Supplies
Size 4 mm hook, Size 5.5 mm hook
Size 5.5 mm Tunisian hook with a cable extender
Tape measure - very important!

This pattern will teach you to measure and crochet to fit.

Yarn
Lion Brand Ferris Wheel (Vintage Carousel) 8 balls / 270 yds each for size SMALL
3oz / 85g. I think it would be beautiful using fingering yarn also, but you’d have to watch gauge closely. Any yarn other than this will make your tunic look and fit differently.

GAUGE
4” x 4” = 16 dc and 11 Crab Stitch Rows with this yarn. Everyone crochets differently. Some tighter, some looser. This is why we check gauge, it is important.

Pattern is written for size SMALL with instructions for altering the pattern to fit individual sizes.

Garment is worked side to side beginning with left front. Shoulder seams are made at same time as rows.
