Pattern Note(s)

- The colorwork at the lower part of the coat is worked in rows WITHOUT TURNING. You cut the yarn after each row, and work from right to left; it is worked on the right side with a final length of 18” for all sizes.
- To reduce your sewing, crochet over each end on both sides for the colorwork.
Construction Notes
- This pattern is worked top down from yoke down with no sewing needed.
- Body is worked in rows and sleeves are worked in rounds.
Adjustments/fittings:
- Bust: Best place to adjust bust is when joining the yoke to create sleeves. You can continue till you have a good fit
- Sleeves:
Too tight? work more rows of the yoke.
Too lose? go back one or two rows
Too short/long – increase/reduce the number of rows just before the color changes.
- Length of coat: increase or decrease your number of repeats for the body of the coat or increase or decrease the repats for the hips/skirt.

Section 3 – Skirt/Hip of this crochet coat pattern
Notes
- Count 8 sts on both sides, place stitch markers and move with each row.
- The first and last 8 stitches are worked in both loops.
- Stitches in between the 8 stitches are worked in BLO
if sc and FLO if dc, which is worked 2 rows below. - When you work the dc in the FLO of the st 2 rows below, you
miss the corresponding stitch on the row you are working on. - Cut yarn after each row, leaving about 6.5 cm/2.5” tail,
crochet over the tail in next row. - You can stop the colorwork at any point once you are happy
with the length. - See the graph on the last page to help with the color work.
- Yu can use a single color, prototype made using 4 different
colors (B, C, D, E). - Stitch counts remains the same throughout!
- Remember, no turning!
You cut yarn after each row and reattach on the other
side.
