves, the pattern includes instructions for both.
