Use crochet granny squares to work up a sweater coat that's stylish and on-trend. This crochet coatigan is knee-length and features cuffed sleeves, a fold-down crochet collar and buttons to keep you warm against fall winds. Use bright shades of blue, as pictured here, for a fresh take on fall fashion, or choose your own shades. This crochet coatigan is an easy pattern and is available in sizes ranging from small through 3xl.
