Crochet Coats
by Jill Hanratty
Category: Crafts & Hobbies

Each of the four coat designs featured in this book is designed to flatter the body with special attention given to gentle shaping, fluidity, and drape. "Swinging Single" is a classic A-line that is crocheted from the top down using simple half-double and slip stitches to create texture, "Textured Topper" is crocheted side-to-side with attached sleeves and slash pockets, "Chill Chaser" uses a variety of extended single crochet stitches and front-and-back loop stitches, and "Cable Car" is crocheted from the bottom up using easy treble crochet cables adorning an extended single crochet background. Every project is worked in medium worsted-weight yarn, and directions are given for a full range of sizes, including plus sizes to 3X.
