Wrap yourself in delicate softness and bohemian charm with the Bloom Sweater crochet pattern — a truly elegant garment constructed entirely from lace granny squares. This unique design by Enida Avdic features a visually striking layout where squares are arranged in a diamond formation and worked using two strands of lace weight #0 mohair yarn for a plush, cloud-like texture.
The sweater is crocheted using a 4 mm crochet hook, but feel free to adjust the hook size to match your personal tension. Each square is made up of puff stitches, loop stitches, and long double crochet, creating a highly textured and floral-like motif. The squares are connected as you go, forming the main body and sleeves, while half granny squares are used along the bottom and sleeves to shape straight edges. This construction method ensures minimal seaming and a clean finish.
You can completely customize the Bloom Sweater to suit your preferences. Opt for cropped or extended lengths, full-length sleeves, short sleeves, or sleeveless styles. The original pattern offers sizes 1 through 7, accommodating bust measurements from 73 cm to 180 cm. The sweater is designed with positive ease of around 3 cm, providing a relaxed, comfortable fit.
The pattern uses Go Handmade's Deli Mohair yarn (50% acrylic, 40% wool, 10% mohair), available in soft, airy shades like “Kit” and “Slightly Green.” Depending on the size, you’ll need approximately:
Size 1: 140 g
Size 2: 160 g
Size 3: 180 g
Size 4: 210 g
Size 5: 280 g
Size 6: 320 g
Each size specifies how many rows each granny square and sleeve section requires, ensuring a perfect fit. The instructions include photo tutorials and video links for key techniques like connecting the granny squares, shaping the armholes, and finishing the edges.
Ideal for confident beginners and seasoned crocheters alike, the Bloom Sweater is more than a cozy project—it’s a showcase of creativity and craftsmanship. Whether styled with jeans, layered over a dress, or worn as a statement piece, this sweater is sure to turn heads.
