Would you like to crochet a jacket for your child that looks like knitted? Then this crochet tutorial is just for you. A simple children's jacket with an overlap at the front that is very quick and easy to make. This jacket is even suitable for beginners with previous knowledge! The cardigan are crocheted as one piece and therefore have only two seams.
Attention. The jacket is crocheted with the sl st. Crocheting with the sl st, inserted either in the back loops only or in the front loops only of the previous row, requires a little practice. Before you start crocheting, practice crocheting with an old thick wool (wool scraps). After a few practices, crochet with sl st will work out very quickly. Otherwise, crochet very loosely, take the crochet hook 0.5 to 1 size larger than recommended for your wool.
Advantages of a jacket with overlap: 1. easy to put on; 2. has only two seams; 3. quick and easy to crochet; 4. cuddly soft and pleasant for the skin.

Hello dear visitor of my shop. I am happy to present here my shop for crochet fans. You will find crochet patterns for every taste.
The idea to open online shops was preceded by important events in my life.
It all started many years ago. I was just eight years old at the time when my grandmother initiated me into the art of dc, ch and sc. I will never forget how proud I was when I put my first own doily on the table. Time went fast, I grew up and with all the worries of everyday life I forgot about needlework. It wasn't until I got older and had children that I remembered everything my grandma taught me. I started crocheting for my children and found it very exciting again. Over time, I had so many ideas for crocheting children's things that they were too much even for my two children. So I came up with the idea of opening an online shop with crochet patterns.
