Transformation Sweater-New FREE Pattern
One of my newest FREE patterns on the Red Heart Yarn website is the Transformation Sweater. This is one of those pieces that can be worn in so many different ways that you will be able to get a lot of use out of it. It also uses one of Red Hearts newer yarns, Fashion Soft.
Fashion Soft is another in the family of the Red Heart Soft yarn that you love already. The other week we talked about Soft Essentials that just came out, an exclusive yarn with Michaels, which was a bulky weight yarn. Now Red Heart has a DK weight (3) in Soft as well, Fashion Soft. This is the perfect yarn choice for making garments.
There are already a few FREE patterns on Red Heart’s website using this yarn and one of them is my NEW Transformation Sweater. Fashion soft comes in 8 beautiful solid colors. You can mix and match them to come up with the combination that fits you best.
The Transformation Sweater gets its name from the many different ways that you can style it. The construction is very simple, perfect for those wanting to try their first garment piece. Designed using blank stitches you will get a look that resembles Tunisian, but isn’t Tunisian.
From the photo you can see that the sweater is made up of two different rectangles that are connected with two openings for your arms. I told you it was an easy construction! There is no shaping in the project and it comes in size small to XXL.
Below you will see some of the ways that you can wear the sweater.
Wearing Options for the Transformation Sweater:
- Cowl neck sweater (small or large cowl)
- Boat neck sweater
- Hooded cowl
