First baby tutorial i can actually understand. THANK YOU!! 🎉

You’re welcome 😊

[@girlgonewisej]

I just finished making this cardigan last night, my 16 month old daughter looks so beautiful in it. I decided to use a zipper instead of buttons. I love it! Its so stretchy I think it will still fit her next fall and begining of winter ☺️

[@deek6913]

Can you tell what size hook you used? Or differences you made? I want to make one for 18 months.

[@girlgonewisej]

@@deek6913 I used 4.5 mm. I kept fitting it on her as I crochet along to see if it fit coz she’s a bit thin and tall so now at 23 months she still fits into 18 months clothing very well.

[@deek6913]

@@girlgonewisej oh ok. Thanks for the reply.

This was my first crochet clothing item (other than beanies) and your tutorial was easy to follow. Instead of buttons, I added a zipper and it looks great with your pattern. Thank you!

[@amymaschue3348]

This sweater turned out THE CUTEST EVER!!! Did a 2 row stitch decrease in the last two rows of the sleeve, to make them more fitted around the wrist. That was the only adjustment. Used a 4mm hook and 4 worsted weight yarn. My sweater came out to look about size 9-12 months. I followed all directions for sweater.

Thats great 😀🫶

Love the clear instructions! I’ve done 5 rows, would I be able to continue doing full loops from here on, meaning not going in back loops to make it a straighter surface?

[@LuzDeMariposita]

Great! Thank you so much for the quick reply:-)

[@roseserrano5757]

The only part I’m unsure is after yoke and starting row 2 of body is the first stitch under both stitches then back stitch only . It looks that way or is entire sweater done in back stitch only ty .

[@CrochetForBaby]

Yes. The first st is through one loop in the video but I recommend you go through both loops for both first and last st instead. Either way it will work out.

Such a wonderful pattern!! I'm making a Christmasy cardigan with it now for my 2.5 yo, and really enjoying the clarity of both the video and the written pattern, which I bought on Etsy!! Thank you! Question - do you think I could crochet a rimming (say, chain 10 and work right-side, wrong-side ScBlo towards and away from the bottom) instead of the front-post back-post stitch (which I'm keen to learn, but have no experience with)? Thank you so much for your beautiful patterns, and a happy Christmas!
