sylvia jumper
The Sylvia Jumper is smock-style garment that really plays around with contrasting textures and shapes! With a wide neck, drop shoulders and ¾ length sleeves, it’s designed to be a fun garment for all bodies. It’s got a simple upper body, with fun granny squares worked and joined to create the lower part of the smock jumper.
I really love smock tops, so I wanted to see if I could achieve a similar drape effect with crochet and it worked! The granny square bottom panel allows you to throw some colour and personality into your garment whilst retaining a classic silhouette.
Use Sylvia as a way to play around with wild colours, or go for a cohesive and tonal palette it’s completely up to you. It is an intermediate pattern, but I encourage confident beginners to have a go!
