Easy Crochet Pattern You’ll Love
Here’s an easy crochet pattern for a simple and versatile vest:
Materials:
- Worsted weight yarn in your desired color
- Crochet hook suitable for your yarn (usually around size H/8 or 5.0mm)
- Scissors
- Yarn needle
Pattern:
Back Panel:
- Chain the number of stitches needed for the width of your back, keeping in mind that the vest will stretch slightly. (For example, chain 60 for a small size, 70 for medium, and 80 for large.)
- Double crochet in the third chain from the hook and in each chain across. Turn.
- Chain 2 (counts as the first double crochet), double crochet in each stitch across. Turn.
- Repeat Step 3 until your back panel reaches the desired length from the base of your neck to your waist.
Front Panels (make two):
- Chain the number of stitches needed for the width of one front panel. (For example, for a small size, chain 30; for medium, chain 35; for large, chain 40.)
- Double crochet in the third chain from the hook and in each chain across. Turn.
- Chain 2 (counts as the first double crochet), double crochet in each stitch across. Turn.
- Repeat Step 3 until your front panel measures approximately half the width of the back panel and is the same length as the back panel.
Assembly:
- Lay the back panel flat. Attach one front panel to each side of the back panel by single crocheting along the side edges. Start at the bottom and work your way up, leaving an armhole space at the top.
- Once both front panels are attached, fold the vest in half with right sides together.
- Single crochet along the shoulder seams to join the front and back panels together.
- Turn the vest right side out.
Optional:
- Add edging along the bottom, neckline, and armholes if desired, using single crochet, slip stitch, or any other decorative stitch.
That’s it! This simple vest pattern is customizable based on your size preferences and can be adjusted by changing the stitch count or length. It’s perfect for layering over a t-shirt or dress for a stylish and cozy look. Enjoy crocheting your new vest!
