Barbie Crochet Circle Jacket By Kelly Mullan
Materials:
2.75mm/ C/2 hook
Medium to light weight sock yarn.
Instructions
Begin by chaining 6 stitches. Connect ends
with a slip stitch to form a foundation loop.
Chain one st.
First round: Using single crochet
stitches (sc), work eight stitches around foundation loop. Stitches should go
through the center loop and not through individual stitches.
Second Round: work TWO stitches
into each stitch of first round (16 sts total).
Third Round: (In first st, work 1
sc. In second st, work 2 sc) repeat to end of row.
Fourth Round: (in first and second stitch, work 1 sc. In third
st, work 2 sc) repeat to end of round.
By now you might
have noticed a pattern to the placement of increases. On every round you are
working 1 more stitch before making an increase. (For example, if you were to
do an Increase Round 5 you would single crochet into 3 stitches before
increasing by working 2 single crochets into the next stitch.) You may continue
in this manner until your fabric reaches the desired diameter.
At round Seven, chain 8
stitches and connect chain to main body of work 8 stitches along edge. This
creates a sleeve opening 16 sts around. Sc to opposite side of work and repeat.
You should now have two sleeve openings across from each other. Continue
working flat circle as above and working sc stitches into the 8 loops of the
chain at each sleeve opening.
