EXPLANATIONS FOR THE PATTERN:

-------------------------------------------------------

CHAIN STITCH:
If you work outermost on the hook the chain stitch will often be too tight; 1 chain stitch should be as long as 1 double
crochet/double-treble crochet is wide.

CROCHET INFORMATION:
At the beginning of each row of double-treble crochets work 4 chain stitches; these chain stitches do not replace the first
double-treble crochet.
At the beginning of each row of double crochets work 1 chain stitch; this chain stitch does not replace the first double
crochet.

PATTERN:
See diagrams A.1 to A.9. Find your size in the diagrams (applies to A.3, A.4, A.6, A.8 and A.9).

INCREASE TIP (for armholes):

Increase 2 stitches by working 3 stitches in the outermost stitch towards the armhole.

DECREASE TIP:
Decrease 1 stitch on each side of the piece by working together the first 2 stitches and the last 2 stitches on the row as
follows:
Work 1 double crochet but wait with the last yarn over and pull-through (= 2 loops on the hook), work 1 double crochet in
the next stitch and pull the last yarn over through all 3 loops on the hook (= 1 stitch decreased).

JACKET – SHORT OVERVIEW OF THE PIECE:

The piece is worked top down and back and forth in sections, which are crocheted/sewn together to finish.

BACK PIECE:
Left shoulder:
Work 15-15-17-17-19-21 chain stitches – read CHAIN STITCH, with hook size 5 mm and Air. Turn and work the first row
from the right side as follows: 1 double-treble crochet in each chain stitch – read CROCHET INFORMATION = 15-15-17-17-
19-21 double-treble crochets. Then work a row with 1 double crochet in each double-treble crochet.
Now work pattern (starting on the row with the arrow) from the right side as follows:
A.1 over the first 1-1-3-1-3-5 stitches, A.2 over the next 4 stitches, A.3 over the next 10-10-10-12-12-12 stitches (find your
size in the diagram). When you have worked the row with the arrow, cut the strand and lay the piece to one side.
Right shoulder:
Work 15-15-17-17-19-21 chain stitches – remember CHAIN STITCH, with hook size 5 mm and Air. Turn and work the first
row from the right side as follows : 1 double-treble crochet in each chain stitch – remember CROCHET INFORMATION = 15-
15-17-17-19-21 double-treble crochets. Then work a row with 1 double crochet in each double-treble crochet.
Now work pattern (starting on the row with the arrow) from the right side as follows:
Work A.4 over the first 10-10-10-12-12-12 stitches (find your size in the diagram), A.5 over the next 4 stitches, A.1 over the
last 1-1-3-1-3-5 stitches. When you have worked the row with the arrow, continue with the next row in the diagram (= 1
stitch increased towards the neck), then work 20-20-20-24-24-24 loose chain stitches (= neck) and continue this row over
the left shoulder as follows: A.3 over the first 10-10-10-12-12-12 stitches (= 1 stitch increased towards the neck), A.2 over
the next 4 stitches, A.1 over the last 1-1-3-1-3-5 stitches = 52-52-56-60-64-68 stitches. REMEMBER THE CROCHET
TENSION!
Continue with the next 2 rows in the pattern and over the chain stitches on the neck work 1 double-treble crochet in each
stitch from the right side and 1 double crochet in each stitch from the wrong side.
Now work pattern as before over the first 22-22-24-26-28-30 stitches, A.2 over the next 4 stitches, A.5 over the next 4
stitches (make sure that A.2 and A.5 start on the same row on each side of the back piece), work pattern as before over the
last 22-22-24-26-28-30 stitches. When A.3 and A.4 have been completed in height, work pattern as before over the first 5-5-
7-5-7-9 stitches, A.6 over the next 17-17-17-21-21-21 stitches, A.2 and A.5 as before, A.6 over the next 17-17-17-21-21-21
stitches and work as before over the last 5-5-7-5-7-9 stitches. Continue this pattern back and forth. Repeat the diagrams
from the rows with the arrows.
When the piece measures 17-16-17-18-19-19 cm, increase 2 stitches on each side for the armholes – read INCREASE TIP.
Increase like this every row a total of 2-3-3-3-3-4 times on each side = 60-64-68-72-76-84 stitches. At the end of the next 2
rows work 3-4-5-6-7-7 loose chain stitches for both armholes = 66-72-78-84-90-98 stitches. The new stitches are worked in
A.1.
Continue back and forth until the piece measures 47-49-51-53-55-57 cm from the shoulder down – adjust so you finish

Now work an edge as follows: Work 1 row with 1 double crochet in each stitch and increase 1 stitch on the row by working
2 double crochets in one stitch = 67-73-79-85-91-99 stitches. Work from the row with the arrow in A.7 until there is 1 stitch
left and work the first stitch in A.7. Repeat the last 2 rows in the diagram until the edge measures 6 cm – adjust so you

arrow), cut the strand. Work 9-9-9-11-11-11 loose chain stitches (= neck), work row 4 in A.8 and A.2 from the wrong side as
before and then A.1 to the end of the row = 27-27-29-31-33-35 stitches.

or the next to last row in the diagram.
Work 1 row with 1 double crochet in each stitch and increase 1-0-1-0-1-1 stitch on the row by working 2 double crochets in
one stitch = 35-37-41-43-47-51 stitches. Work from the row with the arrow in A.7 until there is 1 stitch left and work the first

Turn and work back and forth as before; over the new stitches work 1 double treble crochet in each chain stitch. Work 1
