Heart Sweater Crochet Pattern | Concentric Heart Oversized Jumper | Sizes XS–[XX] | PDF Instant Download

It starts as one small heart in the middle of the chest. Then you keep going round it, stripe after stripe, until the heart fills the whole front.

That's the entire idea, and it's why this sweater looks so striking: every stripe follows the heart shape outward, so the motif isn't sewn on — it is the fabric. The sleeves carry the same stripes, and a deep ribbed hem and cuffs finish it.

Oversized and relaxed, with dropped shoulders and full sleeves. Written across a full size range.
