It's been a while since I designed a new sweater, and honestly? I've been craving one. Something I could throw on with my favorite jeans for everyday wear; casual, comfortable, and effortless. That's exactly what inspired the Sway Sweater.

The perfect everyday sweater

I wanted a sweater that works with everything in my wardrobe. Jeans? Check. Leggings? Absolutely. Dress pants for a polished look? Yes! The A-line silhouette creates a flattering, flowing shape that drapes beautifully without clinging. It's that versatile piece you reach for again and again.

The extended single crochet stitch creates a soft, comfortable fabric with just the right amount of drape, not too stiff, not too loose. It falls naturally and moves with you, making it perfect for all-day wear.

Beginner-friendly construction

Even if you've never made a sweater before, the Sway Sweater is the perfect place to start. Worked seamlessly from the top down with a raglan yoke construction, there's no seaming at the end (my favorite part!). You can try it on as you go and adjust the length to exactly what you want.

Style it your way

The beauty of the Sway Sweater is its versatility. Tuck it into high-waisted jeans for a casual weekend look, pair it with leggings for cozy days at home, or dress it up with trousers and statement jewelry for a more polished outfit. The A-line shape is forgiving and flattering on all body types.

I made mine in a rich bordeaux cotton, but this pattern would be stunning in any color like classic neutrals, soft pastels, or bold jewel tones. The extended single crochet stitch showcases yarn beautifully, so have fun choosing your perfect shade!
