Crochet Patterns

by Katrin Affolter

Many of my projects start with an idea, but without a concrete pattern or instructions. I try to write understandable patterns that hopefully not only I can follow. Unfortunately, I don't have anyone who I can give them to read through and repeat. Therefore, my patterns may not always be clearly formulated or may even contain errors. So don't be afraid to write to me if you have any questions or find errors.

Remarks

My mother, for whom I crocheted this sweater, could not decide if she wants the elephant one the back or in the front. That was the reason, why we decided to make the sweater wearable in both directions. Now she can wear it however she wants whenever she wants.

 

I added a row of single crochets around the neckline. My mother loved it already without it. But I do prefer it, so I added it.
