Logan’s Sweater Free Crochet Pattern

Hello Everyone!

It’s day 6 of my 10 days of giving and we have the first sweater pattern of the blowout today. There will be one more sweater during this time and you can expect to see several more next month during my 12 days of Christmas.

This sweater works up quickly and is super cozy and warm making it a great option for a Holiday present for the men in your life. This project uses a combination of beginner friendly stitches to make a nice texture that’s perfect for sweaters.

Before we go…

As always I hope you all enjoyed today’s pattern. My fiancée has been asking me for a sweater for forever now so he definitely enjoyed today’s pattern. It was a lot of fun to make I love working the stitches where you alternate every other stitch its mindless enough to do while I watch tv but also isn’t so repetitive.
