I have just completed my jacket in beautiful autumn colours. the tutorial was easy to follow and it looks fantastic. my first piece of clothing. I am a novice, thank you so much.
Thank you for sharing your video. Your instruction is perfectly clear step by step instruction is also very clear, excellent video recorded. I appreciate your work.
Thank you so much for sharing this video, I've been wanting to learn how to do one of these jackets for the longest. I really appreciate you taking the time show how to do this. I will post a pic of it when I'm done.
Enjoyed your tutorial. I am working on my own pattern and became confused on how to do the arm hole openings. I was using my dress form to gauge the placement of the markers but i ran into some issues. I had not considered using a shirt as a guide. Such a simple solution. Thank you. BTW there are not many tutorials on crocheting a circle vest or jacket. So your video is greatly appreciated!! The other tutorials start with a circle then convert it into a square. To me that is not a circle vest. Anyway, thank you again!!
Woolpedia thumbs up for the great tutorial !! also liked the background scenery at start of your video ... looks like it could be in Germany or Switzerland ??? thank you
i am currently attempting to make this with worsted weight AND baby yarn. (I've double stranded he baby yarn to get the same thickness as the worsted weight), and it's coming together very nicely so far! I'm only on round 17, but hope to have this finished soon! thank you so very much for the detailed video! great tutorial!
Thank you so much for posting your design. It’s the first time I see something started in the round and then it turned into a jacket! I think it’s unique! I’ll try to crochet one someday I don’t know if you have a website. I will check. Thank you once again. L.
I love the way your jacket turned out, but I was wondering if I could do a more simpler version, such as only doing double crochet for the whole thing and making a simple circle without the lace look. Would that work? Or would I need to do more different stitches, such as alternating between rows of different stitches?
thank you for the great pattern. good instructions too. I think in round 13 , it shoukd be skip 2 stitches not 3. works better. thanks again for sharing
thank you so much for this. I can now make any size I want. I have looked at so many designs and they all add extra chain for the armhole and it hasn't made sense to me. Thank you again.
Hey. Thank you for your video. Could not answer my question? Why do I get the product bends and begins to fit in as a cap? Thanks in advance for your reply. Julia
Hi I absolutely love this pattern. I'm not sure what I am doing wrong but around row 10 or 11 my work is bending a lot and I was wondering how to fix that.
Awesome ... I love it ;-) you have a wonderful way doing project ! I thank you and my daughter as well. She 13 and have done one as well. Beautiful color for a teen to do. Thank you agin Jackie and Elana
Hi! I want to make this very badly. Looks wonderful and I've never done anything like it. I would like to know about how many yards should I buy. I'm in the USA so I wont be able to find the same yarn as you are using.
Julia...Thank you for all your help...I wanted to ask what the measurement of your sweater was across ...Mine is larger than your's but that could be for a number of reasons yarn or tension so on...I want to make one for my daughter who is about the same size as you so if i know your measurement is across to where you added your sleeves and then you're finally measurement across the piece i can make one for my daughter thank you for all your help Julia
another question- do u have any ideas how I would add a hood to this jacket? I've been trying to figure it out before I've gone too far but I'm having some trouble. thank you!
ty. by row ten, I tired of the repetitive pattern. lol. so I spiced things up a bit and free styled for a few rows. then went back to the look of the pattern. I'm so close to begin the opening for my arms. I'm on row 24. I think I will have to do more than 29 rows, before I begin the sleeve opening, due to being larger. but tysvm for the guidance.
+Kristi Nodine could you maybe just tell me what row 10 means then. Is it crochet 3 in same stitch and then i don't know. If you could tell me that would be helpful. If you know. Thanks.
Thank you for the video , I learnt a lot , but I leave in cold weather all year so i made with simple double and single crochetting lines in circle to prevent big holes of designs but I want to close the front with buttons, can you show me how do I do that ?
sd7444 Hi, you should crochet a button hole and sew the button on the opposite side of the hole. Make sure to choose a button which is big enough. Greets, Julia
Hi ruby I love this pattern I am having difficulty with it curling I see where you wrote about this problem, do I need to tear out my work to where the curling started or can I correct it at the row I'm on?
I have a couple of questions 1 how many skeins of yarn are needed, 2 what size will this fit? My daughter is a large where can I find the written pattern so I know how to adjust stitches? Thank you.
thanks for reply, that's the problem lady doesn't want it longer! if I make the starting circle bigger will that make a difference, instead of starting with five and joining, maybe starting with ten and increase on the amount of stitches that go in circle?
Hello, I have spent many hours making this jacket and to most part it looks wonderful, however it doesn't seem to met in the front, do you have any suggestions as to how I can fix this without unraveling what I have already done.
first I love this jacket very much ... second I have a problem and i don't understand .. how can I make it bigger .. I just countinued with your instructions and i'm now on row 32 ,, how can i fix it ? ..
Hi Whoolpedia ! Thank you very much for your tutorials, it is well explained and your jacket is beautiful! I tried to do it but it has a curved shape in the back ... Do you know why it does this? It's a wool knits with needles 5-6 and I used a hook No. 5 .. Do you think I used too small a hook? Or too big?
+Woolpedia fbcdn-photos-h-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-xpf1/v/t34.0-0/p206x206/11999850_10205886353616863_182442662_n.jpg?oh=d9e28aeaedb4a7495cb8e515e6ce5333&oe=55FA2676&__gda__=1442476105_c26cefcf5ea9480b5519a3b363113c12 My work is too straight... it doesn't take the shape of my back... They call me Ninja Turtle lol
Hi yes i did i started the sleeves on row 24 and the are still not staying on right. I am going to try one more time lol now i have two lol i might just sell them at a yard sale or something hahaha
really loving this and would like to buy a written copy But from amazon i don't have a kindle do you have an etsy or ravelry account i could purchase from?...Thank you
I tried to follow your instruction to change into 3dc + 2dc , mine turn out like a bowl. It is not flat as I did using 3dc+4dc in the chains. So, is it possible to continue my work using the previous pattern?
I wish I could upload a picture here of the one I did, I am working on one for myself, but to practice I did one for my Chihuahua and it is very cute. Instead of arm holes I did a neck hole.
Thanks a lot for the pattern it's really lovely but I have the same problem with some of the people who commented below after the 13 circle it's became wavy. How can I fix it?
can you tell me what type of yarn you are using that would be about the same as US yarn. if you can tell me if its 4 ply, 3 ply, or 2 ply that will also help and is it the same type of yarn weight that you would use for baby clothing? I made it using Caron so soft yarn, but I think my jacket is a lot bigger then yours. I am also having issue with the shoulder falling off ... can you tell me about how many stitches you did from one end to the other before you do the arm holes. Also if you can post your email I can send you a photo of my project..
Heyyy please answer. My wool is thicker and and can i use an 8 mm hook for this pattern please can I because i want a looser jacket and can i attach a hood in it.

WOW, at 27.13 you do a stitch I have never seen before, I will definitely be using that when doing granny squares!

+Peta Graham You're very welcome!
Hi Donna,

Hi Keayla, if you want to make it bigger, just crochet more rounds using the same pattern.

Can you do a video how to crochet a simple long sleeves V-neck cardigan? :)
Hi Tamara, I will put it on the wishlist.
I love this jacket but would like to have a looser sleeve. Do I just increase the size of the sleeve opening or eliminate some of the decreases?
Thank you for the english version of this tutorial ..will make this jacket

Thank you Beena
Hi tiffiny, have a look at the description box. You will find links to Facebook communities. Or share it on Google+.
Hi Ruby, yes this would work.
Could you tell me how many rows would be suggested for a 2/3 year old? Thank you so much for this pattern!
ty. by row ten, I tired of the repetitive pattern. lol. so I spiced things up a bit and free styled for a few rows. then went back to the look of the pattern. I'm so close to begin the opening for my arms. I'm on row 24. I think I will have to do more than 29 rows, before I begin the sleeve opening, due to being larger.
but tysvm for the guidance.

Could you please tell me what you did for row 10 and explain what instructions say to do. Cause im stuck and not sure when will get a reply. Thanks.
+Gg Forcedme . I don't have it with me now. all I know is I changed the designs, throughout the enlargement process. sorry :/
+Kristi Nodine could you maybe just tell me what row 10 means then. Is it crochet 3 in same stitch and then i don't know. If you could tell me that would be helpful. If you know. Thanks.

This looks so nicw! Do you have a written pattern for it?
I have a couple of questions 1 how many skeins of yarn are needed, 2 what size will this fit? My daughter is a large where can I find the written pattern so I know how to adjust stitches? Thank you.
Did you ever do this sweater? I'm curious to know how many skeins and how your sweater turned out.
Did you ever get ur answers? I'm wondering the same thing
this is awesome! thank you!
thanks for reply, that's the problem lady doesn't want it longer! if I make the starting circle bigger will that make a difference, instead of starting with five and joining, maybe starting with ten and increase on the amount of stitches that go in circle?
You don't have to change the pattern, just the number of rounds at all.
Que cantidad de hilo lleva este proyecto? Gracias
oooooh soo pretty ... i will try make this jacket .. I Love It Dear thank you for this video
You're welcome Laila!
Woolpedia my pleasure dear :)
Hello Katalin I decided to give this jacket a go. I seem to notice that its curling up im not sure what i did wrong. Any ideas im on row 25 now
Hello, I have spent many hours making this jacket and to most part it looks wonderful, however it doesn't seem to met in the front, do you have any suggestions as to how I can fix this without unraveling what I have already done.
+Kerry Berry Hi Kerry, crochet the circle bigger. Greets, Julia
Hello, I'm just confused why you change stitches in row 8?
cin Phi
beautiful! love this video, thank you so much!
I have another question how can I make this for 2x or 3x and how long should i do my sleeves how many change should I make for the sleeves
It seems there is a misstake in the pattern. In round 12 I read 'skip 3 st', that's wrong. That should be 'skip 2 st'.
a very very good tutorial
Many thanks Mark!
Thank you for your beautiful pattern. I would like to know how many skeins of yarn or yards of yarn
Dear Lines, many thanks! Please find the information in the description. Regards, Julia

ايمان محمد Hi, if you want to make it bigger, continue crocheting the circle.
You're welcome Amguardo! Wish you a great weekend :-)
To make this jacket for a larger person what Rose should I start to the repeat after I get past 37
Hi Whoolpedia !
Thank you very much for your tutorials, it is well explained and your jacket is beautiful!

Woolpedia DE , I'm trying to make one, but it Will not lay flat like yours. what can I do? Please help!
Can you please tell us how long the pattern is .. In cm please because I'm doing another pattern.. Thank you !
Hi I was wondering if you could show me what the whole finished jacket looks like. Thank you!
Hi, you can see a picture on the website woolpedia.de
Oh thank you! Another question, would you just crochet less circles if you want to make the jacket size smaller?
XLheart
yes, of course you will need to do the arm slits for a smaller shirt size. hope that helps :)
I wish I could upload a picture here of the one I did, I am working on one for myself, but to practice I did one for my Chihuahua and it is very cute. Instead of arm holes I did a neck hole.
Thanks a lot for the pattern it's really lovely but I have the same problem with some of the people who commented below after the 13 circle it's became wavy. How can I fix it?
Elpida T. Hi Elpida, you can leave it wavy or increase less or use a thinner hook.
Beautiful!!!!
Thank You, Thank You, for doing this Tutorial in English !!
So nice! Thanks!
Would it be possible to make it so this jacket has a hood?
Great than you. You are a great instructor
can you tell me what type of yarn you are using that would be about the same as US yarn. if you can tell me if its 4 ply, 3 ply, or 2 ply that will also help and is it the same type of yarn weight that you would use for baby clothing? I made it using Caron so soft yarn, but I think my jacket is a lot bigger then yours. I am also having issue with the shoulder falling off ... can you tell me about how many stitches you did from one end to the other before you do the arm holes. Also if you can post your email I can send you a photo of my project..
Hi mimi, this tutorial is neutral and for any yarn you like.
Thanks Katalin
Heyyy please answer. My wool is thicker and and can i use an 8 mm hook for this pattern please can I because i want a looser jacket and can i attach a hood in it.
