Magic diamond jacket

Magic Diamond Jacket reveals how a simple shift in direction can unlock a standout garment. By turning a classic granny square on its side, you create a striking diamond that shapes beautifully on the body and is guaranteed to fit.

In this hands-on workshop, Jenny King will help you master the diamond technique and learn how to shape a jacket for a flattering fit. You will create a mini version to practise the key steps and build skills you can scale into a cosy winter layer or a lightweight summer duster.

This elegant method underpins high-end boutique designs, and once you learn it, the possibilities for modern wearable crochet open up. This may become your favourite garment-making method once you master the technique, thanks to its simplicity.

• Smooth 8 ply yarn in a long self-striping colourway OR 3 solid colours, approx. 50gm per colour
• 4mm - 6mm crochet hooks
