​White Festive Jacket

You’ll need:

500 (550)g of natural-white yarn (54% baby alpaca wool, 36% natural wool, 10% nylon; 155m/50g);

Crochet hook 7;

Knitting needles 6.

Size: S (M).

Used Patterns

Main pattern: the quantity of sts is multiple 3 + 1. Work due to the scheme 1. Start with sts before pattern repeats, pattern repeat, finish with sts after pattern repeat. Make 1^st-9^th rows x once, then, repeat 6^th-9^th rows.

Hexagon: make 5 chain sts and circle them in the ring with the help of 1 slip st. Work due to the scheme 2 with circle rows. Start every circle row with 3 chain sts increase instead of the 1^st double crochet and finish with 1 slip st. If needed, turn to the new circle row with the help of slip st. Make 1^st-4^th circle rows x once.

2 x 2 rib (knitting needle).

Stitches control: main pattern: 13 sts x 8 rows = 10 x 10 cm;

Hexagon: 15 cm from top to top, 14 cm from edge to edge.
