In this written pattern & tutorial, I will teach you how to make a Crochet Sweater Coat. If you can crochet a granny square, then you’ll be able to make this crochet jacket.
The stitches that we will be using in the pattern are the chain stitch and double crochet. This pattern is made in two parts. Luckily, this pattern also has minimal sewing.
The materials I picked for this project are Caron One Pound for the main color, due to its thicker and stiffer yarn texture. It gives the coat a heavy study feel. For the boarder, I picked Lion Brand Homespun yarn. I loved the way the yarn gave the crochet jacket a fur collar look
