A crochet jacket in NOMAD: granny squares in two colours
Share
Built from granny squares, this crochet jacket brings together two colours of NOMAD. The design comes with written PDF instructions and a video, giving you two complementary ways to follow the project.
Two colours, one clear rhythm
A two-colour palette lets the structure of each granny square take centre stage. Closely related shades create a calm, cohesive look, while a stronger contrast makes every motif stand out. Visit the product page to explore NOMAD by Lang Yarns and choose your combination.
- Tonal: Pair neighbouring shades for a gentle transition.
- Graphic: Combine light and dark colours to emphasise the geometry.
- Balanced: Use one main colour for continuity and the second to create rhythm.

How to use the PDF and video
The written PDF is a useful reference for the sequence, measurements and finishing details. The video provides a visual view of the process. Read through the PDF before starting, then use the video whenever a movement or assembly stage is easier to understand on screen.
Before joining the squares
- Make one test motif and compare it with the pattern measurements.
- Lay out all the granny squares to check the colour distribution.
- Join the motifs in the order given in the instructions.
- Follow the pattern carefully for the edges and finishing.
This simple preparation keeps the modular construction organised and helps the individual squares form a coherent jacket.
