Holey, Holey, Holey: Why We Love A Crochet Sweater

Crochet has long belonged in the realm of the crafty, the Etsy-store-owners, the grandmothers of the planet. But what if you don’t fit into any of those boxes? We’re here to say that a crochet sweater is for you, too.

Not so sure? Read on to learn why we think so highly of this cozy pullover.

It Transitions Perfectly

When would you want a sweater that’s full of holes? When you’re dealing with warm weather full of cool spots or cool weather with a little bit of heat. In short: crochet sweaters are perfect for the days between seasons, for those days when you’re wearing jeans but running barefoot or pairing your shorts with boots.

It’s Full Of Personality

Unlike your average, run-of-the-mill sweater, a crochet sweater intrinsically has more character by virtue of being just a little bit unexpected. This means it can become an even better conduit for communicating your personality. So whether you decide to make it edgy by pairing it with ripped jeans and heavy-duty boots or girly by pairing it with a swishy skirt, your crochet sweater will help you do you.

It Layers Impeccably

When you need a good layer that can easily be added to or subtracted from any outfit, a crochet sweater does the trick. It even lets you see the layer underneath it, so have fun playing up this peekaboo quality by wearing a patterned long-sleeve T-shirt underneath for lots of coverage or just eye-catching lingerie for a flirtier look.

When it comes to a sweater, you can’t ask for much more than these crocheted wonders offer.

Crochet is for cool kids.
