​Pink and Silver Jacket

You’ll need:

100 (160) 150g of pink, silver and dark-silver yarn Lace Lux (67% viscose, 33% wool; 310m/50g) (each color);

Crochet hook 3,5;

6 buttons.

Size: S (M) L.

Used Patterns

Purl pattern: the quantity of sts is multiple 16. Work due to the scheme 1. Start with sts before pattern repeat, pattern repeat, finish with sts after pattern repeat. Make 1^st-3^rd rows x once, then, repeat 2^nd-3^rd rows, paying attention to the colors order.

Colors order: * 1 dark-silver row, 1 pink row, 1 silver row*.

Pattern for placket: the quantity of sts is odd. Make in the same way, as purl pattern, but due to the scheme 2 on the edges of work. Make 1^st and 2^nd rows one more time, then, repeat the 1^st row again after the set-up row of single crochets = 4 rows.

Stitches control: 28 sts x 12,5 rows = 10 x 10 cm.
