Crochet pointed hem vest

Crochet pointed hem vest

For sophisticated and stylish outerwear, I’d put on a pointed-tailed vest. It’s all about the V lines that flatter any size. Just check out the V neck and inverted V lines of the hem. This opened front pointed hem vest was designed with lightweight cotton yarn and mainly simple crochet stitches. Hence, it’s a simply trendy crochet project for most crocheters.

Note: I used chainless starting dc for every first dc of each row/ round instead of ch 3. There’s another good crochet technique to use is ch 2, dc into the same stitch ( counted as 1st dc). In the pattern below you’ll see I simply state dc into 1st stitch for every first dc of each row/ round, so choose your best technique 🙂

Special stitches used: 

V stitch: ( dc, ch1, dc ) into same stitch or space.

2dc – V stitch: ( 2dc, ch1, 2dc ) into same stitch or space.

This crochet Pointed Hem Vest pattern fits size L ( chest size: 36 to 38 inches ).

Skill level: Intermediate

Gauge: 8 double crochet stitches x 5 rows = approximately 2 inches ( with materials indicated )
