Great tutorial thankyou, I have 1 question, how do work pricing out for customer, haven't got a clue what to charge. Thanks.

This is great but difficult to see things with black yarn

Ok I’ve decided on the yarns. Luckily I have two that match exactly. The mohair yarn has highlights that match the colors in the color changing yarn. Didn’t plan it that way, I just buy my favorite colors lol so I’ve been working on a lot of intermediate projects so I needed a fun break from overly challenging. Starting later today. Thank you so much for offering this for free!

The music wrecked this. Horrible

I loved I’m gonna make for Christmas ❤

Thanks so much ! :).

The Cocoknit workbook is a great resource!

You've just made sense as to why my first ever cardigan knit was a complete fail. I knit the burrows cardigan by fable knitwear and the fit is awful on me. I think you're spot on it terms of the difference between the full and upper bust. It's as though the neckline in total is far too wide and long so it doesn't fall right at all. It did have short rows to compensate for the back neck, but I found the fit looks nothing like how it should be fitting. I think the stitches at the top of the sleeve, that whole section is too wide for my shoulders which increases the length of the neckline substantially. I'm really trying to figure out if it's worth doing major surgery to avoid wasting months of work, or just cut my losses and frog the whole thing and try a non raglan construction. It was my first time knitting a cardigan full stop, so maybe I wasn't aware before I bought this pattern of the drawbacks of raglans. I just find this particular pattern doesn't fit my measurements well and I'm not quite knowledgeable enough to work out how to adjust the pattern to suit my body. I was so hoping blocking would save the fitting issues but it went from hmm okay, to totally unwearable. It is currently serving as a cat bed on my sewing desk while it's in timeout 🤣

I have a large cupsize and heres what I do. Cast on fewer sts on back, increases are then made as I put in short rows . Now sts count is almost the same as the front. I put 2 extra markers in the back , abt 8inches apart (4inches ea side of centre) and here I decrease every inch or so . By doing this I keep the consistency of the raglan increase and get a nicer back shaping. As I also have a cinched in waist, I continue the decs till an inch above the waist and begin increasing after . another note is that when shaping the sides, you can add iextra increases for the bust towards the bottom , that dont make the sleeve shaping different from the back . Sleeve, Pm, k1 , increase (as normal) then k2, extra increase. You get 2 extra stitches :). Depending on the yarn, and the positioning , it can look completely invisible.

Why can’t people post positive things.. if they don’t like or hear what is said no need to be rude… These people are just trying to help

Omg rude

Thanks for a very informative video! I have collected combed fur from my two spaniels and am wondering if it would be possible to spin it. Have you ever experimented with spaniel fur? It is very soft, slightly greasy but not very long

Oh my gosh, I have finally found a tutorial for a pattern I’m having the hardest time with! You are the best

It's not only bust and cross back measurements that may necessitate modification of raglan increases + rate, but also bicep measurement. I know that is not an issue for you, but it is for many : )

I'd love to see more of your spinning and fiber related videos! This video was very good!

I love the Nightmare Cardigan and the shawl at the beginning!

Loved your design and your math has left my head spinning, I think you are very talented to have worked this out, ❤ I’m definitely going to give this a try and hopefully I’ll succeed, your daughter sounds so happy 😊 I hope she grows up and has a brain like yours, all the best from a 74 year old granny from Scotland uk from Carol xx

Don’t listen to this … she’s complicating your life . If you’re not a hunch back.. you can make a Raglan …

So basic raglan works well for a men's sweater?

I'm about to try this with a solid and a matching variegated ! Thank you for showing me this.

Thank yo so much for this info. I’m learning but it’s hard to find the info for the reasons

Do you know of something for crochet like the CocoKnits Sweater Workshop?

Hi

This was an excellent video, very helpful. (I will say that as a crocheter, it's a lot easier to edit as you go since you've only got one stitch live - knitting tends to require more planning).

8:45 omg that sweater is horrible

Yes I have. I like contiguous set in sleeve shirts and sweaters. B(L)ack to Life by Isabell Kreamer, edie by Esabell. And many others who do contiguous set in sleeves. Coco knits method sweaters. Many others. Road construction terms listed on pattern page to help prevent from buying patterns you will never use. I have so many of those. I wish I could sell them all back to the designer at 1/2 to 1/4 return cost. I'm willing to loose half of the cost not all. Because Ibwas mislead to believe when I bought the pattern itveould be usable and enjoyed by me. But I get to trying them on and am disappointed. I frog it or try to redesign to fit and Im not a designer but the thing that's helped the mode is an adjustable mannequin so I can shape my sweaters on it and make fitting close. GAME CHANGER ALL THE WAY.

Great Video, thanks!

You may want to look at a new channel that popped up on my feed a few weeks ago. “Crochet by Fabio” Like you he takes the time to educate and teach. I want seamless pullover patterns that I can crochet for all the guys in the family. Patterns for me and my daughters are all over KZbin but good patterns my husband, adult sons, son in law and grandson are harder to find. Thank you for this great information! Keep making quality content!

I’ve been looking for an easy but good looking asymmetric shawl that my fumbling fingers can manage. This design is brilliant and will be just right for me.

A comment in defense of raglans: My first raglan was knit over 40 years ago as a young woman in Minnesota. That extra room under the arms was wonderful for cross country skiing, allowing full range of motion of the shoulders and arms. For anyone who loves to hike, especially with hiking poles or desires that extra range of motion for outdoor activities, a raglan can’t be beat. I still have a raglan pullover with pockets that I knit all those years ago for walking with the dog. That was before short rows so the pattern had the knitter working back and forth at the beginning, slowly casting on additional stitches to the ends, then casting on for the last front stitches and continuing in the round.

Where can I buy those equipment?

Oh wow, that metallic yarn is really pretty😮 i May have to get me some 😁

The best video on the subject that I have watched so far. The display of professional equipment shows how involved you are in the craft.

Still all "greek" to me. I've never crocheted a raglan sweater, but I'm going to need complete instructions.

I'm crying, I wish I saw this video befor starting my knit dress 🥲🥲🥲 Will do better next time haaaa thank you so much for the great infos!

Çook tesekkur ederim. Aradigim motivasyon buydu😊❤🎉

Just what I was looking for!!! Thank you so very much from Colorado ❤

Italians have very good videos about top down raglan and I also can recommend Tatting blossom, subtitled in engl

Gorgeous!! I hope to spin that evenly one day!!

Hello. Are you for hire? Looking for someone to do this for me.

I have a question so I forgot to make crochet buttonholes after I finished my cardigan. Is there a way to make buttonholes as an after thought without having to unravel the work I already did?

I wish I’d known about these issues with raglan cardigans before I made mine. I’ve tried everything, after the fact, to stop it from dropping off my shoulders. But because it isn’t shaped right it drops and I’m always tugging. I’m debating ripping it out and making another.

OMG I hate the extra bulk under the armpit! Just made a sweater with that issue! Thank you!

Neato torpedo

Gorgeous. Thank you.

Thank you so much for this resource. I will be watching this several times to absorb it. It is so hard to find information on the where and why to do increases to make sweaters and cardigans fit.

Pretty swal🥰, pattern great, the pdf is magnificent , the clear instructions as very well. NAMASTE.Thank you😘from Spain

I have always wondered why so many patterns tell you to crochet the front and the back exactly the same way. I am definitely not the same shape or measurements in the front and the back. However, since I am new to crocheting tops and sweaters, I really don’t understand all of the changes that you were recommending. At this point, I would have to rely on a designer doing this for me. I did look at the Aztec sweater by nomad stitches, and it doesn’t mention any special modifications being made to the sweater to make it fit better, but it also does not mention the word Raglan. However, I am reluctant to believe that just because the word raglan is missing that it means the sweater is guaranteed to fit properly. Thanks for this video. It has definitely got me thinking but I am a long way from truly understanding and implementing the different modifications on my own.
