Crocheting My First Short Sleeve Sweater!

[@RAPT0RCH1LD]

it turned out so cute! i love the colours!! this is the most realistic crochet experience lol. you start something you think will be an easy project or a side project but then it consumes you’re entire life and you only do it until it’s done. you make something with or without a pattern and it is just slightly off so you practically start over and undo it. and what you originally planned to do goes out the window and you end up with something different but you end up liking it so much. i relate to all of that! crochet is a *fun* hobby 😂😅😅

You're so fun to listen to while I sewed together granny squares!

[@simongolden5883]

I started a top down sweater a while back but haven't finished or worked on it in a while, but you've inspired me to get going on it again, and I think it will be super cute short sleeve!

[@beththoreson9216]

I love your channel and will follow whatever new craft you undertake. I love the short sleeve sweater! So cute! I would like to recommend Tunisian crochet to your list of new crafts to try out. I tried it a few years ago and it’s a fun addition to my arsenal. Faster than knitting and creates such beautiful fabrics. Just a thought.

this is so funny, i’m almost finished with my first ever raglan sweater just so happened to follow the SAME tutorial, and using a caron cake for the first time! mine, though, are caron cotton cakes which are a cotton/acrylic blend that i’m really liking! i have the calico flowers colorway which is like a nice muted rainbow :-) i’ve also been amazed by how fast it’s worked up!

[@gabrielleyelle]

Im obsessed with those caron cakes. Ive used the ripple cakes and the latte cakes and i want so many more but I dont know what to make 😅

[@MaryHill]

I love the colour and really like the fact you’ve made it short sleeved T-shirt style! 🥰

[@leannevantyghemleroux6003]

I'm catching up with all of your recent videos and I'm excited for more sewing content!

19:52 - The Struggle(tm). For real though, this short-sleeve top is amazing, and I can't wait to see the other colors done up in the future

[@Eve.v]

oh heck yes, i LOVE caron cakes !!!! i made my first blanket with caron cotton cakes, the calico flowers colorway. i love it so much. it's such a pretty pastel rainbow shade, and i am a simple man. i see rainbow but slightly pastel? i purchase. i ALSO made my first ever garment (loose-fitting granny square pullover) with the same yarn -- colorway seashell, iirc -- and i love it so much too!! they're a cotton/acrylic blend (40/60 i think?), and it is so frickin soft and smooth, i know exactly what you mean about how easily it glides on the hook!!!! i need to branch out into different blends of theirs, i was very curious about the one you tried and im glad to hear it's equally nice to work with!!! i LOVED all the colors you showed off !!! also: i have made a VERY similar mistake to one you did with this exact brand -- me: [using a 4 weight yarn but it's on the smaller side so i treat it like a size 3] the yarn: [works up larger than a size 3] me: [surprised pikachu]

[@bethknapp4935]

I looooove the Caron Cakes!! This came out adorable, and as usual, the colors are perfect!!! I'm looking forward to seeing this in the other colors!!!

[@daisymira2609]

Omg I love the cloud cakes! I have a knitted scarf with that stuff and the polyester threw me off too, but it's so squishy!

[@osmia]

Nice, cute, shirt. Looks great on you

[@quirkynewusername6378]

The Simpsons clip had me in nostalgic tears 😭 and was absolutely perfect for this vid!

[@SpacyMidnight]

Hehehe totoro looked banging !

[@fishwizard]

so cute!! i used the pink colorway of this yarn for a moss stitch scarf and its so delightfully cozy.. now i'm inspired to pick up the yellow one 💛

[@twilafreek25]

I have so many Caron Cloud Cakes because I love them so much haha

[@daniellegillett4801]

This is super cute! I'm currently addicted to making granny square sleeveless jumpers/vests

[@LoveSheyCrochet]

I now need this color!!! Love the T-shirt look with it!

[@m1croot]

Wow!! I really like this project and now inspired to do my own I was looking for spring pieces and this is just perfect And only takes around 250g of yarn!

[@paulat5921]

Variety is the spice of life. Thanks for the video Michelle.

[@paulat5921]

Great sweater Michelle.

[@conniepeereboom8640]

Super cute! Looks so nice on you 😊

[@annemotha4534]

I loves the colours on the sweater. Fall vibes🧶🍂🍁

[@happyhedgewytch4573]

Supper cute sweater! Love it!

[@PaigeFrances97]

I loved it as a Tshirt! 6:17

[@meganberk6072]

This is such a cute idea! I have a favorite kind of caked cotton, I wonder if that would work for something like this (I don’t like wearing 100% polyester or acrylic). Also the cat struggle is so real. Mine is sitting on me know trying to eat my stitch marker!

[@BlackDaisy23]

This short sleeve shirt looks so good on you! I tried this yarn and it kept breaking on me so i hated it for months. Now after seeing your video, i want to try working with it again. My brain keeps picturing you in a pair of matching shorts that go just above your knees🤔👀

[@CozyMamaPlayz]

34❣️ 😍🤗 same age group here. I love your videos so much. Slowly binging them all. Just finished up your bandana (pink floral) tutorial. Just need to connect them all. 🙂

[@tinalin7180]

Ur ready for the spring 🌸

[@ShettikkaWoods-jl8iq]

Good morning 🌄🌞 blessings 🌻 ☕... great 👍🏾 job 👏🏾

[@faithdockendorff4747]

Awww…you’re welcome! The second I saw it I knew it was the yarn for you. I’ve made a sweater for myself out of the Caron Cloud cakes “Sandbar”, and one for my daughter out of the “kelp”. Both looked great! A couple of suggestions about the neck: do you go down a hook size to do the ribbing? If you don’t, that works great to cinch it in just enough. Alternately, it could be your pattern. I used crafted.by.cat ‘s crescendo sweater pattern and the neck fits nicely . I didn’t, obviously, use her striping pattern, but rather let the cloud cakes do its magic. The sweater looks and fits great and I know how soft it is! 🇨🇦

[@michelle_jasek]

The yarn was so fun to crochet with! I’m really glad you suggested it! 😊

[@craftydgtr]

Love the project. However, would love to see a full picture of the quilt you had on your lap. I had one with the same material when I was in college.

[@FriendlyFibers]

I loved your tshirt sweater it came out so pretty!!! I love that yarn so much but my Michael’s never has any :( I should probably order some…I made a scarf/shawl and didn’t even think of a tshirt !!! I’m doing it now!!!! Love love your videos!!!

[@adelacoburn1396]

Cuuuute 🧡

[@Lady_dromeda]

I used a carron cloud cake to make a small blanket last year 😅 so soft, never thought about making a sweater with it though. I don’t think I would, I prefer either smooth yarns or Briggs & Little wools

[@gratefulgato2653]

Love it

[@whocare9942]

I recently was also possessed by a singular project and was banged out a 6 foot round blanket in 6 weeks despite having other projects and chores I wanted to do. The crochet does be like that.

[@brendaferguson1192]

It’s so you!

[@raffyoli]

ayo notification squad 😎

[@HeyItsTra]

That is totally cute!!!! And ONE SKEIN?!?! WOT?!?! What size top do you wear again, Michelle? I think I'm gonna have to go get in the car right now and zoom down to Michaels.....

[@michelle_jasek]

I wear a medium/ large. I like the fit to be a little oversized

[@no1pinkjellybean]

use steam on the neck. it will ease in the shape you want, just don't burn your fingers

[@theattemptedhomemaker]

34!? There’s no way 😂 please tell me your secret

[@SpacyMidnight]

The secret is not having a useless husband and feral kids. This is 34. 34 looks like anything with life experience 🖤🏴‍☠️☕️👻 Happy for you Michelle 💚🌱
