I know how much we all love a good video tutorial, so I decided to whip up another pattern for a crochet housecoat, this time for the babes! In this video tutorial I make an infant size Hedonist Housecoat using the following new pattern – start to finish. Follow along!
If you are using this video to get the gist of crocheting the larger patterns, that works great too! Just exchange the stitch counts with the stitch counts in the size you are making. The construction of the body, the sleeves, and the pockets are all the same. Same concept, different sizes of housecoats! And now the entire family can sport one while hanging around the house. Oh yassss!

VIDEO Tutorial for Hedonist Housecoat
Materials:
Medium/size 4/worsted weight yarn
-approx. 350 yards
Crochet hook size J/6mm
Gauge:
12 hhdc and 10 rows = 4″ square
-Need help adjusting your gauge? This article will help!
-Pattern is written using US terms.
-Place first st of each row in same as turning.
Note! I thought this would be more of a 24 month cardigan, but it came out right at 12/18 month size. If you want the housecoat longer, simply crochet more rows before starting the armholes.
Approximate measurements for 12 month housecoat:
Body circumference: 23″
Height (neck to hem): 12″
Upper arm circumference: 9″
Lower sleeve circumference: 5.5″
Find the VIDEO tutorial below!
Pattern:
Fhdc – 66 (or ch-67, hdc in 2nd ch from hook and each across) (66)
Rows 2 – 20: Ch-1, turn, hhdc in each st to end. (66)
Do not fasten off.
If desired, mark 13 sts and 18 sts in from each side (these will mark your armholes)
First side:
Row 21: Ch-1, turn, hhdc in first 13 sts only (first st marker). (13)
Rows 22 – 32: Ch-1, turn, hhdc in each st to end. (13)
Fasten off leaving long tail.
Back:
Attach yarn at 19th st to create back portion:
Row 21: Ch-1, hhdc in same st and next 29 sts (between st markers). (30)
Rows 22 – 32: Ch-1, turn, hhdc in each st to end. (30)
Fasten off leaving long tail.
Second side:
Attach yarn at 54th st to create second side (last st marker):
Row 21: Ch-1, hhdc in same and each to end. (13)
Wanna save this for later?
Rows 22 – 32: Ch-1, turn, hhdc in each st to end. (13)
Fasten off leaving long tail.
You now have three panels and two armholes. Fold the two outside panels in and sew the shoulders using the Mattress Stitch. You should have 4 sts open across the back of the neck.
Front opening edging:
Attach yarn at bottom right (as if you were wearing the housecoat) with sl st.
Row 1: Ch-1, hdc (not hhdc) up the front to shoulder, across neck and down the other front.
Rows 2 – 3: Ch-1, turn, hdc in each st to end.
Fasten off and move to sleeves.
Sleeves:
Attach yarn at bottom center of armhole. This is where you underarm seam will be.
Row 1: Ch-1, hhdc in same st and each around. Join with sl st to top of first hhdc. (30)
Rows 2 – 16: Ch-1, turn, sk very first st (where the join was last row as pictured) and hhdc in each st around. (because of the sk you’ll have one less st each row) (15)
Rows 17 – 20: Ch-1, turn, hhdc in same st as join and in each st around. (15)
Row 21: Ch-1, turn, hdc in each st around. Join using invisible join and weave in ends. (15)
Pockets:
Make two
Row 1: Ch-11, hhdc in 2nd ch from hook and in each across. (10)
Rows 2 – 7: Ch-1, turn, hhdc in each st to end. (10)
Row 8: Ch-1, turn, hdc in each st to end. (10)
Fasten off leaving a super long tail for sewing to housecoat front.
Position your pockets evenly on both sides and sew to housecoat using a yarn needle. I placed the bottom of my pockets 4 rows up from the housecoat bottom and 3 stitches in from the edging.
That’s IT! I hope you love it. Share photos of your housecoat with me by tagging @HeartHookHome on Instagram and Twitter, and sharing in the Heart Hook Home Crochet Community group on Facebook!
