Let me stop you right at the beginning for a minute. You designed and drafted a crochet pattern by yourself without the help of outside sources. That is what designers do and you should be proud of that. There is no need to apologize that you didn't do it "correctly" because you have the finished product and it fits wonderfully on you. That is what matters!

[@andromedasgalaxy2611]

Just finished this pattern and it turned out great! It's super cozy and chunky and overall super pretty...Just a heads up for people choosing to pursue this project; ---- 1. Buy about 8-9 Skeins of yarn if using size 6 yarn; I had to go back to Hobby Lobby a few times to finish this project because I kept running out of yarn. In the end, I used about 8.5 skeins. (I should also mention that I did this project in all one color [blush pink, if anyone was wondering], so I don't know how many skeins-per-color one would need if doing this sweater like the one in the video). 2. Use loose stitches; I actually had to redo an arm towards the beginning because I had made it waaaaaay to tight and it would barely move. I would recommend gently tugging at each crochet with your hook before finishing it with the last yarn over...this will make your stitches looser and more fluffy! 3. Keep measuring your piece against your body! Throughout the whole project, I tried on the sleeves and roughly held the pieces up to my body to make sure that it fell where I wanted and I made adjustments as needed. 4. Find and read Alesha Toora's comment in this section! They gave great measurement recommendations and tips for creating a proportional project. 5. Don't be afraid to unravel!!! I redid multiple sections of this project from the bottom up because I realized that they were too big/small/tight etc. It's much better to redo and get a better end result than finish and have regrets over what you did. (Besides, if you do have to remake anything, it presents a super great opportunity for binge-watching a show while you're at it. I worked my way through the first few seasons of Supernatural while making this!) ---- This was an amazing pattern and (as a semi-beginner crochet-er, at a couple months) it was easy to follow and gave amazing results. I'm excited to see more from this channel as time goes on :)

[@auggie_on_paws]

Young lady, be proud of what you have accomplished. I have been crocheting for 50+ years and I have never created a single decent piece of clothing without a pattern. I have been trying to make a particular sweater but haven't been able to find a pattern that I liked for it nor have I the courage to make one of my own. Your video has encouraged me to try to design one myself. Thank you so much for getting this old woman off her rear end and out of her comfort zone. Keep up the great work! Also, I wanted to let you know you can use multiple strands of a yarn at the same time to get the thick yarn look. You don't have to wait for Michael's.

[@mackenzijohnston7163]

Hi all! So I just finished making this sweater as a Christmas gift. I sized it up to a mens large. What a project! It came out amazing. One tip I have for you wonderful people is when doing the button band, make the first row closer to the edge of the front panel than you think. I left a solid 1/4” of space and now that little bit of front panel wants to stick out from under the button band. Also - try to keep your tension very consistent while doing the sleeves! My sleeves had quite a difference in puffiness since I crocheted one a lot tighter than the other… oops! Overall, this is an amazing video and I love the fact that you left the mistakes in so I could learn from them. One comment I have is that I wish there was a little more instruction on how to attach the bottom ribbing to the sweater - I kind of had to guess and I think I messed it up a little. I didn’t understand whether the decreased stitches were on the ribbing band or on the sweater. I did the decreased stitches on the ribbing band and it came out a little weird! But barely noticeable! (I also did this because I wanted my sweater to have that cinched look). Anyway, thanks for your instruction!

If you guys ended up deciding to use the exact same yarn (as I did), I’d recommend getting one extra skein of lavender yarn. The pink yarn kirrilalia uses is also “think pink” from loops and threads’ charisma line, not the pink from the lush alpaca line.

[@gretaramirez692]

Is the think pink same size as the other ones? :)

[@Solarpower345]

@@gretaramirez692 it’s a size 5 and the others are a 6 but you won’t be able to tell the difference. After completing the cardigan I’d say to find a different brand of yarn though. The colors are nice but the quality of the yarn is terrible especially for the price. The alpaca fibers are super short so the cardigan has shed out all of the fibers like a dog blowing out its coat in the summer. Whatever you wear gets covered in alpaca. The yarn is also not as soft as it feels before being crocheted/ knitted.

[@theoctoberfarm]

This is awesome and everything looks so amazing! I’m ok with you making a super chunk one too. :) the only thing with that is, make sure you DO NOT USE ROVING. Chunky spun yarn is way better. I forgot the name of the channel but they made a video on why you should not use roving, especially on a sweater. Or a blanket. Within one day of wearing it your sweater will be torn up, shredding and will be super dirty. If you don’t know what roving is, it is yarn that is not spun yet. And since it isn’t spun it doesn’t have the structure that yarn does, making it basically impossible to use. It does look good for photos and for a while, but overall it’s not worth it. Roving is very expensive and it doesn’t even end up working. Sorry if you already know this, I just wanted to make sure you didn’t make any big mistakes! 🥲🥲

Yep 100% this! Using just roving (i.e. yarn before it's twisted) is a disaster as it has no structural integrity and will just fall apart over time. Pinterest and Instagram pics of extra chunky blankets etc look lovely, but they won't last at all (and ultimately you've spent like 300 pounds on what becomes essentially a huge lint ball :( ) Alternatively you could also spin your own bulky wool yarn or hold multiple yarns together to get a similar look

I just finished crocheting this after 10 days! I'm proud of the result but I also did a lot of changes during the process. I started doing the sleeves and then end up frogging them cause they were too small. I used 8 skeins in total, but I did it cropped so I recommend using 10 to get the result like in the tutorial. I really stressed myself out with this one cause everything came out smaller than I planed. But overall I think the end result looks pretty cute. Could've been a bit longer,cause it ends above my waist so is like really cropped but I kinda like it. Just a tip: make the sleeves at the end so yo make sure they are the right size when you atach them to the rest. Or better, I started them directly onto the rest so I didn't have to sew everything together. Looks more neat. Thank you for the tutorial! It is great

[@delficavallo5161]

Oh I also crocheted the waist and buttone band directly into the piece. And for the v-neck I decreased every other row I think starting at my chest. Try using a bigger crochet hook than what is recommended for your type of yarn cause this stitch turns out very tight. Keep your stitches loose. I used a 9mm hook and the yarn was pretty much the same as the tutorial and I think it would've been better to use a 10mm hook

[@nessbailey7931]

I am also crocheting a cardigan based on a picture of a knit cardigan for a friend 😅 The one I am doing has smaller stitches and knits and purls, so I’m using bpdc and fpdc. I’m planning a sweater vest using the waistcoat/knit stitch so seeing how to do it when you turn you work was very helpful. Also for your bottom ribbing, the way I would do it if I didn’t want a cinch is to connect the new color to the bottom of the sweater after it was all sewn together at the corner of one of the front panels, then chained however many you wanted, 5 let’s say, chain up one, slip stitch back down, slip stitch in two stitches of the sweater panel, then back up and down all the way around. If I did want it cinched I would just do more slip stitches into the panel where you connect the ribbing as you go, like 4 if I wanted it to end up being cinched to half the original width of the sweater. This method means less sewing, and it’s easier to get the cinched look without so much hassel. And if you’re using the same color ridding as panel you don’t have to fasten off so it’s less ends to tie in. (This is what I do when I make socks!) I hope this explanation made sense, great video!
