Looking for a weekend project to crochet?! I am so excited to letting you know that after another labor intensive and scrupulous week of work, Marguerite jacket pattern was born, YAY – what a lovely end of week!!! I can’t believe this pattern took me almost 5 weeks to be written, tested, charted, tested again, etc. Well, it’s really pretty easy and fast jacket to crochet and I hope you will enjoy it! But due to lace patterns used and according gauge-thing, it was a challenge to manage all 6 sizes matches YarnStandards.com plus some unexpected technical “surprises” while re-sizing. I ended up with NUMBER of stitch diagrams and tested almost all sizes to make sure math is work. So, let me introduce…

Marguerite

Think springtime sweetness, think fields and meadows filled with daisy flowers! Capture the soft, girly pink of spring and adorn your little Princess with this delicate and festive jacket! This piece boasts a stylish buttoned front with sweet contrasting trim and darling tiers of ruffles for extra flair. But turn around and add more panache to the already exciting look! A delicate silky ribbon woven in the back of the jacket adds the perfect finishing touch to delight the lucky wearer. Perfect for an Easter egg hunt or for visiting the Easter Bunny, this jacket keeps chilly weather at bay and is sure to become a favorite to be worn again and again.
