If you’ve got a wild hair and an abundance of fur yarn, this men’s quarter zip sherpa pattern could be exactly what the doctor ordered. This sherpa pattern comes in one size, and is a free crochet pattern.

Men's Sherpa Pattern

Quarter Zip Sherpa Pattern

My husband Paul had a favorite (mass produced) quarter zip sherpa style pullover that he loved. He loved it so much, in fact, that it is now beyond wearing outside of the house.

When he spotted my stash of Fable Fur yarn, I knew I had to design a new, super warm sherpa pattern for him to wear.  He wanted a quarter zip pullover, and I am so pleased with how this turned out!

This pattern comes in one size: men’s extra large. You can easily adjust it to a men’s large or up to a 2XL. To do this, you’ll first find the gauge with the recommended yarn (weight) and hook size. If you would like to make yours a bit smaller, go down a hook size from what it took to obtain gauge, and if you would like your pullover to come out a bit larger, go up a hook size. More on gauge here.

Don’t you think this would also work great as a vest, if you chose to leave the sleeves off?! I may need to make one for me next!

Find the ad-free printable version of this pattern on Ravelry, Etsy, or in the Heart Hook Home shop.

Materials:

Fable Fur
-approx. 1,000 yards as written
(always buy a bit extra)

Crochet hook in size 7mm

Zipper (optional)

Gauge: 8 sts x 5.5 rows = 4″ square

Pattern Notes:

Pattern written US terms.

The chain at the beginning of the row does not count as a stitch.

Before starting, I highly recommend reading these tips for working with fur yarn.

Pattern is ONE SIZE: XL. If you would like to size down a bit, use a smaller hook size. To size up a bit, use a larger hook size (from what it took to obtain gauge).

Dimensions as written:

Bust: 48″ Upper arm: 18″ Neck to hem length: 27″

Front:

Leaving 6 sts free, from where you crocheted the “back”, attach in the 7th st.

Left:

Looking at the inside of the pullover, insert hook in the marked stitch from row 38.

Row 39: Ch-1, hdc in 21 sts only. (21) This should leave one unworked st in the center of the chest.

Rows 40 – 48: Ch-1, turn, hdc in each st to end. (21)

*row 48 should end on the inside (near the sternum). Do not fasten off here, we will use this for the collar.

Rows 22 – 33: Ch-1, turn, hdc in each st around. Join. (25)

Fasten off and weave in ends.

If desired, add a zipper. To do this, partially open the zipper and pin it into place starting at the top and working your way down. Using needle and thread that matches the zipper fabric, securely sew the zipper into place. Add a stopper to the zipper just below the separation at the sternum and trim. See a more in-depth tutorial on adding a zipper to crochet wearbles here.
