"This crochet sweater pattern is made of alternating stripes of puffs, beads, and bobbles. And if you think that’s fun to say, just wait until you wear it! The zigzag bobbles on the Beads and Bobbles Sweater feel like an updated version of a retro 90s piece.

Go nuts with the colors for a fun and vibrant statement, or stick to neutrals for a subdued feel with lots of texture. The sweater features a classic fit that’s flattering for all shapes and sized XS to 5XL.

This intermediate crochet pattern is worked in the round and includes easy sections of colorwork. My printable PDF pattern will walk you through the entire process, and your new sweater will keep you warm all winter long!"
