I made the Lion Brand yarn free pattern Elegant Shell. It’s for me. It’s a bit heavier than I wanted since I made it as a stash buster using mostly Red Heart acrylic (not usually a clothing choice for me :)). I ran out of yarn and wasn’t able to nicely finish the arm holes. When it’s on you can’t really tell, so I don’t know if I’m going to buy yarn just for that, especially dealing with color changes. The pattern is pretty easy to follow. If I made it again I think I’d modify the front panel to make it more of a scoop neck or v-neck.

You’re brave crocheting clothes, the first and last time I did that, the sweater was very nice but looked horrible on me.
Also, I’d suggest you move this to the Finished Projects category rather than in the Discussion.

I think this is neat. I watched a show, and the character was always wearing these really cool knit/crochet tops. This would fit right in!

This came out great! I have been wanting to knit a vest-style wearable. Inspired!
Thanks for pointing this out, Cindy! I moved it.

Pretty colors! This turned out great!
I’d love to learn how to make something other than scarves and socks on a loom.
