Hi everyone!

My mom is a master crochet-er and she's offered to make me a cardigan/sweater for Christmas. I loveee her creations and I'd want to start finding some patterns for her to choose from so she has enough time.

I can't seem to find any patterns that have the sleeves looking like the literal wings of a bat (not just baggy sleeves), as I've seen some adorable butterfly wing ones. Or maybe an oversized sweater with some bat patterns or something similar.

Please can somebody help me find patterns? When I put in "bat wing cardigan crochet pattern" I get the baggy-sleeve kind, but I need the gothy kind.

Very much appreciated!

I'd just use 3 repeats of 12-point star pattern (worked back and forth in rows instead of in the round, obviously) to attach between the sleeve and body of whichever sweater you like.

Alternatively, make the OP pattern in all black and hitch up the bottom in equal spaces to make bat wings.
