The perfect cozy sweater for the fish-lovers! 🐟
This crochet pattern originated as a tribute to my partner, Aleksander, who is the other half of Wool & Buggers. I do the wool (crocheting), and Aleks does the buggers (fly tying).
The sweater features a perch – which is Aleks preferred fish to fish for – but can easily be changed into any other fish, by modifying the colors. 🐡🐠🐬
Since the Fishy Aleks Sweater is a graded pattern in sizes XS – 5XL, it is also easy to gift – no need to ask for measurements and spoil the surprise!
