INGA'S JACKET is a beautiful and classic crocheted jacket. The jacket is slightly oversize and with 3/4 sleeves, and can be worked with or without pockets.
The jacket is crocheted top-down in a simple pattern consisting of
alternately 1dc/tr below the sc/dc of the previous row and a sc/dc on the row. The structure is gained by displacing the pattern on every second row.
Because the jacket is crocheted top-down, you can try it along the way and maybe adjust the measurements. However, the stated yarn requirement is only correct if the stated measurements are met.
INGA'S JACKET is crocheted in
SNEFNUG NATUR. A soft, airy and full-bodied yarn, made of uncoloured alpaca fibers, merino wool and organic cotton. The jacket can also be crocheted in
SNEFNUG, that comes in many beautiful colours.
The pattern includes both US and UK crochet terms.
