Hello There! In todays free pattern I am sharing a simple and
amazing to make up with scrap/left over yarn design called
the “Polly Pullover”.
I have been inspired lately (and have even got a few
requests) to make more patterns that will help you use up
your yarn stash! I love doing this because its a great money-
saver, more sustainable, helps eliminate waste (from all
those half-used skeins I most likely am never gonna use
again) AND it helps me feel make room for new yarn I bring
into my home!
I have made 2 versions of this pullover, one with random
skeins of 100% acrylic yarn and one from 100% cotton yarn
left over from my Daisy Flower Coasters, but you can really
use ANY type of yarn. Whats really fun with this design is
that you can mix weights and fibers (acrylic, cotton, mohair,
wool, etc.) and it will help you create a beautiful, one-of-a-
kind garment!
                             ···
You can also size up or down in your hook size depending
on how loose or tight you want your stitches to be.
AND if Triple/Treble Crochet Stitches are not your vibe, you
can make this with Double Crochet or Single Crochet (or a
mix of them!), the possibilities are pretty much endless with
this scrappy pullover! I personally like the look of the triple
crochet because I feel it gives this garment an airy, easy-
breezy, effortless look.
             ···
Another cool thing about this design is that it can be made
intoAdANY size! You can make it as big or as small, as long or
as short as you want! Its up to you and your preferences!

              PRESCRIBING INFO      MEDICATION GUIDE
          IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
          What is the most important information I
          should know about TREMFYA®?
          TREMFYA® is a prescription medicine that may
          cause serious side effects, including:
Level: Easy
MATERIALS
Scrap yarn – How much yarn needed all depends on what
type of yarn/weight you choose for your pullover. One of the
versions I made is made up of various 100% Acrylic Medium
Weight/Worsted (4) Yarns and the other is made of up left
over 100% Cotton Medium Weight/Worsted (4) Yarn. Don’t
be afraid to mix brands~!
I used 400grams for the Acrylic version and 365grams of
yarn for the Cotton version.
6.00mm Crochet Hook – You can size up or down in your
hook depending on how “mesh-like” you want your sweater.
Scissors
Darning Needle
Stitch Markers – (I personally don’t use a stitch marker for
this pattern, but if you easily lose track of where you started
or are a beginner, stitch markers are very helpful.)
STITCHES + ABBREVIATIONS
Ch = Chain
St(s) = Stitch(es)
TC = Triple/Treble Crochet
                            ···
Tc2tog = Triple Crochet Two Together
Pattern Notes
*This pattern can be made in ANY size. I will be giving the
basic instructions of how I made mine for my size (S/M), but
will have plenty of tips on how to make it to fit you. (I am a
typical size small and made mine a tad oversized.)
*This pattern follows US crochet terms.
*Turning Ch 3 does NOT count as a stitch.
*Number of stitches indicated between “<>“.
               Polly Pullover Pattern
Front Panel
Foundation Chain: Ch as long as you roughly want the
drop of you shoulders to be, I chained 48+3 (the +3 for the
turning ch).
                           ···
Row 1: Tc in the 4th ch from the hook, tc in the next 46
ch/however many ch you have until you have 1 ch left (In the
last ch we will be a form of Tc2tog in the same ch AND also
working a new color in for our color change), *in the last ch
yarn over twice, insert your hook, pick up a loop, yarn over
and pull through 2 loops, yarn over and pull through 2 more
loops, yarn over twice and insert your hook back into the
SAME ch, pick up a loop, yarn over and pull through 2 loops,
yarn over and pull through 2 more loops, with 3 loops left on
your hook (if changing colors) pull new yarn through the last
3 loops. (the tc2tog just worked counts as 1 st) <48>
*You will be repeating the tc2tog in the last st of EVERY
ROW to help keep the edges of your panels more even and
smooth.
TIP! If working with multiple colors, crochet OVER your
ends as your go so you don’t have to weave them all in at
the end! I briefly show how I do it in my Video Tutorial for
this pattern If you’d like to see how to do it.
Row 2: Turn your work and Ch 3. Tc in each st until the end
of the row (remembering to tc2tog in the last st and working
your new color in before you finish the st off.) <48>
Row 3-14/however long or short you want your sweater
to be: Repeat rows 1-2.
(Here is where you can play with the length you prefer. For
my cotton version I worked 14 rows and for the acrylic
version I only worked 16 rows.) <48>
                            ···
Repeat for Back Panel.
Sleeves
Foundation Chain: Ch as long as you roughly need for the
circumference around your arm. I chained 48+3 as I did for
my front and back panels.
                          ···
Rows 1-18/however long or short you want your sleeves
to be: Repeat the same process as you did for your front
and back panels.
(I’ve had a few people ask if its possible to make a short
sleeved version of this sweater and the answer is YES! Add
as many or as few rows as you want for your desired length.
You can even make it with no sleeves if you want more of a
vest-type of top. For my cotton version I worked 18 rows
and for my acrylic version I worked only 20 rows.)
Repeat for second Sleeve.
If you need some visual help, you can check out my
YouTube Video Here.
NOW, time to join all your panels together! You can use
whatever method you’d like to join your pieces together,
such as single crocheting them together (as I did) or using a
darning needle and thread/yarn.
                           ···
Weave in your ends and…
YOU’RE FINISHED!
                            ···

Thank you so much          . I’ve been looking for a pattern like
this for ages. At one point I gave up on looking but then I
came across a video of yours on tiktok with the fruit pouch
thingies and I decided to check out the pattern on your
page. I also looked through the other patterns (which are all
lovely by the way) and found this one. I love it so much,
starting one right now
