What is Being Made

The Mallorie Sweater is a women's crocheted pullover available in sizes XS through XL. This design offers two length options: a cropped version and a full-length version, allowing crafters to customize their finished garment. The sweater is suitable for beginners looking to develop their crochet skills while creating a wearable piece.

Crochet Techniques Used

The Mallorie Sweater employs fundamental crochet construction methods appropriate for beginner-level crafters. The pattern is worked in the round, beginning at the bottom edge of the sweater and progressing upward to the armpit shaping. After establishing the body circumference, the pattern transitions to working in rows to shape the front and back pieces separately, allowing for proper garment fit and structure.

Stitches Used

• Single crochet (sc) – the primary stitch used throughout the pattern, providing a dense, structured fabric
• Chain (ch) – used for foundation chains and pattern construction
• Slip stitch (slst) – used for joining rounds and connecting pieces
• Double treble crochet (dtr) – included in the pattern key for stitch variety

Materials and Specifications

The Mallorie Sweater is designed to work with sport weight yarn (#2 Fine). The original design was created using Cascade Ultra Pima Fine in Tangerine. Yardage requirements vary by size and length option: the cropped version requires 816 to 953 yards depending on size, while the full-length version requires 1,400 to 1,600 yards. A size H (5mm) crochet hook is used to achieve the specified gauge of 15 single crochet stitches over 4 inches. Additional materials include a tapestry needle for weaving in yarn ends and a measuring tape for checking sizing throughout construction.
