One question, I ‘need’ to crochet a sweater like this for a friend, he wears a 3X tho. Is there an easy way to make the pattern do that size? Thanks for your beautiful work! Best ‘ugly’ Christmas sweater I’ve seen!!

The good news is that this is a top-down sweater, so it’s try-on-as-you-go. The beginning chain is the neck, so try it out! It might be the right size for you. To increase the chest circumference, try it on at about rnd 14 and see how much more room you need. Measure how many stitches you need to add that much more fabric, then add those increases in the next row. You can either space them evenly (for bigger all around) or space them evenly across one half of the round (for just bigger in the front). Then you’re going to have to try it on as you determine how many stitches to reserve for armholes, how many to leave as body, etc. My advice is that if you’re adding bust shaping, be sure to mark which side of the sweater it is!

Good luck!
