Custom Crocheted Sweaters

Custom Crochet Sweaters not only demystifies what goes into making patterns, but also shows how to easily adapt them to fit your body beautifully! You'll explore how a design can be adjusted so that it's more relaxed, for instance and how a neckline can be moved either up or down. Learn as you go by crocheting 10 stylish projects with dropped-shoulder, raglan, fitted sleeve, round-yoke and top-down constructions, giving your creativity free reign.
In this book you'll learn how to:
