I’ve been looking for a cardigan tutorial to try, and no matter how hard I looked, I couldn’t find any that made sense to me. I didn’t understand their stitches and patterns, especially the “post” crochets.

Thanks so much, can’t wait to try this!

Just a heads up for anyone who wears the size L, this cardigan was clearly made to fit “oversized style” on a size S at least.. it would be great if the creator would add the measurements of the finished product in the description! Or at least what size she wore, so we don’t waste time and yarn..

I doubt you’ll see my comment but how did you make both front panels? I believe you made two and showed how to make the first one but how did you go back to make the second? Did you use new yarn, slip stitch down? Idk if this makes since but could you pls help? Thx though for the tutorial

[@fariahuq6717]

same question did you ever figure it out because 😭😭😭

[@mlorleans]

Thank you for this. Two questions: 1 - you state it is 75 stitches wide and then you marked in 37 from each side. 37+37 = 74, but you more than one stitch between your markers. Could you please advise how many stitches you left in the center for the neck? 2 - could you please provide the approx measurements of the final sweater? (Back width, Back length, front panel width, sleeve width, sleeve length) That would really, really help me figure out what size to make. Thank you!

Thank you so much!! That’s so sweet of you 🤍

[@juliannaskill4153]

I had issues with tension when switching between hdc rows and hdc spacing rows… my back panel looks all wavy since the spacing rows were more tense then the normal hdc rows… I’ll have to restart and use a bigger hook size with the spacing rows I guess🤷‍♀️. I also really wish you would have mentioned that the stitches increase each time you start the hdc spacing rows. I made sure to keep 75 stitches all the way up which resulted in me not having enough stitches when it came time to make the front panels.

[@gracierose0728]

This looks so good. If it’s 75 stitches though and you mark 37 down from either side, that’s the tiniest bit in the middle is it not? And did they increase the amount of stitches in the back panel so it started as 75 and got more orrrr - sorry I’m stupid and struggling a little

[@breeochebunz]

Making this comment as constructive criticism and my experience working the cardigan, no hate!! For reference: I'm an intermediate crocheter, so this pattern felt semi-beginner friendly. I used 3 Caron Cakes skeins and needed a little extra yarn to finish this cardi. Mine came out a bit "chunkier" and "rigid" so maybe if I had used the yarn she had, it would feel "lighter" and "looser"? Making the panels was super easy, although I did have to adjust the pattern cause I noticed my stitch count was increasing each time I finished the chain space portions, so I just did one decrease when I began a new row of the "solid row". I do appreciate the modeling in the beginning of the video of how the cardi looks on her as well as the back of it (since sometimes that gets forgotten to film)! There is a comment on here that said it's not oversized fitting if you're larger than a small size, which I think would be helpful to mention in the video. Overall, making this cardi with the alternating "blocks" was a nice change of pace for me so that there was some variety for me to work up! Thanks for the free pattern tutorial and hope you have a great day!!

Just wanted to ask you, how many stitches did you leave in the middle - for the neck space, when you started the front pannel and also how many stitches did you end up chaining at the very begining? I adjusted the number of chains to my body, but it will help me figure out how many should I leave for the neck space :)

[@JulianDN]

I decided to watch the whole video before starting the project and it looks like a very helpful tutorial. I have one question, when you say you only need to "seam off the sides" how is that done?

[@_Victoria_1]

Usually pieces are connected by lining up edges and using a ‘mattress stitch’ to connect each stitch all the way down. Just look up a video for step by step. 🍀

[@JulianDN]

@@_Victoria_1 thank you very much Vicki

[@itserinb]

Hi there!! When I seam off panels I pretty much lay both panels together and line up the edges, then I attach yarn to a large needle and just sew the two panels down the edge. You can also line up the panels and single crochet the two pieces together!!

The easiest way to do it at least for me chain 75 and if it's too small keep adding 10 more chains I did 85 for medium it's slightly oversized but not as oversized as I would have liked but it still feels nice and it's not strangling your arms

[@judydennis4381]

QUESTION!!! DO YOU USE THE SAME EDGING ON THE CARDIGAN OPENING AND BOTTOM AS YOU DID ON THE SLEEVE? AND WHEN YOU DO THE 2ND FRONT PANEL IS THERE A RIGHT AND WRONG SIDE FOR WHEN YOU ATTACH THE YARN? I did this sweater with a stiffer yarn (I was newish to crochet at the time) and it didn’t come out good. When I didn’t see how to finish of the edges of the cardigan, I took the whole thing out. I assume you put the same ribbing on the cardigan opening and bottom that you used on the sleeve. Is that correct? I will remake this in a softer yarn.

[@patriciadesamours258]

[@eleanorsharp1349]

In the beginning, you went through just the back part of a stitch(I think that’s what it’s called), but then it looked like you went through both parts of the V shape later in the video, so I’m wondering if you just kept going through the back part of the V or changed(even though you would probably tell us)

[@itserinb]

Hi!! Sorry it’s taken so long to respond - I am a women’s small and the cardigan ended up being extremely oversized. I would say that it fits a women’s large, but if you want it to be oversized then add a few more inches to your chain when you first begin chaining!

For the second row of spacing stitches, is it do two double crochets at the start of each row afterwards, or was it just for starting the second row?

[@itserinb]

Sorry it wasn’t clear, it’s every other row of the spacing! So start the spacing row 1 with hdc and then chain one skip one, for the 2nd row make 2 hdc in a row and then chain one skip one. For the third row alternate back to just one hdc, chain one skip one, and for the 4th row alternate back to 2 hdc in a row!

None of this adds up. The panels widen out and arent level. The neck hole spacing doesnt add up.

Also it states to use a 5.5mm hook, but isn't that a 5 she is using??

I love this cardigan! I wanted to ask if it was possible to keep the whole cardigan one pattern? I have tried to do the alternating pattern like you did, but I mess up every time.

[@KnitsByNayla]

I’m sure you could stick to the regular half double crochet for the whole pattern. Just skip the chain 1 skip a stitch. For the body she had six panels of 11 rows. So that would just be 66 rows of regular half double crochet. Then another 66 for each half of the front panels. And 44 rows of hdc for each sleeve panel.

@@KnitsByNayla Thank you so much! That really helps!

Hi I love this so much omg! I get really cold very easily, so you think I could just skip out the gap rows and do it all half double or would that make it too weighty/affect the pattern? X

[@noelyoung5523]

hii!! oi um i tried doing the one with spaces but i’m left with an extra stitch at the end. i chained 87 since my body is a bit bigger, and i followed the directions but i’m still left with an open stitch. please help!

I know this was over a year ago but what size yarn did you use and do you think it would be ok to use red heart ombré?

[@madiha1060]

Hey, would it be ok if i used a 5mm hook instead of 5.5mm?

[@user-oj5zn7jt5h]

what did you do for the trimming on the front panel

[@missmegan92]

Also interested to know how you finished off with the trim of the cardigan around the raw edges. Thanks

This looks like it would be lovely but I wish we could see it modeled in the normal way. I have no idea how it actually looks just being worn as a cardigan.

I love this cardigan and have started to crochet it but when I get to row 13, I follow the instructions and my crocheting starts to pucker up. I asked a friend to look at it and she found the same. Have you got any advice as to how I can stop this from happening?

[@juliannaskill4153]

Mine kept getting waves in the half double crochet rows too! I also didn’t realize the stitches would increase as you did the hdc spacing rows so I ended up with the wrong amount of stitches when it came to making the front panels… go figure! I assume the wavy tension issue can be resolved with switching to a bigger hook when doing the hdc spacing rows since those seem smaller!

can i ask can i use milk cotton yarn on making this?

[@axyzxxx3352]

How did you connect the arms to the body?? I’m lost at that part. Did you just slip stitch it?

[@missmegan92]

I used the mattress Stitch for attaching my sleeves, hope this helps

[@donicea3997]

on the back panel it’s starting to look as if i’ve been decreasing/ it’s starting to look triangle shaped. I’m on row 38, is this normal?

How did you do the border around d the neck a d front pa els

[@emilybooth6570]

How many chains do you think I should do for the back panel and the sleeves if I wanted to make a medium?

[@itserinb]

To be honest the cardigan is very oversized on me, (I’m a small roughly) so I don’t think you’d have to change the pattern at all and it would still be oversized on a medium fit!
