Vintage Patchwork Sweater

This sweater is made up of front body, back body, sleeves, connections, collar, cuffs, hem, and motifs. First, crochet the front body, back body, and sleeves separately. During this process, join the shoulders of the front and back bodies to the corresponding body sections. Then attach the sleeves. After that's done, pick up stitches along the sleeve edges and crochet the cuffs. Next, pick up stitches along the bottom edges of the front and back bodies and work the hem. Finally, pick up stitches around the neckline and crochet the collar.

Note: Hand-measured, with a possible error of 1–2 cm. Due to differences in individual tension, the sample size is for reference only.

Materials : For the main part, use  Alpaca  4-ply (4 strands worked as one). For motifs, use  Alpaca 2-ply (2 strands worked as one).  
Tools: 4.00 mm Crochet Hook & 3.00 Crochet Hook (for cuffs, collar, hem, and motifs).
