Simple Crochet Jumper
This fabulous crochet jumper is super simple to make using just trebles and is easy to size up or down depending on how baggy you would like it. You begin the sweater at the neck, increasing regularly at the raglan shoulder points. You can try the jumper on as you go, so it is easy to work out when you have got the size exactly right.
The pattern comes in 3 sizes, small, medium and large and requires 7 (8, 9) skeins of Plump . You also need a 12mm crochet hook.

Our model Clara is wearing the small size in Bon Bon. We've made it a loose fit for a slightly more 'punky' feel.
Plump Superchunky is a pretty standard superchunky (superbulky) weight yarn and can be substituted as such. You should be careful to check the length of yarn per ball as well as the weight. Alpaca is denser that a lot of other fibres so doesn't go quite as far as some. Plump has 70m per 100g.
When working out which hook to use, bear in mind that Susan and Karen are quite loose crocheters. If you know you crochet tightly, go up at least one hook size to make sure you get the lovely softness and drape in the project you are making that the yarn can give.
Ballband Tension (gauge):
Using a 10mm needle over stocking stitch 10sts to 10cm.
We really recommend not getting too stressed about exact tensions. Everyone crochets differently and your tension can even change with your mood! If you have found a yarn you really like and it's in the right ball park, why not buy a ball and give it a go? Try a slightly different hook size if you are way off the right tension. If you are putting all the effort into creating then best to use a yarn you love!
