I’ve gotta tell you, I’m making another summer vest for a senior and I keep looking for and thinking of different patterns but end up coming back to yours time and time again. It’s pretty, simple and well taught. Thanks again, you rock💕🙏💕
Clear voice. Experience and expert teaching. I am “trying” to do the vest now and it is looking good!!! Thank You!!
Thank you! I made it in one day! Very impressed. I used Kartopu cotton. 2 x 100g balls . Appreciate you sharing your skills. 💞
thank you !
Wow! One day? Wonderful!! I want to make one of these.
Cotton yarn is expensive in UK so good to know you only need 2 100g balls. Thanks.
THIS WAS SUCH AN AMAZING VIDEO!!!!! Thank you so much for posting this, it was SUPER clear and PERFECT for the project I was looking to make as a brand new beginner!
Your speech is clear and direct. You teach VERY well, making it easy. Thank You.
Thank you so much ❤️
Thank you for such an easy, enjoyable pattern! I just finished it and it's perfect. I will be making a few more in different colors for myself. I will be looking at your other posts too. Thank you for sharing your fantastic talent! 💝
This video is awesome! Thank you so much for this! The instructions were thorough, the pattern was simple, and the finished result was perfect! I can't believe a pattern this simple has turned out to be one of my favorite pieces I've made for myself. I may make more in various colors. I might even make some as Christmas gifts. Thank you so much, you rock!
Thank you so much, Toni. You put a smile on my face 🙂
This is exactly the type of vest I was looking for! I will probably shorten it up just a bit, but simple and beautiful! Thanks so much for this great tutorial! ❤

Pamela Collins you're welcome I'm so glad you like it
I was patiently waiting for this tutorial and I’m glad to see it in some yarn I have but don’t know what to do with... love it!! and I can’t wait to make it
jasmine livingston how you doing Jasmine? I was a little slow to release this video. I had my tooth pulled so I couldn't do the voice-overs LOL
Thank you so much for this video. I just made one for my bff. I hope she likes it as much as I liked making it.
I hope she loves it too. Handmade vis the best gift
thank you! This is just what I was looking for so I took notes along the way so I can start this in my favourite purple wool. Thank you for the simple to follow tutorial and I hope to have this done so I can wear it to my crochet group in a couple of weeks!
That is so cool that you have a crochet group. I wish they had something like that where i live.
Just finished my vest fits perfect used 100% cotton from Hobby Lobby in Antique Cream. I love it first piece of clothing I made other than a poncho. It was very easy to follow. Thanks for sharing 👍
Hey, thank you for this tutorial. It's easy to follow.....I turned my vest into a beach cover-up. It's lovely, thanks to you.
A simple, quick, easy to knit pattern!) Super for a hot weather!)... Thank You!)
This is the first time in many attempts that I can say I’m proud to have a finished project. Thank you!
You're very welcome!
Thankyou ., Your tutorial helped a lot. I made a colour ful vest for my plus size.
Wow! Thanks so much! I have been wanting to make this kind of mesh vest for years!! Thanks for sharing!! You have certainly demystified this pattern for me!! Love, love, love!
I'm so glad I could help 🥰♥️
@@LittlejohnsYarn Jacking a thread so I can make sure I get an answer. I love this vest! Did you just use a short chain for the tie for it, then lace it through your single crochet row, or did you attach two smaller chains on either side? (Or, either way being stronger by attaching to the loops inside of the single crochet row?)
Thank you for this pattern. I just today finished making my own vest!
I love this!! ❤💜❤💜 You're amazing girl!
Thank you So much 😘
Your patterns are the bomb
Glad I found you
You rock !!!!

YOU MAKE IT LOOK SO EASY
Thank you for the easy to follow tutorial
You're welcome 🙂
I found it easy to follow along with the video. I just added sleeves to mine
This is the first video I have seen by you. I LOVE IT !!!! I will be making these vests for my 4 daughters and my 4 grand daughters. They will vary from size medium girls to 4X women's. Thank you so much for sharing this video and for it to be so simple, beautiful, and so very well explained.
Thank you so much Kami. I hope come back to try more of my future patterns❤️
That's so pretty. Im totally new to crocheting and so Im definitely gonna try this when I improve
You got this 💪 as long as you know the four basic stitches, you're no longer a newbie 😉 it's all about how you put those stitches.
I did this as my first crochet piece ever and it turned out awesome! Only took two afternoons watching sesame street with the munchkin.
I can’t wait to make this great job alysha
thank you!
I actually think I can do this! Thank you
You do an amazing job teaching--but I'm such a beginner, I really need a written pattern, and for you to show me your piece as we go along; mine didn't turn out like yours, but it's still very cute! I had a really hard time with the arm holes, so I just poked them through wherever it seemed right... thanks for taking the time to do this. 😊
I'm so sorry, thank you for the feedback. This helps improve my tutorials. I've change my pattern format since last august. Now all video pattern come with a free written pattern & up close pictures of each section. Because of wonderful people like yourself, I'm creating better videos 💕
Gorgeous!
thank you so much
Very good. I like your speed and repeat.
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
I love this!
Thank you so much!!!
Just made this. Loved it! Although I've never done so many chain stitches...OmG. After the first couple of rows I did my single crochets into the top stitch of the chain 5, instead of the space. It looked better. I goofed up on the first row or two, so that I ended up decreasing when I didn't mean to. But this pattern is very forgiving, so it still looks great. Also I did a few extra edging rows on the bottom. Again, love this!
Wow!
Yep, doing the same with sc into the middle chain of the 5ch. Keeps it shape much better. By the way, this pattern is for sale on Etsy for just $1.78 or so. Gives you the written pattern. It’s called ‘Vintage 70’s Retro Hippie Vest- Crochet Pattern’
Hola mil gracias feliz estoy de que me allas entendido lo que yo quería saber gracias por responder un habrazo gigante y un besote
I just finally made mine today this has helped me out sooo much thank you Sooo much!!! Keep up the great work 👍
Thank you so much
@@LittlejohnsYarn your welcome 😊if you want you can subscribe too my channel
Very pretty
Will give this a go I think. Good tutorial. I'm currently working on a treble crochet vest similar layout to this one. New subscriber.
Love it... sharing in Facebook group. Crochet with Lady Duchess. I wanted something like this.. ❤ Love sharing all my Queens stuff..
That is awesome. I'm going to have to come over and check you out🙂 Thank you Lady Duchess
Littlejohn's Yarn Your very welcome... Love you.. keep them coming.. Health & Wellness. ..
Great job, simple and easy. I would use a cotton blend yarn and use it as a beach cover up or worn over clothes as in the video. I don't like acrylic yarn for clothes.
Thank you! so glad you like the pattern. That Caron One pound was horrible!!!! I had to use what was available in my stash. Your right about cotton. Some acrylic can fuzz up and pile
Super cute ! & great video!
Thank you so much Danielle :-)
You stated to allow a long ending finishing off the work. Why?
Love it
Thank you
Thanks for sharing
I love this. Thank you for sharing. I'm gonna add this to my project list.
You can always soften stiff scratchy yarn by washing it in a lingerie bag with fabric softener before use. Makes a big difference.
That is a super great tip! I am definitely going to try that. thank you soooo much
I made a big mess out of my yarn doing this!
@@joysmith1213 I think 🤔 she means once the garment is made. Unless you have a bag that your skein fits so it won’t come loose and tangle.
@@charlottehyatt9601 Maybe so, cause it sure didn't work just putting the skein in a bag, haha!
What an awesome video!! I would love to make this with much smaller holes (covering up all the body flaws!!). Could you help me figure out how to adjust this pattern to do that? Thanks, and enjoy today!
So excited to try this tutorial!!! I wonder if there's a way to have an almost diamond-fringed base instead of a flat edge. Something I might try out if I feel brave XD
I did ur croche .It came out well
❤️❤️❤️
I loved this pattern. It reminded me of a crochet vest my aunt made for me back in the 60s! The whole time I was crocheting I kept thinking of Aretha Franklin singing "chain chain chain"........ lol. Am I aging myself???
Hello and thank you so much for this video it was really easy to follow and I love it.. I made for my granddaughter graduation from college. I just have a question for you how do I make the strings in the front to make the bow? I did not see that on your video on how to make it if you could please share that with me I would greatly appreciate it thank you and I do follow you and I will be making more of your things thank you again 🥰 Medoria
Love this! Looking for your pattern so I can make other sizes. Could you post a link to it?
Hi, thank you so much ,you explain very well. do you have a written pattern? Many thanks awesome!!!
Did you ever do a video of the top you have on at the start of the video? Love it.❤️🤗🙏
Beautiful !!! Am just wondering if I can figure out how to use some wool fingering / sock yarn I have. This pattern may be good for any kind of yarn - just need to do a bit of tweaking with the numbers. TY for sharing it with us.
Pretty! What about Shawl in a ball yarn? Thanks for sharing
Silvia Lanus I have never used that yarn before. But I've seen it and it's beautiful. If it works for Shaw's I think it'll work great for this vest. I think it's a great idea
Very nice. Alysha How long did it take you to make this? I love it
Love this! So if I use a lighter weight yarn like a dk I should go up a required hook size on the package by 1? So a 3.5mm requirement on package I would use 4.5? And then just chain in multiples of 4? Just want to make sure, I love this it is a very versatile pattern!
I should have been more specific. I'm going to pin a comment for everyone. thank you for pointing that out. what I meant to say a different brand of worsted weight yarn. Caron One Pound is a stiffest thickest strand of worsted weight yarn on the market. Something like "I love this yarn" or "RedHeart Soft"
Hi if I'm making this vest in a bigger size how do I adjust the size for the front & back & how many to reduce?? Any help please? Thank you.
Hello, you think me using red heart parrot stripe yarn would be ok to use? I think it would be so pretty just don't know if it's too thick of a yarn it say medium worsted.
Oh i LOVE this & cant wait to make! Im thinking you know how we all have a ton scrappy yarn, i think that would be a pretty use... What do you think???
I think it would be a great idea. It would give it that fun boho look😍
Hi 👋 love your videos. ? I’m doing a 2x size how do I do measure for larger arm hole. Please and thank you 🙏
Hi there. Not sure if you're still responding to this video. I have two questions, but first, I'd like to say, I love your videos. I've done three of your patterns thus far.
Ok, now my questions: You mentioned to add 4 additional chain blocks for each inch the person is bigger (I'm a size 16). However you didn't mention if that mains I have to reduce more rows (see time 7:48 in your video.) Also, you didn't mentioned how to do the closing chain in the front of the vest to hold it together. Thanks in advance for your comment.
Working on this. If you’d like to have the written pattern, it’s available on Etsy, ‘Vintage 70’s Retro Hippie Vest- Crochet Pattern’.It gives you changes for Small, Medium and Large.
I adore how easy to follow this tutorial is, but is there a written pattern as well? I'm learning to follow patterns and I'd love to reference one as I crochet along with you.
I"m so sorry. This is one of my earlier patterns. I need to go back & write patterns for my older videos.
@@LittlejohnsYarn that's no problem! I think I can just follow you for now, and we'll see how it goes! Thank you for the great instructions!
Hello
I like the pattern . Where can I look for written pattern please .
I luv this easy breezy stitch and i used it but i had to find another video to Learn to Construct the Vest....i just couldn't grasp it by seeing only the one or two stitches and not a full visual
Hey Gail, I'm glad you like the stitch. Sorry for the bad angle. I have been studying other videos recently. I'm looking for ways to improve my tutorial "structure" for easier following. Thank u for your suggestion. If you have any others please let me know. I want to make my patterns the EASIEST to follow on UA-cam😉
Littlejohn's Yarn i think you did an awesome job how many chains do you think I need to do a size 16?
@@Preteahumblegirl make the chain about 2 inches longer than your hips or chest... which ever one is bigger
I am just starting the arm holes and I understand the first row, but what happens when you start the second row? Do you count that last hole or do you do at the other end you sc three, and you don’t count it in? This is my first time crocheting an item.
I love this but didn’t realise it was made in one piece so mine is completely wrong. Oh well, frogging it is.
Could you do one with sleeves like this please
That would be a cool look😍
Littlejohn's Yarn yesss I wanna make a shaggy vest but I want sleeves... an where do I measure to know how many chains I’ll need Incase it’s a child do I measure across the back or how tall the person is ... help me please
Littlejohn's Yarn like where did you measure to get your number of chains cause I know mines going to be bigger then yours
So the foundation chain is the width that it will fit around your body?
Yes it the width of the body
Can you tell us what size you usually wear?
I love this vest, how many chains for a 1x body?
I'm sorry I don't know the pattern off by heart. But it is created using multiples of 4. Each chain 4 will add an inch to the vest. Wrap the starting chain around the widest part of you to get a good estimate of size.
Ok, thank you. Did you only use 1 ball of yarn?
Hello I see your video you make the arms you don't say is it on the frist side or back side which side I must crochet the arms
Can a 6 ml hook do or a 12 USA kook?
Hello !!! Little John I am in the process of making this vest, where can I sent you a picture when finished.............if you like
What type of yarn we should buy
Are you crocheting down the length or is it on the width side.
Hi I was wondering how could I do this same pattern but with sleeves. What would I do for the sleeves
You can create a smaller arm opening then just crochet around the arm opening to create the sleeves
Littlejohn's Yarn I don’t know how to do that
How much yarn did you eventually use?
Thanks!
CyThCy Osborne about 450 yards of yarn
I would like to make this vest but hip length. Is this possible?
Did you use the whole pound of yarn for this?
How many wool for extra large and how many chains
How did you make and added the tie?
I just attach the yarn (buy tying a knot) and chain about 50 or so stitches
Is the initial chain (124) the width of the back panel of this garment? Mine looks waaaaay too wide to be a cardigan, and I'm using a size 6mm hook.
I'm having this exact problem
How much yarn is need for the total project? Thanks!
I want to make this for a size large, how many stitches do I need?
How would i go about making for 2 years can u help please
Ok... So I'm a little confused as far as far as my chain foundation count... If you're doing 122 chains for a size 12... What would be the count on the foundation chain for a size 16?? And if I want a larger size... Does that mean it would change the whole tutorial on how to do it.... ?? Augh .. I really want to do this ... I have the perfect yarn... Weight... Size... Feel... It's just perfect for this sweater... I just can't get the count right...
