Tutor's Suggestions

Adjust chain count to your bust measurement; always use multiples of 10 plus 7.
If your tension is tight, use a larger hook for your foundation chain so the base is not narrower than your fabric.
For longer coats, increase length before splitting for front/back.
Use stitch markers for easy division and precise shaping.

Step-by-Step Pattern

Step 1: Foundation Chain and Sizing

Measure bust (e.g., 92 cm for size M).
Make a foundation chain in multiples of 10 + 7 until it reaches the bust width. Example: 147 chains for 92 cm.
If needed, adjust by adding or removing chains to maintain the multiple (e.g., 147, 157).

Step 2: Fancy Stitch Pattern (Repeat for Length)

Row 1:

Skip first 3 chains. Work 1 dc in next chain, and 1 dc in each of next 3 chains (total 5 dc).
Chain 5, skip 2 chains, sc in next chain.
Chain 5, skip 2, 5 dc in next 5 chains, chain 5, skip 2, sc in next chain.
Repeat the sequence to end. Finish with 5 dc.

Row 2:

Turn, chain 3. Dc in next 4 sts (total 5 dc).
In chain-5 space: chain 3, sc in third chain of the space.
Repeat for each chain-5 space. After completing 3 chain spaces, repeat 5 dc group.
Continue to end. Finish with 5 dc.

Row 3:

Turn, chain 3. Dc in next 4 stitches (total 5 dc).
Skip chain space, work 7 dc in next space.
Continue pattern: 5 dc, skip space, 7 dc in next space; repeat to end.

Continue repeating Rows 1–3 for pattern.

Step 3: Body Length

Work pattern repeat until the body reaches 35 cm from hem to underarm.

Step 4: Divide for Back & Fronts

Measure back width (e.g., 48 cm).
Deduct back width and 6 cm for armholes (3 cm per side) from total bust width.
Split remaining stitches evenly for left and right front.
Mark stitches for back and fronts.

Step 5: Back Section

Continue pattern in straight rows over back stitches for 19 cm (armhole depth).

Step 6: Front Sections

Work each front separately for 10 cm straight in pattern.
Begin neckline shaping with decreases (see next step).

Step 7: Neckline Shaping (Each Front)

Decrease rows:

Work decreases (dc2tog) at neckline edge, as directed in transcript.
First decrease: Work 3 chains, dc2tog over next 2 stitches.
Work remaining stitch groups as usual.
Continue decreases as directed, until you have the same number of rows as back (16 rows).
Mirror the process for the second front.

Step 8: Shoulder Seaming

Align fronts and back so right sides face each other.
Use tapestry needle and yarn to sew shoulder seams using chain stitches, alternating top and bottom layer (as per transcript).

Step 9: Sleeves

Attach yarn at marked armhole.
Work in pattern (groups of 5 dc, chain spaces, sc) in the round or back-and-forth, skipping 2–3 spaces as indicated (for looser sleeves, skip 2).
Work for 18 rows, then start decreases for sleeve shaping:
- Change chain spaces from 5 to 3, then to 2 chains; change 7 dc groups to 5 dc as directed.
Work a total of 45 rows (counting pattern rows and decreases).
Work finishing row in bar stitch (front/back post double crochet alternating).

Step 10: Finishing Edges

Work double crochet rows and bar stitch rows in front, bottom edge, and sleeve edges.
Add extra dc in corners and sides as needed.
Finish with bar stitch rounds for professional edge.

Step 11: Weaving in Ends

Use tapestry needle to securely hide all yarn tails inside the fabric.
Make finishing stitches to lock in the yarn.

Conclusion

You have now completed your seamless crochet coat! This garment combines comfort, warmth, and a classic texture. Enjoy your handmade piece, and share your finished coat with fellow crocheters or on social media for inspiration.

Pro Tip

Use stitch markers for every major division and decrease. If your starting chain is too tight, use a larger hook for chains and then switch to your project hook for the body. This prevents puckering.
