This crochet pattern is for a striking menswear tunic, with a bold houndstooth pattern. The design includes oversized shoulders, half length sleeves and a V Neck held together with a toggle. The tunic is designed using DK cotton yarns to keep the wearer cool.
The pattern assumes you can already change colours in the middle of rows and at the ends. The pattern uses the counting method for the houndstooth design.

The garment is made in four pieces and then sewn together. The instructions include lots of detail to ensure complex shaping is made easy. There is a lot of stretch in the finished item, so the sizing is only approximate.

I have listed this pattern as “Intermediate” because of the colour changing techniques.
