Hooded jacket (hoodie) "Comfort" (adults/children, size 2 y.-XXL)

This PDF crochet tutorial consists of illustrated tutorial for crocheting a hooded jacket (hoodie) "Comfort" for adults (size XS to XXL) and children (size 2 y- 13 y.) with hood and relief pattern. This hooded jacket is quite easy to crochet, so the pattern is suitable for crocheters with previous knowledge, but not suitable as a first crochet project.

The jacket is very cozy and can be crocheted without pockets. It is also perfect for sports activities. It can be crocheted for both winter and summer (depending on the wool) and is a unisex raglan jacket (so suitable for guys and gals, for women and men).

Note for the sl. st: This jacket is partly crocheted with the sl. st. Crocheting with the sl. st, crocheted either in the back loop only or in the front loop only, requires a little practice. Before you start crocheting, practice with an old thick wool (wool scraps). After a few exercises, crocheting with the sl. st will work very quickly. Otherwise: crochet very loosely, take the crochet hook 0.5 to 1 size larger than recommended for your wool. How to crochet the sl st is explained in video (link in the pattern).

Note for the wool: Of course, you can also crochet this jacket from the gradient wool or any other wool. Note, however, that the wool you use must have about the same thickness as the one I used. If it is not, please make extra calculations for your wool then. You can do this very quickly by crocheting a pattern with the basic pattern and counting the stitches per 10 cm and based on that, calculate the number of stitches needed. If you have difficulties with this, I will be happy to help you with the calculations. In this case, write me an e-mail.
