Make a statement in this long-sleeved coat with its length of 30-31 inches. The 2 lace patterns and the ridge pattern combine to form textural stripes from top to bottom by using larger needles than usual. Adding the crocheted edging at the neck gives even more elegance. The instructions state that 4.50-5.00 mm needles and 3.50-4.00 mm hooks are required in order to achieve gauge for the different fabrics.
