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 10 sts open across the back of the neck.

Front opening edging:
Attach yarn at bottom right (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 – 4: Ch-1, turn, hdc in each st to end.
Fasten off and move to sleeves.

Adding the sleeves to a crochet house coat

Sleeves:

Attach yarn at bottom center of armhole. This is where your underarm seam will be.
Row 1: Ch-1, hhdc in same st and each around. Join with sl st to top of first hhdc. (48)
Rows 2 – 17: Ch-1, turn, sk very first st (where the join was last row as pictured) and hhdc in each st around. Join with sl st to top of first hhdc. (32 sts after row 17)
**because of the sk you’ll have one less st each row**
Rows 18 – 54 (or desired length): Ch-1, turn hhdc in each st around (make sure first st goes into same as join). Join with sl st to top of first hhdc. (32)
Row 55: Ch-1, turn, hdc in each st around. Join using invisible join and weave in ends. (32)

Pockets:
Row 1: Ch-21, hhdc in 2nd ch from hook and in each across. (20)
Rows 2 – 15: Ch-1, turn, hhdc in each st to end. (20)
Row 16: Ch-1, turn, hdc in each st to end. (20)
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 16 rows up from the housecoat bottom and 10 stitches in from the edging.

  1. I love your patterns! I've just finished making this and it was only when I got to the edging that I realised I'd done the whole thing in the wrong stitch. Never mind. I wondered why I had so much yearn left over and why none of the measurements seemed right. It's an excuse to make another. Thank you so much for your amazing website, it's really helped me move on from plain blankets.
  2. I feel as though as though I Ann in between the one size and the small coat. If I used a chunky size 5 yarn with the small size pattern, do you think that will work and just be thicker/larger?
