Sweater Crochet

 

Hi friends, welcome back to my blog. I was waiting to do sweater crochet.

Due to the pandemic and lockdown, yarn was in scarcity. So waiting for a fine day to start.

Seeing me wait, my hubby bought 12 colors of yarn. He is a great support indeed. Then I started this project.

Today we will see sweater crochet. Let's get started.

Step 2 : 1 DC on the 3rd chain from hook.
