Olga, you’ve convinced me to make the cardigan… You are the best tutor ever!

[@OlgaPoltava]

Great! Go for it! 👍🏻 And thank you so much for your kind words! 🙏🏻🤗

[@yolandahernandez-madsen4657]

This is the best sweater video I have seen. Your instructions are excellent and clear. I have been crocheting for over 50 years.Thank you Olga.

[@OlgaPoltava]

Hi Yolanda, I"m so glad you like it! Oftentimes crochet garments require lots of detailed work (increases and decreases, sewing the details together, etc), so I really wanted to create a pattern that would be easy to execute, yet provide a good fit. I really like how this cardigan turned out, and I'm so glad others like it too! Thank you for your comment!

[@Whistlebritches1]

My go to pattern for a cardigan, so thank you again 😊. I hope things turn around for you on KZbin. You do not deserve the BS with the other channel. I absolutely love your tutorials. So thank you for all the work you put into any and all video tutorial. You are great!!!

[@Klaproossje]

I'm with everyone else!! This is an absolute pleasure making, because you explained it very well! Can’t wait until its finished😊

[@cynthialondon6640]

I have tried my hand at several crocheted cardigans, but this one is by far my favorite. I never feel like I can't complete my project, I just can't wait to see the finished product. Olga, you are an excellent instructor that inspired me to do more of your patterns. Thank You!

[@bonniekonjevich7574]

It is so versatile. I could stop at the third pink band from the neck and have a perfect fit/composition. Love it!

Hello Olga, hope all is well? Thank you for sharing this video and step by step on crocheting a cardigan. I am going to give this a try. Thank you for the size description as I need this being a large lady. Love the idea of being able to crochet the cardigan shoulders the way you showed in video. Thank you.

[@OlgaPoltava]

Hi Karen, you are very welcome! I'm so glad you like this cardigan and going to make it! I tried to design it in a very simple way because oftentimes crocheters are intimidated by advanced/complicated patterns. Despite its simplicity, it turned out pretty well! Thank you so much for your comment! Happy crocheting!

[@tammygurke7482]

Just purchased your pattern off of Etsy. I can’t wait to try those. I love Caron big cakes yarn. I have a bunch of it so this is perfect. And I love the way it feels.

Thank you Debbie 😊💗

[@robyndavis7159]

I love this pattern and look forward to make it for my daughter! I am wondering, however, what measurement is used to begin with…how do you get the measurement of 60 for the 3x/4x?

[@OlgaPoltava]

Hi Robyn, since I'm making the cardigan from bottom up, it is based on hip measurement.

[@annbashir5888]

It's lovely

[@adeliamilheiro2187]

Beautiful thank you

[@gerryp23]

Hi Olga, i just found your pattern and love the no sewing idea. I love the simplicity of your pattern. i have my yarn and i'm ready to start. If the full circumference of my hips is 44inches is that the length of the chain i should make and just adjust the rest of the pattern accordingly?

[@OlgaPoltava]

Hi Geraldine, thank you! Yes, start with the chain 44 inches long.

[@gerryp23]

@@OlgaPoltava Thanks Olga, I appreciate your help.

Wery nice...i love it 😊thanks for saying it in cm to...😊

[@OlgaPoltava]

You are very welcome! Here in the US, we use inches, but I know the rest of the world uses cm, so it makes sense to include the cm measurements as well. Thank you for your comment and Happy New Year!

[@bushraameshall]

Thank you ❤

Can you make this longer? I love this style but I'd love it to come down roughly to my knees

Yes, absolutely, simply make it longer before separating into three parts!

[@TigerMoran]

@@OlgaPoltava I finished my cardigan recently! I used Hobbii Metallico in Moss Agate and its come out absolutely stunning! Its needs a wash and a block but its so pretty. Thank you for this tutorial! My next challenge is making a longer version with the Dream Colour and a smaller hook!

[@mrsdizi1234]

I have a question if you follow all measurments for the small and do 8" on each side the middle piece is too small to split in 3 to form arm hole what could be the problem thank you

[@tricialinden]

Thanks!

[@belindakotze8027]

Hi Olga. How are you. I just wanted to find out for a 4xl how many chains do I need please.

[@anupamaprasad5094]

Hello! Can I use any stich with the way you had made ur cardigan? Pls reply

[@OlgaPoltava]

Yes, most simple stitches would work. But if you use some complicated stitches, you might have trouble when dividing the piece into three parts (for the sleeves) and also when making decreases on the sleeves.

[@anupamaprasad5094]

@@OlgaPoltava how about single crochet? Thx for replying🙏💕

Hi! Yes, feel free to do that! Thank you for asking!

[@CrochetJewel]

@@OlgaPoltava ok thank you 😊

[@laurelgirard8475]

Olga, love your new cozy looking cardi. What hook are you using? I would like to try the longer hooks but can never find them. I did find the longer ergonomic bamboo hooks. I really like those. Maybe you can recommend a comfy hook? I have severe arthritis and after ten years of avoiding all things crochet, I jumped back into it wholeheartedly. It actually has helped to keep my hands active. I crochet a lot, though, since I’m home on disability. The main problem is hand fatigue and hand/wrist pain. I know that I can’t get rid of it completely, but I just wondered what was the best hook for hand pain, etc., that you’ve tried?

[@OlgaPoltava]

Hi Laurel, I'm sorry to hear you struggle with severe arthritis. I don't use any special hooks, I have a set of Boye aluminum hooks, and I use those all the time. I don't get any hand pain or fatigue, but if I crochet for too long and don't take breaks, my back starts hurting. Unfortunately I can't really recommend any hooks.

[@prettyuniquell2011]

[@judygillisjg]

Hi Olga, I am starting the sleeves, do I crochet them on the right side or wrong side? I love this cardigan can't wait till it's finished. Thanks Judy

[@OlgaPoltava]

I'm so sorry, somehow I missed your comment! On the right side.

[@sdtlawton]

Is there anyway to crochet the sleeves separately and then attach them? I have great difficulty turning the project around and around repeatedly to do the sleeves.

[@OlgaPoltava]

Sure, you can crochet them separately and then sew them in.

[@sdtlawton]

@@OlgaPoltava Thank you, ma’am. Also, to make it taller, like for a tall woman (not heavier), do I just add extra rows to the 25” panel? And then just make the 2 separate side strips the same height?

[@elifranco5470]

I wonder how much yarn you used for your cárdigan so I can calculate how much I need for a bigger zíper for xl plz thanks

[@lindarowan868]

Could you please tell me what length do I make for a M/L up to armhole please thank you

Size M/L: 10 inches (or 26 cm) All that info is in the description box below the video!

[@audreyjeffers871]

The first part is that the back and do you crochet to the length you want?

[@OlgaPoltava]

Yes!

[@fernfiberdesigns-joan478]

How many cakes did you use? I love this pattern!

[@traceypeale6754]

She put the number of cakes needed for each size in the description!

[@OlgaPoltava]

For my size (XS/S) I used three cakes. For the other sizes, see the info in the description box.

[@laurelgirard8475]

She has all of that info in the info/description area. Find the little arrow (upside down v), and lightly tap it. All the info on what you need and how to start the pattern is there.

Hello dear, you can tell me please, what the length of the sleeves is for a medium size

How many change would you make for a large?

[@tammygurke7482]

I have my first question, I crocheted my begging chain with even stitches, did my double crochets and second row I did my front post and back post. When I got to the end, it looks like you ended with a back post double crochet, BUT I ended with a front post. Does it matter which one you end with?

Once I start row 6, how long should I measure for a L/XL ? 10:36

[@elizabethlux6942]

Any chance for a toddler/child size

[@OlgaPoltava]

Actually, the sample one that I made in the tutorial should fit 18-24 months. I am not very familiar with the kids sizing, I don't really have any young kids in my family that I could take the measurements off, so unfortunately no, can't really help.

[@jeannettesmith1220]

What if I wanted to add pockets? Can you walk me threw it?

Crochet two identical squares or rectangles and sew them onto the cardigan.

Why on earth can you not do it any slower what is the point of a video if we can't follow the needed steps

[@OlgaPoltava]

First, you need to learn communicating with other people in a polite and respectful manner. Second, I make my video tutorials as additional visual help for the people who value my work and who purchase my written patterns. Have you purchased my pattern? Or are you one of those entitled people who believe that the world owes them things for free? Third, KZbin gives the option of watching any video at slower (or faster) pace. Before making your comment, you should have checked the settings on the video.
