You’re going to love the crochet Gradvis Sweater, because it’s such a pleasure to make. It’s real fun because of the gradual color changes, but also because it’s a sweater that will gradually grow while you make it.

Why is it named Gradvis? Well, because that’s the Norwegian word for gradual & it describes the sweater very well.

The process of crocheting this sweater won’t be a fast one, but rather a slow process that’s truly unhurried. It’s like a slow meditative & exciting journey to see this sweater grow from a few hanks of yarn.

Crochet Gradvis Sweater - FREE Crochet PatternAbout the Crochet Gradvis Sweater

The crochet Gradvis Sweater is the perfect crochet sweater that uses hand dyed yarn.

It’s called “Gradvis” because it’s not a quick one day project, but it’s a sweater you’ll gradually finish as you make one stitch at a time. A meditative, calming & enjoyable piece to crochet.

You will need hand dyed yarn in 3 different colors to crochet this sweater.

What’s so great about it is the fact that it can be made in 9 different sizes, ranging from XS to 5XL. There’s also suggestions on how you can customize it to fit you perfectly.

The sweater is a little bit higher in the back of the neck for it to fit perfectly & also a little bit longer on the lower edging on the body.

Choose your favorite hand dyed yarn & enjoy this sweater pattern!

Gradual color changes

To crochet this sweater & achieve the gradual color changes as pictured, you will have to follow these instructions. This is optional & doesn’t have to be exact stitch by stitch.

The goals is to make a gradual, but not systematic change of color. This will make the different colors land randomly on top of each other.

When nearing the end of one color, you will have to start alternating between the yarn color you’re working with & the new color. This isn’t specified in the pattern & you will have to start this process when you feel you have less than 4-5 rounds left on your skein.

If you want the exact rounds the colors where changed on the sweater pictured, see a list below.

First color change round: 3 st with color A, 1 st with color B.

Second color change round: 3 st with color A, 1 st with color B.

Third color change round: 2 st with color B, 2 st with color A.

Fourth color change round: 2 st with color B, 2 st with color A.

Fifth color change round: 3 st with color B, 1 st with color A.

Sixth color change round: 3 st with color B, 1 st with color A.

This process should be repeated each time you change colors.

Be aware, that this should also be done evenly on color changes when working on both the sleeves & the body of the sweater.

Color changes on sweater pictured: 

Yoke: Round 28-34.
