I've been crocheting more than 40 years and have never made a wearable other than a beanie, toboggan or scarf. This will be my first. Wish me luck.

[@tammi67able]

I don’t think I can but since u said it , I think I will try and I think I can

[@BAGODAYCROCHET]

You definitely can! 😊

[@eightxxxx8]

immediately saw the thumbnail and thought, OMG EXACTLY WHAT I WANT TO MAKE!!!

[@judyeuller7602]

The very first item I ever crocheted was a wrap cardigan using 2 strands of yarn. I then made 2 sweater vests. And then nothing for about 45 years. I started crocheting again at the start of the pandemic, but I've yet to make a wearable. I think this cocoon cardigan will break the draught. 😊

[@BAGODAYCROCHET]

❤️❤️❤️

[@kismymailks]

I did almost the same thing. I made cardigans, pullovers, hats, and scarfs for my kids every year when they were little. Then, I stopped for 39 years and picked it back up just this year. This will make a great project for a gift for my daughter-in-law for Christmas.

[@victoriawilson3181]

This is beautiful, and I love your yard. There is so much room for your animals to run free! Your a beautiful human being Crystal I love your tutorials 💖 💗

That yarn is very pretty and has great stitch definition, you are right it looks easy but time consuming with the ribbing.

[@monirice4099]

Yes I am struggling

[@Sandra-s6s2y]

Thank you so much for this video. You are a wonderful teacher, and I've already started the sweater. It's a little tricky starting it, but once you get going, it's very easy. Beautiful sweater. I'm 75 years old and crocheted most of my life, and this is so fun to do.

[@dj0ub0x]

I started crochet about a month ago and came across this video. I finished my cocoon cardigan yesterday and I love it ! Thank you so much for sharing. ❤

Hi Chrystal, I have always wanted to crochet the cocoon cardigan but always found it a little intimidating. I just saw your tutorial, and I know that by following it, I will be able to do it. Thank you, Chrystal, for the way you explained it. It's so easy to follow!

[@BAGODAYCROCHET]

You are so welcome!

[@Jannycat777]

You just made my day. I wanted a comfy cardigan that was easy to make. I actually started making 2 different ones yesterday and didn't like either pattern. If I don't enjoy making it, it's not worth it. Later in the afternoon I saw this and have already started it. Thank you so very much. It's perfect!!!

[@BAGODAYCROCHET]

Thank you 😊

I love Cocoon Cardigans! I prefer them over sweatshirts, hoodies, and flannel; it is just so cozy! I definitely have to make me a couple! My sister's will probably ask for one each, after they see mine. 😂

[@gwennnevland3607]

I have wanted one if these sweaters for so long. I am grateful you made this tutorial thank you so much.

[@thisbushnell2012]

Beautiful, richly textured. 2 projects to finish, then _this one for sure_ !

[@lindarandall]

I just got my yarn today and will start tomorrow. Also bought the pattern because I love your patterns and like to have them on hand for backup. Lovely thanks. My senior center stitch group are all about cocoons right now. We make things for charity .

[@sandrarogers1200]

I've been wanting to make one of these for a very long time! Okay, now is the time! Not one just for me but for my daughter too! Maybe one to match for her little daughter to match!

[@seaside2001]

I made a bunch of these the Christmas before the pandemic. Needless to say everyone used and wore them out the following two years. Lot of fun to make and the only difference in mine was a tighter wrist band area.

[@Me_Ewe_and_Yarn_Cheryl]

What a great pairing of stitch and yarn colour. It's will be so warm and snuggly - perfect for when the snows arrive. George seemed to really like it, too!

[@BAGODAYCROCHET]

I made a blanket with this “blanket stitch” in gold and it is beautiful. It almost feels like a weighted blanket. I really enjoy it so I think this stitch will make a wonderful sweater.
