Vintage Cocoon Jacket

[Mrs. P]

Good Morning Everyone!
This is my first attempt at showing off my work.
I love reading all your posts and wish I had more time to join in.

Way back in 1982 I bought a Woman's Day magazine
with a free crochet pattern for a Cocoon Jacket.
I loved the blocks of color so I made one for myself.
and I absolutely LOVE wearing my cocoon sweater.
It's not too heavy and after several years of washing it's so soft.

I haven't picked up the pattern since then and that's 31 years!
My Mother in law wanted me to crochet a sweater
for her Girlfriend so I decided to make the Cocoon again.
I had to make this one an Extra large and added 2 front pockets.
I hope you like it.
