Roman Shoppers Rush for £30 Crochet Sleeve Jumper

Roman shoppers are racing to get their hands on one of its most eye-catching and unique jumpers ahead of the autumn and winter months. With so many knits available for the upcoming season, Roman's Crochet Sleeve Knit Jumper stands out from the crowd with its pretty boho-inspired crochet knit and vibrant pattern, but can easily be thrown on with virtually any pair of jeans or trousers.

Price and Discount Codes

The Crochet Sleeve Knit Jumper costs £40, but new shoppers who use the exclusive code AFRPLC25Q226 can get it for £30. This code is valid for all new shoppers on full-price products sitewide. Existing Roman shoppers can also bag themselves a discount with the code LOOK at checkout, which brings its price down to £36. Both options include free express delivery, if you're in a hurry.

Design and Reviews

A description of the Crochet Sleeve Knit Jumper on the Roman website reads: "This crew neck jumper boasts intricate crochet detailing on the sleeves for a touch of boho charm. The long sleeves add extra cosiness, while the mix of knitted fabrics ensures both comfort and style all day long." Pair with wide leg jeans for a complete look that is perfect for any casual outing. The jumper is fully machine washable, and comes in two colourways to choose from - black or cream.

Giving the crochet knit five stars, one mature shopper commented on how 'lovely' she feels wearing the jumper, writing: "This jumper is really different and gorgeous. I took a chance because I wasn't sure if I could carry it off at my age (63) but it makes me feel lovely." A second said: "Absolutely love it wore it for the first time last night, ideal as a coverup on a hot evening probably be too much for a hot day but perfect for my needs."

Alternatives and Fit Considerations

Roman isn't the only fashion forward retailer with a stunning crochet offering for the colder months. New Look has an incredibly similar offering for £30 - though unlike Roman's jumper, its Sunshine Soul Black Crochet Patchwork Pattern Jumper has a bold all-over crochet pattern for more daring fashion fans. If you're a lover of neutrals, you might find yourself more inclined by The White Company's premium Cotton Rib Trim Crochet Sweater, which has been heavily reduced from £120 to £48.

There aren't currently any negative reviews of the jumper on the Roman website, but there are some things to bear in mind. Because it has a crochet knit construction, it likely won't give the same coverage as fine and close knits. So it's best worn over a long-sleeve top or T-shirt in the colder months. At an approximate length of 58cm, it sits closer to a slightly cropped or standard waist-length fit. If you prefer a longer or oversized tunic-style jumper that covers your hips, this fit might feel too short.
