​Crochet Yellow Vest for Baby

You’ll need:

100 (150) 200g of yellow Lerici Fein yarn (55% cotton, 45% polyacryl; 140m/50g);

Crochet hooks 4 and 4,5;

Scissors;

Stitch markers.

Size: 92/98 (104/110) 116/122.

Used Patterns

Relief pattern: pattern repeat is 8 sts. Work due to the scheme. Start with sts before pattern repeat, pattern repeat, finish with sts after pattern repeat. Make 1^st-4^th rows x once, then, repeat 3^rd-4^th rows.

Stitches control: 17,5 sts x 8 rows = 10 x 10 cm.

Instructions

Back

Make 51 (59) 67 chain sts + 1 chain st increase instead of the 1^st single crochet, make 1 row of single crochets, then, work with relief pattern. In 17 (20) 23 cm from the set-up toe, leave 3 sts from both sides for arm-holes and bind off 1 x 2 sts and 2 x 1 st in every row. Finish your work in 30 (35) 40 cm from the set-up row.

Front

Make in the same way, as back, but with V-shape neck-hole. For this, in 20 (23) 26 cm from the set-up row, bind off the central st and finish both sides separately, bind off 6 x 2 sts in every row from inwards and 1 (3) 5 x 1 st. Finish your work at the height of back.

Assembly

Make shoulder and side seams. Fasten neck-hole and arm-holes with 1 circle row of single crochets and “shrimp stitch”.
