Final update in crochet jacket


 This is the final look of the crochet jacket prepared for my daughter.
As the jacket is crocheted top down,I sowed the front and back portion from armhole leaving the space for pocket to be  crocheted.ie about 5.5 inches.

For the pocket,the stitches were picked around the opening udon slip stitches and the pocket was crocheted in the round using double crochet.


After completing this border around the bottom was crocheted usingfront pst and back post double crochet of three rows then border along front and neck was crocheted in the same way.and two button loops were added in the front.and two wooden buttons were added to complete the jacket.

Development in crochet jacket in lemonpeel stitch


 My daughter wanted a jacket like the onemade by viv crochet in lemon peel stitch but a little longer.

I started the two front and back portion from top separately and joined them after leaving some space for pockets and sleeves.


The original jacket is short and knit straight but here I have started increasing stitch es after joining.and finish the jacket after reaching the required length.
