This beginner friendly crochet vest is perfect for beginners! You'll only need to know the double crochet and chain stitches. The vest is worked in three rectangular panels: two blue front panels, and one red and white striped back panel. You'll just have four short seams to join it! The instructions are written for a 4T toddler girl’s size, but I have included instructions for how to customize the vest to ANY size. I haven’t posted photos, but my adult Women’s Large sized vest only used two skeins of blue, and one each of red and white, also. If you need additional guidance, please leave me a blog comment! If I have a few requests, I’d be happy to provide a fully sized pattern in the future,or just give you tips for finding measurements.
