​Crochet Summer Jacket

You’ll need:

300 (350) 400g of green Cadiz Unito yarn (51% cotton, 33% polyacryl, 16% viscose; 90m/50g)

Crochet hook 6;

Decorative fastener.

Size: S (M) L/XL.

Note: make back and left front together. Join right front to back.

Used Patterns

Main pattern: 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 and 3^rd rows.

Relief pattern: work due to the scheme 2, make 2 groups of 3 double crochets together, divided with 3 chain sts in 1 selvage st, then, divide the sts due to the instructions. 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 and 3^rd rows.

Stitches control: main pattern: 9 double crochets x 6,5 rows = 10 x 10 cm;

Relief pattern: 4,5 rows = 10 cm.

Instructions

Back and Left Front

Make 23 (25) 27 chains sts + 3 chain sts increase and work with the main pattern = 24 (26) 28 double crochets. In 4,5 cm = 3 rows from the set-up row, make 20 (22) 24 chain sts from right side for right arm-hole and work with the main pattern on all the sts = 44 (48) 52 double crochets. In 24,5 cm = 16 rows (27,5 cm = 18 rows) 30,5 cm = 20 rows from the set-up row, the center of back is reached. In 44,5 cm = 29 rows (50,5 cm = 33 rows) 56,5 cm = 37 rows from the set-up row, leave 20 (22) 24 double crochets from right side for left arm-hole = 24 (26) 28 double crochets. In 49 cm = 32 rows (55 cm = 36 rows) 61 cm = 40 rows from the set-up row, left side line is reached. After that, make left front, in 4,5 cm = 3 rows from left side line, make arm-hole in the same way, as the first arm-hole on back = 44 (48) 52 double crochets. In 15,5 cm = 10 rows (18,5 cm = 12 rows) 21,5 cm = 14 rows from left side line, decrease 9 (11) 13 double crochets from right side for neck-hole and 1 x 6 sts, 6 x 4 sts in every row. In 27,5 cm = 18 rows (30,5 cm = 20 rows) 33,5 cm = 22 rows from left side line, finish your work.

Right Front

Work with main pattern along set-up row of back, make 24 (26) 28 double crochets in the 1^st row. Make right front in symmetry to the left front.

Sleeves

Make shoulder seams; work with circle rows of main pattern along each arm-hole, make 4 pattern repeats along horizontal edges, make 10 (11) 12 pattern repeats along vertical edges. In 3 cm = 2 rows from the beginning of sleeve, fasten 4 pattern repeats of horizontal edge with single crochets, continue work with the main pattern along vertical edges. In 4,5 cm = 3 rows from the beginning of sleeve, leave patterns from horizontal edges for chamfers + 1 pattern repeat from vertical edges. Then, work with on the rest 18 (20) 22 pattern repeats with straight and reversed rows in the following way: 1 row of main pattern, 1 chain st increase, fasten the first 2 pattern repeats with single crochets, work with the main pattern on the next 14 (16) 18 pattern repeats, fasten the last 2 pattern repeats with single crochets, 1 chain st increase, for last row, make slip sts above single crochets of the previous row, then, work upon the next 14 (16) 18 pattern repeats in the following way: * 1 single crochet between 2 double crochets of the next pattern repeat, 3 double crochets together + 3 chain sts + 3 double crochets together between double crochets of the next pattern repeat*; repeat from * to *, 1 single crochet in the next 2^nd single crochets of the previous row. In 9 cm = 6 rows from the beginning of sleeve, finish your work.



Assembly

Make 1 row of the main pattern along the lower edge in the following way: join yarn to the corner of right front, 3 chain sts, skip 1 (0) 0 edging double crochet, double crochets, * 1 pattern repeat, skip 2 edging double crochets*; repeat from * to *, 1 pattern repeat, skip 1 (0) 0 edging double crochet, 1 final double crochet in the corner of left front = 22 (26) 28 pattern repeats + initial and final double crochets. Afterthat, workwithreliefpattern. In 11 cm = 5 rows from the beginning of placket, finish your work. Fasten short edges of placket, front and neck-hole with 1 row of “shrimp stitch”.
