Craft a cozy sweater! This project is a great way to see your skills come to life and understand the basics of crocheting made-to-measure garments.

Start by choosing a color for the sweater and another for the surface design. Then, crochet the panels, assemble them together, and design with surface crochet. By the end of the class, you’ll have a complete, custom-designed sweater and the foundational skills needed to tackle more complex crochet projects!

Materials

Yarn: medium (worsted) weight acrylic, wool, or cotton yarn (suggested quantity: 1-2 skeins depending on the size of your plushie/stuffed animal)
Crochet Hook: 4, 4.5, or 5 mm
Yarn Needle: for assembly and weaving in ends
Scissors: for cutting yarn

Share your progress!
Upload a photo of your first piece, showcase the color palette for your sweater, compare the before-and-afters, or anything in between. I’d love to give feedback and see your crochet plushies come to life! Tag me @mahumcrochets and use the #crochetwithmahum to share your work with my community on Instagram and TikTok.
