Beautiful cardigan. The pattern, colours and the way you explained all made it a wonderful tutorial

Very chic!! I love Chevrons! I asked a few Youtub me crocheters to make one, but no one has done it! I am so happy! Thank you! It has kinda a70’s vibe!

Yay! I'm glad I came through for you. Well, I"m a 70's gal so there you go. LOL!

I am a Resident Companion at an Assisted Living Facility for Senior Citizens and it is so cold at night at work...this would be so warm and cozy and be like wearing a blanket...It has been a very cold and snowy winter here in Ohio...I have looked at other cardigans to crochet but none were what I was looking for until I came across this one...thank you for sharing on how to make it larger...have a GREAT Day 🙂

[@CrazyCoolCrochet]

This makes me so happy to hear that this is helpful for you. In case you haven't seen this other long cardigan, this one is even warmer. Just giving you options for your work situation. kzbin.info/www/bejne/bJOqanuXfs14q9U

THank you. I'm so happy you like this design.

[@LuannL13]

Beautiful work @crazy cool crochet! I have been to your page and watched several of your videos. You wear a small and therefore it's understandable how you give all the instructions for your own size but am I correct if I wear any other size I need to purchase your patterns? I see you've been directing people to your page but there are no instructions there (such as additional rows or stitches needed for the larger sizes) Please direct me if I am wrong to create some of your cardigan coats. I love this and the red one. Thank you!

[@CrazyCoolCrochet]

As this is my only income I have had to try different strategies over the years. At the blog, the earlier designs did not include line by instructions for larger sizes. That would be in the Etsy patterns. Then I began to include the line by line for the larger sizes at the blog. And recently I stopped giving away the pattern instructions on the blog. The newest designs are only on KZbin and Etsy. I earn very little from the YT videos and even less from the blog ads. I must rely on the Etsy pattern sales. I takes SO MUCH WORK to design, write the pattern, calculate the changes for additional sizes, create and edit the video over several days, take and edit the photos, write and format the blog posts, write up the Etsy listings, work on social media posts, reply to questions daily on all the various formats...it makes no sense to just give away my work for free. My health has taken a turn for the worse and all of this is that much more difficult to execute. I apologize for the super long response, but I hope that this helps folks understand how I do what I do. Thank you for your support.

[@myleerose31866]

Of all your work this is my favorite piece. The yarn is lovely and the 6, 2, 2,2, repeat is so eye catching!!! Wow!!! Also the yarn doesn't look as dense as Caron Simply Soft. CSS is soo heavy.

[@CrazyCoolCrochet]

Thank you so much Stacy. I love that you see and appreciate all the detail in the design and even in the choice of yarn. This is one of my favorite yarns to work with and this piece is also one my personal favorites. Thank you for taking the time to comment.

[@aitighale2243]

can we add buttons there?its just wonderful....amazing

[@CrazyCoolCrochet]

Thank you so much! Yes, you can add buttons. You'll work the buttonholes along the border. Depending on the size of the buttons, just skip one or two spaces as you are working the border and continue the border rows as normal. Thank you for watching and commenting!

[@kimwilliamson4652]

How many chains for a 2x 300?

[@cmarsh1335]

I dont see the weight of the yarn listed... is that not important? I want to make this for muy mom for xmas. Im pretty new to crochet but pick up on it pretty fast!

[@CrazyCoolCrochet]

Thank you for bringing that to my attention. I didn't realize I missed mentioning the weight of the yarn. Yes, that is super important! It's a #4 medium weight. I added a link to a comparable yarn in the description area below the video. It should be a thinner #4 with a slight sheen. The sheen isn't crucial, but adds a nice touch. I would never steer anyone away from trying any of my patterns, but this is definitely not a beginner pattern. I admire your confidence! Go for it.

[@cathykillion6241]

Question does this yarn as soft and shiny as Caron’s simply soft yarn? Also how many yards in a skein and how many total skeins used for this cardigan? Really appreciate your videos thank you again. You make it look so easy 💜❤️😁

[@CrazyCoolCrochet]

Yes, this yarn is almost identical to Caron's Simply Soft. As for the detail, as always, I have that in the description area (as I say in the video :) ) Click where it says Show More under the video, in the white space. Or you might need to click a tiny V (arrow) next to the name of the video. Thank you for the kind words!

[@phungtieu4133]

What other wool can I replace? Thanks you very much !

You can use any #4 yarn that is not too thick and has a soft drape. Thank you for watching!

Hi Dina. Thank you for the questions. There is a lot more info in the "description area", the white space below the video. You need to manually open it up. Acrylic yarn was used. The size is Small as shown on 0:55. And it is never easy to make a tutorial...maybe you were trying to say it is easy to not mention some things? Thank you for watching.

I gave you a thumbs up for the design, it is beautiful and I am definitely going to make this but I found you tended to over explain things too much.

[@CrazyCoolCrochet]

I do appreciate the thumbs up! And I'll keep in mind not to over explain. Some folks need more hand holding than others. :)

[@chapelchicks8851]

@@CrazyCoolCrochet I didn't mean to sound rude or harsh....If you hadn't have said at the beginning, "I'm assuming you aren't beginners" I would have understood why you did. However, us folk who already crochet would only need telling once, twice at the most. So sorry if I offended you. You will be pleased to know I have made a start on the cardigan. Mine is going to be in 4 colours, dark purple, medium grey, dark burnt orange and a multicolour fleck wool with all three of those colours in it. The multi fleck being the main colour.

[@CrazyCoolCrochet]

@@chapelchicks8851 Ah, you are correct that I did mention at the start this wasn't meant for beginners. Good point! I'll definitely try to remember when it's not for beginners I don't need to repeat over and over. No offense taken at all. Truly. I appreciate the feedback! Your colors sound amazing. Enjoy.
