Brambling Sweater
Crochet Pattern

A simple boxy sweater for children. The front and back pieces are identical, designed so that it can be worn either way around – makes getting dressed simpler for little ones. Plenty of room in the arms, and cosy ribbing around the cuffs and neck.

You will need DK yarn and a 4 mm / G hook.
Designed for 100% cotton yarn, but you can use any DK yarn, eg acrylic, wool.
