How to Crochet Tutorial: DIY the G G Gorgeous Gal Cardigan by YARNutopia

[@kskc1234]

I just want to say how much I enjoyed this video .I watched the whole two hours straight through. You are a great instructor. So clear, no rushing through the instructions, the camera angles and the lighting was great. It's truly the best tutorial on crocheting a sweater than I've ever seen and believe me, I watched a lot of Harry Styles lately on how to crochet his sweater. Thank you for sharing this with all of us.

[@pinksbrown117]

Hi NadiaI'm too excited to tell you that DID IT!. I followed your step-by-step thorough instructions and I made this cardigan. It is a little too big, but otherwise it is flawless. You guided the entire way. I'd like to whole heartedly thank you. Your creativity is endlessGod Bless you and your family !!

[@catgriffin1627]

YAY -- I JUST FINISHED (I have 2 businesses so that's why I had to squeeze in my crochet therapy time. I will post pictures of mine ASAP -- I used 60% cotton / 40% acrylic, size 3 yarn, size 4mm hook -- otherwise my stitches were too sloppy with this 3-weight yarn -- due to being in California, I didn't want it to be too heavy. They sell these sweater/coats at Neiman Marcus and Bloomingdales retail price = $895 on up!!! THANK YOU, NADIA -- COULD HAVE NEVER DONE THIS WITHOUT YOU AND YOUR DAD!!!!!!

[@sherri3983]

I love your detailed instructions. In the early 1970’s my mom crocheted for me a granny square vest, reminiscent of your piece. Fashions DO repeat themselves. I’m definitely going to make this. Thanks for sharing!

[@catgriffin1627]

I'm at this GORGEOUS pattern again -- making a spring sweater and going to make your exact colors but in Bernat Softee Cotton/Acrylic yarn -- will post photos when I'm done. I just have to THANK YOU AND YOUR DAD AGAIN FOR YOUR AWESOME VIDEOS -- REALLY APPRECIATE YOU BOTH, GREAT INSTRUCTOR AND GREAT PICTURES MAKE THIS SO WORTH INVESTING THE TIME TO DO!!!

[@sheenyg2878]

I have never crocheted before but with your detailed instructions I managed to actually make this beautiful cardigan. Thank you so very much ❤❤❤. PS: I did of course have to learn the basic stitches first😄

[@janismadigan6178]

Your video is very helpful! You do an excellent job explaining everything. Your dad does an excellent job with the videography, the angles, the lighting and the volume. Thank you both very much!

[@teachermary2889]

Hi Nadia. it´s been exactly a year since you were teaching how to do this amazing coat.. thank you very much! first of all the colours are perfect, second the explanations are easy... I ´ve learned a lot more than to do this coat, simple details.. I love it. I´m sure Im going to buy some yarn.. and do it.. Have a great day. María from Barcelona.

[@faithh9182]

Just spectacular!! You made this so easy for someone who can barely read a pattern. I'm amazed and my friends think it is one of the most beautiful things they have seen. Thank you so much. You are an excellent teacher!!! please keep doing these.

[@catgriffin1627]

YOU are ABSOLUTELY AWESOME!!! I've made some of your hats before, which were also really AMAZING and AWESOME. I am so thankful for you, your ease of instructions and that you allow us to copy your patterns for free. I am on a really fixed income, so your graciousness in supplying the tutorials for free is so helpful and really, really appreciated. I also really appreciate your Dad -- he is an AWESOME videographer, captures everything you're doing so clearly and your detailed instructions and illustrations are well seen. I cannot wait to finish this and show you my finished product. I do not do Facebook, but will post on Instagram and give you all the credit for such a JOB WELL DONE!!!

[@alonsitus1]

Your time, your patience, your effort is highly appreciated!!! i m so glad to understand all your indications!!!

[@kimberlytia]

I am soo SOOOO inspired! my mom bought me a old afghan goodwill crochet blanket, and I want to use your pattern to "upcycle" this blanket into a fantastic cardigan to melt in California in. !!!!!!

[@joelitamarsh9937]

I have made two, one for my daughter and one for me. The first one came out good and my daughter was excited and pleased. The second one was even better. So easy to do all you need is the time.

[@cherylboyd5548]

Oh wow I finally Made this sweater after all these years I had it Saved in my history so I finished it yesterday.

[@ingka]

This is soo amazing!! Can't wait to make it myself!! You really are a great teacher Nadia!

[@kellywegener7583]

Just finished this cardigan. It was really fun to make and I could NOT have done it without your excellent teaching. Your videos are very clear and well done! I am going to figure out how to send you pictures of my finished cardigan.

[@s.miller3111]

Thank you SERIOUSLY SO MUCH for this fabulous cardigan pattern!!! I am making this again. I started, lost weight and it didn't fit, but I never got to finish it. This time... I am all set!!! I took my measurements of another cardigan I have... And it's the exact same inches so I am BEYOND ECSTATIC!!! YOU ARE TRULY APPRECIATED!!! THANK YOU FOR SHARING YOUR KNOWLEDGE (UNSELFISHLY) WITH US. I HAVE BEEN A SUBSCRIBER FOR YEARS 🤗🤗🤗

[@kinyunjarmon8575]

I am a beginner at crocheting and I have found your video to be extremely valuable. Thank You!

[@lovirn]

Thank you for your time and for those involved. I have just started crocheting this pattern and it looks amazing. I am looking forward in wearing this lovely cardigan in the spring. Thanks x

[@conservativetothecor]

ok...started on the squares randomly have a bunch finished. Ended up with shades of green and black. Loving the colors. From what I see I need 60 squares in all, apart from that gorgeous matching scarf. Thank you so much for this tutorial. It was very well made.

[@medawson01]

Thank you so much for sharing this pattern. I saw Gigi Hadid wear this cardigan, and I had to have it. Then I found your pattern! I bought my yarn at Joann's and with my coupons the cost was $29.86. I started crocheting this cardigan on August 30, 2018. Two days later I had made nine granny squares. I plan to finish my cardigan before the end of September. I'll post a picture of the finished cardigan on your Facebook page. Thanks for your generosity.

[@annsivitter6130]

Hello, I have made my jacket using various shades of blue and loads of people have said how nice it is. I made a scarf from the square and put pockets on it, together with a hat. Thank you so much really understood your video well and great explanations. I am fairly new to crochet and this is the first garment I have made.

[@patricia92949]

Nadia, you have done it again. This granny cardigan is so beautiful. I am looking forward to making it! blessings

[@camilleb4991]

Hi Nadia and Fuad. First off, I hope all is well with your son. Second, I thank you so much for this tutorial. I’m sewing my pieces together and hope to complete the collar and cuffs in a day or so. When I first came across this pattern I would’ve never guessed that I could and will be finishing this beautiful cardigan, as a gift to an obviously cherished friend. Thank you again.

[@atlantamoody]

I'm making my first cardigan thanks to you I used a 5.5 hook but I'm a big girl so I used extra squares to make my sizes and for my arms I'm going to single crochet down a few rolls can't wait to move on to another one of your projects

[@anac472]

Hi Nadia, I have a just finished my cardigan and followed your instructions to the tee, at times watching the video a few times to make sure I get it, and the cardigan came out perfect. I figured I was your size and used the 5MM to make mine. It fits perfect. I just want to thank you for your patience, perfect instructions, and for making and sharing this wonderful tutorial. I never thought I could make something like this, but I did. Thank you to you and your Dad. I wish I can send you pics of it but not sure how to post pics of it. I so feel a sense of accomplishment. Thank you and many many blessings to you. ❤🙏🏼🌹

Hi from Uk ...can anyone guide me for amount of yarn for squares to buy ..Thank you

[@vickiappleton1483]

So beautiful. Your skills are phenomenal. Thank you so much for sharing your creations. Please tell your Dad thank you so much for taking the time to film this. 😍

[@phili.m78]

Thank you for sharing.. Just finished the cardigan for a customer.. 76 different squares, all joined with a flat slipstich, no collar, straight cuffs 🤩

[@carmenstef8583]

I love your way to explain. Would be possible to tell us another yarn brand suitable for this pattern ? thank you!

[@Bayouma777]

Hi Nadia & Fuad, I used your video to make my version of the GG Cardigan! I must say it's turned out really nice! All I have left to do is to add the button holes and buttons! I will go to your FB page and post a picture when it's all done! I've always wanted to make this for myself, but this one is a gift for a friend. She really likes colors so I made this one for her with jewel toned squares with a black base; also I only used 'regular' granny squares. I think it turned out great, for my first try! Thanks for your videos and explaining everything so well! I have a few more projects (gifts) to make the now through February, but I'm looking forward to making a GG cardigan for myself soon! Thanks, again! 🥰

[@traceymitchell5795]

Nadia you are the best teacher ever l made this for my niece she loves it

[@leahsantos746]

I am beyond excited!!! I am new to the crochet world and it's videos like yours with great instructions that gives me hope that I can make this also.... I am done all the squares and have the back sewn together and I really like the outcome... I didn't use the colors you chose, I am using solid color Granny's 15 different colors of the rainbow with white trim... It's gonna look amazing!! It already is looking great... Hopefully I can post a picture when I'm done.. thanks for the clear instructions your work is beautiful!!!!

[@basemaalmouallem4626]

شكرا جزيلا عزيزتي ناديا على الشرح المفصل والعمل المتقن وانا من المعجبين بأعمالك اتمنى لك التوفيق والنجاح

[@michellefryar518]

I am doing a queen size blanket for a friend, she basically had the same colors, so I'm loving this pattern, thank you

[@vatamanmihaela8643]

You are absolutely AMAZING ! You are so easy to follow, your voice is calm. I just love your videos. Thank you.

[@pamelac.carter3071]

Hi Nadia, I have seen crochet square coats and jackets before but was never interested in them too much. But, this one is so nice! The black gives it a versatile look. Love your videos and the projects you offer. Nice delivery too.

[@doincaKELLER]

Thank you for this beautiful pattern. I'm almost finished very tedious but beautiful

[@laurelgirard8475]

When I make a project, whether it’s a sweater or scarf, I usually try to make one or two granny’s from it when I’m done. I like to save those either as a beginning cardigan or blanket, or, if I have enough, a complete cardigan. It’s always so wonderful to mix and match match them. This is lovely. I may break out and try the this granny, but I think I’d like a Country blue background. Thanks Fuad!!

[@rhaven50]

Thank you. This square is the groovy I was looking for. I'm new to crochet. It is frig'n addictive 😂

[@annettejohnson5425]

Beautiful ! Looks like alot of work!, I got asked by my cousin on one of these, and I checked on price for one, and she's glad i checked on it, i explained all the time, color change , weavining ends, sewing, knowledge and skill and time she understands why its that much . BUT it makes me want to make one for my mom or myself

[@lorriv9763]

Fab tutorial. I might have a look to see if it would be easy to add a hood? Thank you to you and your Dad for the video. Much appreciated. From the UK

[@kelliewashington04]

Hi, I love this piece! I am 6'0 and plus size. I have read the written pattern and will make more rounds to the black border but will that really make it wider and longer? Please advise how I can tailor this to my size,

[@yayalino175]

I am definitely going to make a cardigan like this. I'll make sure I show you what it looks like when I'm done. I am thrilled about my first big crochet project! Thank you so much for your time. I'll keep you posted on FB

[@aydiemouulugun5595]

Nadia, you are an absolute genius, your tutorials are fantastic and always so through. Many thanks from the Uk keep up the brilliant work xxxxxx

[@judith1564]

Thank you Nadia - your tutorial is well done - easy and fun to follow. It's years since I made granny squares, but I now know what I'm going to with a stash of yarn I have. Cheers from UK

[@pamkay1756]

What a masterpiece. Thanks for sharing, Nadia.

[@sandybunn5806]

Thank you so much for this tutorial. You are such a good "teacher". I have just completed my cardigan/jacket and it looks absolutely lovely! It is a bit big, but I can live with it. I didn't use your granny square pattern, I used my simple granny square pattern, which looks just as nice. I made the cuffs of the sleevs tighter; the slits not as high and I tacked the collar down all the way. Just need to put buttons on and I will post a photograph. Thank you again, and please thank your Dad too.

[@rockytoronto]

I made this cardigan about 3 years ago ..in the exact same colors but it was too long for me…I’m only 5ft 3in..I’m going to make three more and gift to my sisters but this time I will make sure the length is not too long..thank you for this very beautiful pattern ❤

[@mrschez21]

Omg! Now I have to go get yarn! This is a fabulous tutorial! Thank you for sharing this. I’m going to try to make this beautiful cardigan! ❤️

[@leahgallyot]

Thank you so much for taking the time to actually show us how to make this . I followed your instructions to the tee but the coat is too big for me .. lol ..

Thank you for letting me know how to put together all of my granny squares and how many granny squares that I have to crochet to make out this is Cardigan

[@TreNuvole]

Hello Nadia...I love this Cardigan! I was wondering what size this is in the video, as in S M or L. I may have missed it if you spoke about it. I did hear you talk about sizing with a needle change or adding more squares. Your reply would be most appreciated and thanks for all the great projects and sharing! ;)

[@eveyjones5]

As Salamu Alaikum Nadia. You have stunning style and I absolutely love love love the tutorials you have shared and can not keep up with attempting to make everything (homeschooling mom). I thank you tremendously for sharing your talent and art and as if you have not shared enough already, I have a request. Can you explain or share a tutorial on how you wrap and tie your head scarf and what kind of scarf you use? Once again, your contributions to crochet are fabulous. Much gratitude

Thank you so much for this beautiful cardigan….question, as long as my squares measure the gauge, I can use any square for this, exact, not the particular squares you did, I.e., granny or Tunisian? Thx again so much!
