Pattern Overview

The sweater is created by crocheting individual flower motifs and connecting them to form the body and sleeves. Each flower motif is built from a series of chains and double crochets, with spaces left to form the lacy effect.

Flower Motif (Make multiple according to size)

Start: Chain 25 (This forms the first flower. Adjust the number of chains in multiples of 25 for bigger sizes or additional flowers).

1. Row 1: Double crochet (dc) in the 3rd chain from the hook. Dc in each chain across. You will have a total of 23 dc (The initial 2 chains count as a dc). Turn your work.
2. Row 2: Chain 2 (counts as first dc now and throughout), dc in the next stitch and across for a total of 23 dc. Turn your work.
3. Continue the Pattern to Build the Flower Motif: The flower motif construction involves creating chain spaces with double crochets in between to form a flower-like appearance. This is a repeating pattern that involves skipping stitches (for spaces) and dc in consecutive stitches.

Joining Flower Motifs

Lay out your flower motifs to form the body and sleeves according to your desired size.

• Whip stitch the motifs together at their sides to create the panels for the front, back, and sleeves.

Creating the Body

Front and Back Panels: Construct 2 panels with your desired number of flowers wide and high. Join these panels at the shoulders and sides, leaving openings for the head and arms.

• Sleeves: Attach yarn at the arm openings, creating rows of flower motifs around for each sleeve. Adjust the number of flowers to achieve your preferred sleeve length.

Finishing Touches

For neat edges, crochet a border of single crochet (sc) or slip stitch (sl st) all around the neckline, bottom hem, and sleeve openings.

1. Block the sweater to even out the stitches and motifs.

Additional Tips

• Adjusting Size: Increase or decrease the number of flower motifs to adjust the size.
• Sleeve Variation: For a sleeveless version, simply finish the armhole edges without adding sleeve motifs.
