Square With A Heart:
CH 22
Row 1: Work 1 SC into 2nd CH from hook, work 1 SC into each CH until end ( 21 SC), turn
Row 2 – 25: CH1, work 1 SC into each ST until end ( 21 SC), turn.
FO after last row and weave in ends.
This part you have a choice: you can either Cross Stitch a Heart like I did, or Crochet a Heart and sew it onto the square.
Cross Stitch Heart:
This is heart chart: you work from the bottom to the top –
the first cross stitch is made on the 7th row over the 11th stitch
Here are some great tutorials on How To Cross Stitch

I would love to take credit for this jacket but it is not my pattern. I only featured the jacket because I love it and want to make one for my own little girl. The best advice I can give you is to work with a larger hook then that what is given. If the first few rows go around her bottom and can close over her stomach then the jacket will be big enough 🙂 With the sleeves a few extra rounds can be worked to give it length.
It’s easy to adjust the size: add or lose one flower and the pattern will work out itself.
Hope that helps 🙂
My little girl is turning 4 and she is big enough for 5-6 clothes sizes 🙂 So I always have to make some adjustments 🙂
Have an awesome day!
Hi could I please get a pattern for the jacket in a size 5 thank you
