Hi! My name is Katy and I designed this original pattern. I hope you love it just as much as I do! All my patterns are written in English using American crochet terms. All patterns assume basic stitch knowledge. You may sell what you make from my patterns.

The Labarre Cocoon is an ideal first garment project for any crocheter. Constructed as a large rectangle and then seamed to create the flowy sleeves, there is no shaping to figure out. Once the piece is together a simple trim is added around the outside to polish off the look. The cocoon is designed with a self striping yarn to provide interest to the extended single crochet pattern.
