Cute and oversized crochet vest pattern, with an oversize fit and a stitch that makes it feel almost like a knitted sweater. The final product is light and loose fitting, making it the perfect layering piece for spring / autumn and winter.

What this pattern includes:

  • Written instructions supported with step by step pictures and diagrams to easily understand the stitch and construction of the Sweater. There’s a Testers Section with sizing details - to help you choose the best size for your desired fit.

What you need:

  • Yarn: I recommend, medium size (aran / worsted) acrylic / wool-like. It’s best to gauge swatch to make sure the feel of the fabric is right. Yardage table included on the pattern.
  • Crochet Hook: As long as it meets the gauge any crochet hook will be fine.
  • Scissors to cut the yarn.
  • Tapestry needle or a smaller crochet hook to weave in the ends.
  • Stitch markers are recommended.

Sizing:

The Pattern is written for 1 to 5, you can check the testers section (unfortunately I was not able to test size 1, it will be updated in the future, but I don’t have a time frame just yet) to help you decide the best fit for you.


Project Time:
Depending on the size and skill, this could be made on a crochet weekend marathon or enjoyed it through the month by crocheting 1 - 2 hours at a time.
