~*This crochet pattern bundle includes 4 main PDFs, plus a bonus PDF for all the Tunisian techniques you need to create these two unique patterns! Save $4 by buying these designs together!*~
~*1. Shaman Coat*~
A warm, practical outerwear garment with a touch of magic! The Shaman Coat uses the unique structure of Tunisian crochet to create a gorgeous woven look that is eye-catching with any variegated yarn. Featuring a deep, draping hood and cropped kimono-style sleeves, the Shaman Coat includes the pattern for three sizes (S,M,L). This jacket is made from a few simple rectangles, resulting in piece that mimics the cut and open-wear style of indigenous loom garments.
The entire main body of the Shaman Coat is worked flat in simple rectangles and completed with only two easy seams while the hood is picked up and worked flat with decrease shaping and then closed with a partial seam at the top. Pattern includes schematics and detailed written instructions as well as close-up photos!
Never worked Tunisian crochet before? The Shaman Coat pattern includes a Tunisian Primer, with photo and written tutorials for every single Tunisian technique needed to complete the pattern - including basic Tunisian crocheting itself. Learn something new AND look amazing!

~*2. Priestess Coat*~
Create a prismatic rainbow robe or a shimmering mantle dark as a raven's feather with the imaginative Priestess Coat, a full-length Tunisian Crochet pattern written for six sizes (XS-2XL). Expanding on the ideas of my simpler Shaman Coat design, this all-new pattern combines the ease of construction with flattering flair using corset lacing and graceful pointed panels.
You'll want to find any reason to wear this glorious garment - the monkishly wide, lightly flared sleeves are great for tucking in nippy hands while the hood keeps the neck and head toasty. Easy corset lacing in the back creates structure and adds interest, leading down to the stars of the show - the diamond panels, stitched individually into openings left in the pattern of the main coat!
Though it looks complex, the Priestess Coat is crocheted with just Tunisian Simple Stitch and a few other basic techniques. The pattern includes written instructions for sizes XS-2XL, detailed tutorial photographs, schematics, and how-to's for all the special stitches needed to create this magical mantle.
The PDF files included in this listing also have a Tunisian Primer for those that have never worked Tunisian crochet before, and links to my video resources made specifically for my Tunisian coat patterns!

~*3. Elf Coat*~
