If you have mastered the Granny Square then this is the perfect next project! The Basic Block is a great first garment as is an easy to make pattern and an easy to wear piece!

Crocheted in DK yarn and a block colour makes it the perfect multi season layering piece and a must have wardrobe staple, with a bonus of minimal ends to sew in!

The pattern gives you 2 options for Fit and Sleeve type, with the choice of Jumper or cardigan fit and ¾ length frill sleeves or Long Ruched cuff sleeves. The pattern comes in the new KJ Size range which fits an XS- 5XL and comes in 9 sizes between this range. The garment works great as a standard fit, or size up for a boxy fit- pick what’s best for you!

If you’re not sure how much ease you want in your fit my top tip is to take the measurement of one of your favourite jumpers you own. Lay this flat and take the front chest measurement and pick the closest size to this.

The sample is made in Knitcraft’s Cotton Blend yarn but any DK yarn will do, make it in wool for a winter warmer or cotton for a light layer- remeber that changing yarn may also effect yarn amounts. The pattern is written in both UK Crochet Terms and US Terms.
