Pink tie front cardigan jacket crochet pattern
Step-by-step crochet instructions
Part 1 video tutorial
Begin crocheting the cardigan from the bottom to top.
Step 1
Make a foundation chain of 137 chs or multiples of 6 chs plus 5 additional chs.
Use a larger size crochet hook.
1st row (wrong side) – h2ch, sc3, [ch5, sk3, sc3] to end + RC4
2nd row (right side) – h6ch, trc2, [ch2, sk2, sc1, ch2, sk2, trc3] to end + RC1
3rd row – h2ch, sc3, [ch2, sk2, trc1, ch2, sk2, sc3] to end + RC4
Alternate the 2nd and 3rd rows about seven times, and then continue crocheting the pattern using a smaller size crochet hook.
Step 2
Decrease
30th row – h7ch, trc1, [ch2, sk2, sc1, ch2, sk2, trc3] to 1 last repeat; ch2, sk2, sc1, ch2, sk2, trc1, sk1, trc1
31st row – h2ch, sc1, [ch2, sk2, trc1, ch2, sk2, sc3] to 1 last repeat; ch2, sk2, trc1, sk2, dc1
32nd row – h2ch, sc1, ch2, sk2, trc3, [ch2, sk2, sc1, ch2, sk2, trc3] to 3 chs; sk2, dc1
Use a larger size crochet hook.
33rd row = 3rd row
Step 3
First front part
34th row – h7ch, trc1, [ch2, sk2, sc1, ch2, sk2, trc3] x 3, sk2, dc1
35th row – h2ch, sc3, [ch2, sk2, trc1, ch2, sk2, sc3] to 1 last repeat; ch2, sk2, trc1, sk2, dc1
36th row – h2ch, sc1, ch2, sk2, trc3, [ch2, sk2, sc1, ch2, sk2, trc3] to end + RC1
37th row = 3rd row
38th row = 2nd row
Alternate the 37th and 38th rows until you crochet 50 rows in total.
Step 4
Back part
Skip 7 chs from the 1st front part and attach the yarn.
34th row – ch2, sk2, trc3, [ch2, sk2, sc1, ch2, sk2, trc3] x 10, sk2, dc1
35th row = 3rd row
36th row = 2nd row
Alternate the 35th and 36th rows until you crochet 49 rows.
First back shoulder part
50th row – h6ch, trc2, [ch2, sk2, sc1, ch2, sk2, trc3] x 2, sk2, dc1
51, 53 rows = 3rd row
52, 54 rows = 2nd row
Join back and front shoulder pieces together working like the 3rd row.
Second back shoulder part
Attach the yarn or sl.st. down to 49th row of the back part.
50th row – (ch1, sk2, sc3, ch1, sk2, sl.st.1) x 5, ch2, sk2, trc3, [ch2, sk2, sc1, ch2, sk2, trc3] to end + RC1
51, 53 rows = 3rd row
52, 54 rows = 2nd row
Step 5
Second front part
Begin the 2nd front part as your back part: skip 7 chs from the back part and attach the yarn.
34th row – ch2, sk2, [trc3, ch2, sk2, sc1, ch2, sk2] x 3, trc1, sk1, trc1
35th row – h2ch, sc1, [ch2, sk2, trc1, ch2, sk2, sc3] to end + RC4
36th row – h6ch, trc2, [ch2, sk2, sc1, ch2, sk2, trc3] x 2, sk2, dc1
37th row = 3rd row
38th row = 2nd row
Alternate the 37th and 38th rows until you crochet 50 rows as for the first front part.

Hi Luz,
Hi Luz,
For the 46" chest circumference, I would work about 30 repeats or (30 x 6) + 5 = 185 chains. Happy crochet!

Hi seema,
If your gauge will be about the same as mine, you may follow the pattern exactly for the 36 inches bust circumference. Happy crochet!

Hi Manasa B H,
Hi Manasa B H,
For the 38 inches chest circumference, I would make a foundation chain of about 143 chs or (23 x 6) + 5. That way I will add one extra repeat to the back part (34th row – ch2, sk2, trc3, [ch2, sk2, sc1, ch2, sk2, trc3] x 11, sk2, dc1). Happy crochet!
