Nobile Jacket in Adriafil Llama

What is Being Made

The Nobile Jacket is a structured crochet garment designed in size 48 (with adjustable sizing options for 46-50). This downloadable PDF pattern provides complete instructions for creating a tailored jacket using super chunky yarn, resulting in a substantial, wearable piece suitable for cooler weather.

Yarn and Materials

This pattern requires 1 kg of Adriafil Llama yarn in dark grey (colorway no. 74). Llama yarn is a natural fiber choice known for its softness and warmth. Additional materials include a crochet hook size 6, 4 large matching buttons for closure, and a tapestry needle for finishing and weaving in ends.

Gauge and Sizing

The pattern is worked to a gauge of 13 stitches and 6 rows over 10x10 cm when using crochet hook size 6 in treble stitch. The finished jacket is available in three size options: 46, 48, and 50, allowing for customization to fit different body measurements.

Crochet Stitches and Techniques

The Nobile Jacket employs fundamental crochet stitches and techniques:

• Chain stitch: Used to establish the foundation of each garment piece
• Treble crochet: The primary stitch used throughout the body of the jacket, creating a fabric with good drape and structure suitable for a super chunky yarn weight
• Crab stitch: Applied as a finishing technique, worked as a double crochet from left to right to create a decorative, textured edge

Pattern Construction

The jacket is constructed using a raglan sleeve style, a classic tailoring technique that creates diagonal seam lines from the underarm to the neckline. The pattern provides detailed shaping instructions for the back and front pieces, including specific decreases to form the raglan armholes. The back piece begins with a chain of 77 (73-81) stitches depending on size, and the garment measures 43 (40-46) cm in length before raglan shaping begins. Strategic decreases are worked at regular intervals to achieve the proper fit and silhouette. The front pieces follow similar construction principles with their own shaping sequences, and button placement allows for a classic buttoned closure.

Skill Level Considerations

This pattern assumes familiarity with basic crochet techniques including chain stitches, treble crochet, and decreasing stitches. The use of super chunky yarn means the project works up relatively quickly despite the 1 kg yarn requirement, making it an accessible project for intermediate crocheters.
