From Crochet Summer Top to Cozy Sweater. How I'm adjusting the pattern

I’m joining the crochet along (CAL) hosted by Holly from Stitches Gonna Stitch! The CAL features my Water Lily Summer Top pattern, but since I already have my top finished, I decided to try something different. I’m adjusting the pattern to make a cozy sweater version. I’ll share my progress, talk about gauge and swatching, and show you how I’m planning the adjustments. If you’re thinking about customizing your crochet garments or turning a summer design into something warm and comfy for cooler weather, I hope this video gives you some inspiration!
