Mama Hexagon Sweater
Hexagon Sweater is super easy and fun to make. It has an unusual hexagon shape. It’s more like a poncho – has a lot of positive ease. It will be perfect for any season!
The pattern includes sizes up to XXXL, however, due to its unusual shape it might not be very flattering on all XXL and XXXL body types. Below you will find some tips how to achieve the best result.
As it’s made in a hexagon shape the larger the size, the deeper V-neck will get. To adjust it you will need to make the neck edging wider, keep that in mind. As the V-neck is on both – back and front, I suggest to add a small strap on the back to prevent the sweater from slipping off the shoulders. Instructions how to do that are included.
For a better fit I suggest to work your stitches quite loose so that they drape better. Avoid 100% acrylic yarn (especially for larger sizes) as you can’t really block it and it tends to be quite stiff and it will not drape as it should. To see the final result - wash and block the garment (especially the bottom edging).
