Knitted Sweater with Crocheted Granny Sleeves

Knitted Sweater with Crocheted Granny Sleeves Kit

Can’t decide between knitting and crocheting? With this unique sweater, you don’t have to! The Knitted Sweater with Crocheted Granny Sleeves combines both techniques. The front and back panels are knitted in a beautiful brioche stitch, while the eye-catching sleeves are made up of colorful crocheted Granny Squares.

The combination of the soft, flowing knit and the openwork granny sleeves gives the sweater an airy look. It’s perfect for cooler summer evenings, but also fun to pair with your favorite outfit at other times of the year.

The sweater is made with Yarn and Colors Baby Fabulous, a yarn composed of 45% Cotton and 55% Acrylic.
