inches which is about 46 centimeters now if you're   off by maybe half an inch or a couple centimeters 
it's okay just continue with the 88 chains now to   begin what we're going to do is we're going to 
join to the first chain so we're going to do   this so that our chain is not twisted now insert 
your hook into the first chain this one here and then join with a slip stitch now chain one and actually chain two 
these two chains never count as a stitch   now yarn over and insert your hook again 
into the last chain and through the first chain here and make a double crochet now work one double crochet for 
each one of the remaining chains so   into this next chain make a double crochet 
double crochet into the next and so on   this is all i'm going to do for this first row 
and at the end of this row i'm going to have   88 double crochets continue and i'll meet you here 
at the end okay i'm here at the end of this first   row this is where we did double crochets and i 
have a total of 88 double crochets now to finish   go on top of the first double crochet and join 
with a slip stitch now for the second row chain   two the two chains never count as a stitch now in 
this row we're going to alternate between a front   post and a back post double crochet so beginning 
into this first double crochet make a front post   double crochet back post double crochet into 
the next front post double crochet into the next and back post double crochet into the next 
this is all i'm going to do for this second   row a front post double crochet and a back 
post double crochet continue like this for   this second row and i'll meet you at the end i'm 
here at the end of this second row now to finish   this row we're just going to go on top of the 
first double crochet and join with a slip stitch   now for the third and fourth row you're going 
to do the same thing you're going to chain   two and then work a front post double 
crochet and then a back post double crochet   front post double crochet and back post double 
crochet and so on we're going to do this for this   third row and then for the fourth row the same 
thing so continue and i'll meet you at the end   of the fourth row okay i'm here at the end of 
this fourth row now to finish go on top of the   first double crochet and join with a slip stitch 
and this is how i finish this fourth row now for   the first row we're going to start counting 
rows so we're going to start using our pattern   chain three and into the same stitch where we 
did the slip stitch make two double crochets now skip one two and into the 
third make three double crochets again skip one two and into the third again 
three double crochets skip one two and into   the third three double crochets this is how i'm 
going to continue for this first row so continue   like this and i'll meet you at the end of this row 
okay i'm here at the end of this first row now up   to here i have 29 fans and i have three stitches 
here what i'm going to do here i need to make one   more fan so i'm going to skip one and and into 
the next i'm going to make three double crochets   now to finish pinch the third chain here to the 
side and join with a slip stitch and this is how   i finish this first row with a total of 30 fans 
now from here on we're going to have to turn for   every row this stitch you can easily make where 
you work it in the round but i'm not going to   do that because once we come to the separation 
of the front and the back panel we're going to   have to work this stitch in rows so it's going to 
have a different texture once we do that so i'm   going to turn for every row starting here so to do 
this we're going to turn now we're going to chain   three and we're going to go down to the row below 
and into this stitch that we left in between   the two fans i'm going to make a double crochet 
then right next to it to the side i'm going to   make another double crochet again jump to the 
next space between the fans so right here make a   double crochet to the row below and make a double 
crochet into that stitch that we left and then   to the side a double crochet now these next 
ones we have two stitches these two were the   last two that we did we only had one stitch in 
between but here we have two stitches so you're   going to have to be consistent you're either 
going to the first or into the second what   i'm going to do is i'm going to go into the first 
so make your first double crochet then go to the   row below and into that first double crochet make 
another double crochet and then right to the side   another double crochet so double crochet 
go down to the row below and into the first   double crochet make a double crochet and 
right next to it here make a double crochet and that's all we're going to 
do go down to the row below   make a double crochet and a double crochet here 
to the side okay so continue like this for this   second row and i'll meet you here at the end 
okay i'm here at the end of this second row   now to finish this row we're always going to pinch 
here the third chain and join with a slip stitch   and this is how we finish this row now for the 
third row and all the rows to follow this is what   we're going to do you're going to chain three and 
turn and you're going to go down to the row below   well in this case we have the chains 
and then the two double crochets   right in the middle we have this double crochet 
so insert your hook right there and make a double   crochet and right to the side here make another 
double crochet again go into the next space   make a double crochet go down to the row below and 
in the middle insert your hook and make a double   crochet and right here to the side make another 
double crochet and that's all we're going to do   the important thing here is that you need to turn 
for every row and then everything else is the same   okay so continue for this third row i'll meet 
you once again here at the end to show you how   to finish each row and then how to start each 
row so that you can work the rest on your own   okay i'm here at the end of this third row 
not to finish this row and all the rows to   follow remember we always pinch 
the third chain here at the top   and we join with a slip stitch now for the fourth 
row and all the rows to follow you're always going   to chain three and turn and then here we're going 
to go below into the middle double crochet here   because we already have a double crochet here the 
three chains counts as your first double crochet   so go down into the middle double crochet make a 
double crochet and then here to the side make your   third double crochet again jump to the next space 
make a double crochet go down to the row below and   then the middle double crochet make a double 
crochet and right to the side a double crochet   and this is all we're going to do from here on i'm 
not exactly sure how many rows i'm going to do but   just continue watching and i'll let you 
know exactly how many rows i'm going to do   remember to finish you always join to the top here 
to the third chain with a slip stitch chain three   turn don't forget to turn for every row okay 
so continue watching and i'll meet you at the   end of that row okay did a total of 22 rows 
and it's measuring from the top of this last   row to the bottom here it's measuring about 21 
centimeters which is about 8.25 inches now what   we're going to do is we're going to separate

the fifth row chain three and turn here in this   row we're going to reduce so we're going to 
skip this space and into the second space here   we're going to work our first pattern stitch 
this is the same thing we did for the front side   so now all you're going to do is just work

from here on we're just going to continue with the   same thing we did here in the two rows below we're 
going to work rows and you're going to alternate   between having 12 stitches or like in the next 
where you're going to have 13 so 12 13 12 13   until we reach the same height as this part 
here uh i think if i count it correctly it's   about 17 rows if not just continue watching 
and i'll let you know exactly how many rows   you're going to do so to start you off here for 
the sixth row you're going to chain three and turn   into this first space we're going to work our 
first pattern stitch but remember the three   chains counts as the first double crochet so go 
down to the row below and make your second double   crochet which is your long double crochet and 
then a double crochet right next to it and then   inside each one of the spaces you're going to work 
our pattern stitch now you're going to do this   all the way to the end of this sixth row here at 
the end you're going to make your last pattern   stitch here and you're going to have 13 for 
this row then you're going to chain three turn   and then repeat at the end of that row you're 
going to have 12 and then so on so here we're   not going to make any more reductions as you 
can see this is what it looks like we just work   the reductions that we did here and then from 
here on it's just a matter of just working rows   like i said until we reach the same height as 
the this part here of the shoulder so continue   and i'll meet you once this part here is done 
okay i'm here at the end of the 19th row now i   still need to do one more row so what i'm going to 
do here is i'm going to leave this part here open   without doing anything so what i'm going to do 
here is just work one two three of these pattern   stitches and then a double crochet so to do this 
we're going to chain three one two three turn and then to this first space go down below and 
make your long double crochet in a double crochet   here's our first pattern stitch and into the 
next two spaces you're going to do the same thing now here into this last space make a double 
crochet cut your yarn and pass your yarn   through this last loop i think i cut mine too 
short but anyways it was fine so here one two   three and then the double crochet 
which matches to the front panel here one two three now we're going to do 
the same thing for the other side   so we're going to turn this actually no we're 
not going to turn this we're going to actually   skip one two three four five six and into this 
space here we're going to grab a loop chain three   one two three jump to the next 
space and work your pattern stitch into the next one same thing and into this last space your last pattern stitch and there we have it three which should match up 
to this here perfect now cut your yarn and leave   a long tail because we're going to use this to 
seam both sides here so this part here is done   now we're going to seam this 
so turn this to the wrong side and we're going to go here here i mentioned 
to leave a long tail so we already have   this here so just pass this through your needle and we're going to go here now all 
of these stitches should match up   like this exactly so we're going to go 
into each one to close it see like this   perfect so go here on top of the first double 
crochet or the three chains insert your   needle like this and then back again to 
reinforce this first stitch perfect and then go   from actually my yarn is on this side so 
go from this side into the second stitch   and then into the third stitch and 
then to the third one on this side   and then we have the first double 
crochet of the next pattern stitch   find the next one here which is the first one 
and we're going to go into the next and so on   we're going to do this until this part here is 
closed so make sure you match up these stitches on both sides and then one more the three 
chains and then the double crochet and then just reinforce this 
one here by going over it again perfect so now this side here is done that's what 
it looks like from the inside or the right side   now you're going to do the exact same thing here 
for this side we have this yarn here that we left   and you that's what you're going to use to close 
it do it in the exact same way so so go ahead and   do this side and i'll come back and show you what 
we need to do next okay i finished joining both   sides and this is what it looks like so now we're 
going to work single crochets right here in the   center so here insert your hook right here where 
we have this center uh fan stitch or this center   you know the three double crochet so right in 
the middle insert your hook there grab a loop   like this bring it through the front and chain one 
if we don't do this then there's going to be a gap   and i want to try to close all these gaps with 
these single crochets that we're going to do so   there's my first chain now go here to 
the side there is no right or wrong way   of doing this you're just going to have to 
eyeball it and make single crochet so that   you are making a nice edge here the important 
thing is that it looks nice and that these gaps   that we have here uh no longer remain so with 
that said i'm just going to try my best to show   you what i'm going to do on this side i'm just 
going to work single crochets right there there's   no gap here so just work a normal single crochet 
along the side right there now here's a gap so   i'm going to go right here see right there make a 
single crochet and then there's still a gap there   and it looks like there's a gap there 
and it probably is stretched because i   try to do this before and i think this part 
here is getting a little stretched though   there i think that looks better now go here 
to the side right there make another one   another single crochet so far so good then into 
this other space single crochet into the next   single crochet right here to the side single 
crochet so this is what i'm going to do all around now here in the back i'm 
just going to work single crochet so   it's just going to be here on the sides where 
you can really see these um these holes so right   along the edge where there is no gap just 
make a single crochet there's one here so you're going to have to go into the stitches 
before like right here where we did either three   chains or double crochets and the point 
here is to make sure that it looks nice   and even like i said there's no right or wrong 
way of doing this you just do it where you think   it'll look good and to me i think this is 
looking pretty good let's see yes a lot better   so this is all i'm going to do for this part here 
then i'm going to work single crochets along this   part here and then work my way down in the same 
way so continue and i'll meet you here at the end   okay i finished making this other side here along 
the back all i did was just make single crochets   and i think it looks a lot better than how it 
was originally um the way that i had recorded   this part here i didn't like because there were 
gaps here but i think i like the way that this   looks now so you're going to continue with the 
single crochets around the sleeve i already did   mine this is just another recording that i did 
of this part here since i didn't like the first   time that i showed you so continue watching finish 
the rest of the vest and then i'll come back and   show you the finished vest now we're going 
to go here to this side and we're going to   do the same thing so i'm going to start here in 
this corner right here right there which is the   double crochet here of this pattern stitch so just 
insert your hook there into that corner chain one now into this same space here make a single 
crochet now jump to the next stitch which   is the next double crochet and work a single 
crochet so here we're just going to do these six   because we have three and three and 
now just jump here to this side this   is a double crochet so do two single crochets 
and then this one here is a chain so do one   and then two and then one 
two one two one and so on two one two one two one two one two one two one two one two and then one for this last 
row now jump to this other side   and it's probably going to be two now one   two then one and then two and so on you get the 
point there's no right or wrong way of doing this   just so that it looks the important thing is 
that it looks nice so continue all around this   is what it looks like and once you're you're done 
here you're just going to join to the top of the   first single crochet with a slip stitch cut your 
yarn and paste your yarn through that last loop   and then you're going to do this other side 
here you're going to do it in the exact same way   okay so continue and do both sides 
and then i'll come back and show you   our finished vest okay i finished making this 
other side and this is what it looks like so now   my vest is done and this is what it looks like 
i love the way that this stitch looks it's so   beautiful and it's got so much texture now let me 
give you the finished measurements from the top of   the shoulder down to the end here it's measuring 
about 37.5 centimeters which is about 14.5 inches   around this part here the chest it's measuring 
about 56 centimeters which is about 22 inches   and the sleeve opening it's measuring about 
16.5 centimeters which is about 6.5 inches   so based on these measurements this little 
vest here is for little boys between 1 and   2 years old or 12 to 24 months now you can 
also make it smaller or bigger down here   in the information box i'm going to leave you 
some information on how you can make it smaller   from six months or bigger up to five 
years old so be sure to check that out   okay so this was today's tutorial i hope you like 
it thank you so much for watching until next time
