    Smile Hello! This is my first time here. Need some help! Please..

    I'm Sue and I've been crocheting for a long time. My sister taught me and I've made all kinds of items. I'm looking for a pattern but I don't know what it is called. It is like the little "capelets" ladies wear over shirts. The ones I've seen have been bought in stores not hand made. I have a request for one and can not find a pattern. What I need is a pattern. It's kinda like a sweater, very short, comes under the bust, short caplet sleeve. Any ideas or suggestion please. Thank you.

    I'm not sure what it's called. It comes just below the bust and can have a short sleeve. It's like a short wasted sweater. Thank you for the info, I will check it out. And thanks for the welcoming. I have never joined a group like this, should be fun. I have been crochering for a very long time, I was in my teens. I love to crochet and read.

    Probably looking for a shrug. Go to Ravelry or one of the yarn companies' webside and put <free crochet shrug pattern> in the SEARCH box. Plenty of them will appear.
