Meet Lena from TheMailoDesign

My name is Lena, I’m from Latvia, and I’m addicted to crochet as much as you. I’ve been crocheting since I remember myself, but the idea about creating patterns and learning classes came to me only after my first childbirth. Many ideas about crochet designs come to my mind during the nighttime while getting the baby to sleep, all moms will understand what I mean 🙂 My main goal is to create modern and stylish crochet garments using simple stitches. As a result, even beginners will be able to create a beautiful piece of clothing. On Instagram, www.instagram.com/themailodesign you can find free and paid patterns created by me, crochet tips and tricks, video tutorials, and other crochet-related posts. Free patterns can be downloaded from our web www.themailodesign.com

The Pattern

The design of No Name Sweater is a bottom-up crochet sweater and it’s one of my favorites, because it’s very comfortable on warmer days, and it perfectly goes with cuffed jeans, leggings, or faux leather leggings. If you like simple and comfortable clothing, this sweater design is for you.

No Name Sweater Pattern Instructions

This is a bottom-up, drop shoulder sweater and it is made from a front panel, a back panel, and a panel for each of the sleeves. We will start from ribbing of the front panel.

Using your 5 mm (H) hook (or size required for gauge):

No Name Sweater Front Panel

Front Ribbing

Row 1: 15 ch, starting from the 3rd ch from the hook, make hdc in each ch across, turn. [13 hdc]

Row 2: 2 ch, hdc tlo across, turn. [13 hdc tlo]

See Special Stitches Section above for photo tutorial for hdc tlo

Rep Row 2 until you have 55 rows in total, or until the front ribbing measures 20 inches long (52 cm long).

Now we will start the body of the sweater.

Front Panel of Sweater

The body of the sweater is crocheted directly into the ribbing.

Front Panel - Row 1 - No Name Sweater - TheMailODesign

Row 1: 1 ch, sc across the edge of the ribbing section, turn. [85 sc]

TIP: You will be working 3 sc for every 2 row ends, plus 2 sc for the last row end.

Front Panel - Row 1 - No Name Sweater - TheMailODesign

Row 2: 1 ch, *6 sc, 2 sc in one st, repeat from * until the last st, 1 sc in the last st, turn. [97 sc]

Useful Tip: If in the last row the number of stitches is not divisible by 12+1, then make one more sc row and make a correction by adding or decreasing to the necessary number of stitches.

HOW DO I KNOW? Take the total number of stitches you have from Row 2, subtract 1 and then divide by 12 to check if the number of stitches you have can by divided the pattern repeat.

Main Body

Row 1: 3 ch (in all rows counts as stitch), 2 dc in the same st, 3 ch, skip 4, 3dctog, 3 ch, skip 4, *5 dc in one st, 3 ch, skip 4, 3dctog, 3 ch, skip 4, repeat from * until the end of the row, finish with 3 dc in last st.
