Did I just find my new favorite cotton yarn? I think I did. Be prepared for so many designs using this yarn because I am obsessed! My first make using this yarn is called The Poppy Pullover!
I used Lion Brand 24/7 cotton DK for the Poppy Pullover crochet pattern. Don’t get it confused with the worsted weight version! The DK weight is obviously thinner and much more soft. It had no splitting and no tangles as I crocheted. I’m absolutely in love with it! I used the color Cacao for mine but they have a lot of pretty choices.
The Poppy Pullover is crocheted in separate panels from the bottom up. You’ll be using a larger hook in comparison to the yarn to give it more of a mesh look. It’s important to not pull your stitches tight. You want a relaxed and even tension so you can give it the perfect drape. Feel free to go up in hook size if you normally have a tight tension and/or your gauge is off. Once you have all your panels complete you will sew them together.
The Poppy Pullover is easy to make adjustments to. You can add or takeaway as many rows as you want on the back panel to adjust the length. Just be sure to make the same adjustments on the front panel as well, right before you split the neckline.
