Modern Crew

Designer: Jeane deCoster

These PDF patterns are re-useable, interactive, and sized just for You!

Tailor and re-use the patterns for a wide range of adult-sized body measurements.

Crew necklines with a rolled edge at the neck and sleeves are a bit of "modern". And, when knit as a loose-fitting boxy shape -- they are easy-to-knit and easy-to-wear. The Modern Crew is a stylish, wearable, sweatshirt-style sweater that fits!

You can wear these sweaters anywhere. Throw one on over a t-shirt or thermal as that extra warm layer on a crisp morning before everything heats up. Wear this as an extra layer to the ball game, fishing on the river or just weeding in the garden on a cool spring or fall day.

The Modern Crew is a “bottom-up” sweater with seams. To me, the combination of proper measurements and seams make for a better fitting garment. With set-in sleeves positioned properly at the shoulder (and a flattering length) this sweater is a classic, comfortable addition that will be welcome in any wardrobe.

Designed with 6” of total ease at the bust, additional options in this pattern provide a plethora of pattern choices:

Select garment length, sleeve length, bust dart short-rows, add a vent?, make the vent longer in back?
