Your beginner series was super helpful. I just started learning last week and am currently making you beginner top right now. This cardigan is BEAUTIFUL and I really want to try this asap!!
For broad sholder girlies my personal measurement for sholders were 20" and my sc chains that i calculated were 75. Hope this helps for thr first part ^^
@user-hz2ff3cw5v ok it turned our well I just made it to my size by seeing if it was 2 small or 2 big I posted it on mdia_crochet if u wanna see I just regret doing black color yarn cause it's thick
This is my first crochet project ever and it turned out to be the cutest cardigan I’ve ever had. Thank you so much and I wanted to let you know that it was incredibly helpful!

@@daniellec9304 hi! i used about 2 and 1/3 skeins of the lion brand pima cotton yarn, so around 130 g of yarn. i am a size large tho, so i used more yarn than brittany probably did since i think she’s a small :)
I just finished making this cardigan and I can wait to wear in on my holidays!! The tutorial was so handy and easy to follow along.. Now I’ve got a request from my little sister to make her one 🥰☺️
Hello everyone! Written instructions for the gauge swatch are located in the description box now. I realize I didn't put the shoulder measurement/gauge swatch instructions around 2:12 in centimeters. So here are the instructions for people using the metric system with my measurements as an example: Shoulder measurement/10 = measurement A 36/10 = 3.6 (measurement A) Measurement A * number of sts from gauge swatch = measurement B 3.6 * 5 = 18 (measurement B) Measurement B * 3 = number of foundation slip stitches 18 * 3 = 54 (number of foundation slip stitches used in row 1) ALSO... When counting the odd rows for your back panel do NOT count row 1. I technically have 24 rows for my back panel if I include row 1 in that as well. That was a mistake on my end, sorry!
I’m still confused you say you got 5 stitches by 11 rows for a 4 by 4 square mine is 15 stitches to make 4 inches. Did you go by how many stitches where in a inch or is that how many mesh stitches are in 4 inches
@@zelene.jasmin.1549 I just went with how many mesh stitches there were, but be careful mine ended up a little wider than what I meant it to be but it works.
I absolutely LOVE this pattern! It's not something that I would wear, but my sister's birthday is coming up, and I really want to make this for her. I just don't know how I would get the measurements from her without her realizing what I'm doing...
I am so so so slow I swear. I can't understand anything you were saying in the first step. Everytime I tried it came out weird 😐. Idk maybe I just need more practice but I'll definitely try again.
@@zoyaali7980 Hiya at 3:56 you need to follow rows 1-3 then repeat row 3 until your swatch is at least 15cmx15cm or 6x6 inches. It's not mentioned in the video, but you'll need to make sure you're foundation row, is in multiples of three, as you'll be working row two (the mesh stitches) in every 3rd stitch. Then when completed you need to measure 4 inches horizontal on your swatch, and count how many mesh stitches fit into 4 inches. That's the measurement your need to work out the rest of the measurements mentioned at the start of the video. Hope this helps. I've got photos if needed ☺
I really appreciate you showing simply how to size yourself, I’ve always struggled with crochet patterns because they’re never big enou so I really appreciate it
@@daniellec9304 of course and by the way, my sweater is more of a tight fit.. and that used the entire ball.. so if you want looser you’ll probably need to get another ball for safe measures! Good luck!! :)
@DEJOSHUA hi! yes I only used one ball but that also depends on your size and the yarn.. I used acrylic and I’m a small! (Mine came out a little more on the right side)
ive been trying to find an easy top to make and then you posted this video and i started making it immediatley I LOVE IT its coming out perfect!!!!! you make awesome tutorials ur my fav crotchet youtuber
Thank you so much for the tutorial!!! I started this project last year and only now was able to finish it and the final result was a lot better then what I expected I loved it and will be wearing it a lot in the winter 🫶🫶🫶
I just finished the cardigan and it so perfect. Thank you so much for the tutorial, it was easy to follow and although i made a LOT of mistakeit turned out amazing!
YOURE AMAZING!!!!! i love all your tutorials so much!! youre so incredibly helpful and i love the way you explain things and take time to demonstrate, thank you so much for always being so encouraging! :-)
for the front tie part, what do we do if the last row doesn't end on the inside? should I add a row or get rid of one? I have 22 rows and my 21st one ended on the outside of my project
My first project was your beginner top a month ago and it ended up being super cute but I managed to do it too big for myself 🤡 so I destroyed it and using the yarn to do this cardigan. I am doing the sleeves right now and it already looks very good.
i love this pattern! my only question relates to the increase. you said rows 1-4 should be repeated after row 5 but row 5 leaves the crotchet hook on the side you didn't want us to increase on?
i made it.. it took 2 days and i did short sleaves not long but it looks so cute, i crochet alot but this was my first time using a pattern and i love it
Youre literally soooo cute thank you so much.. you explain everything so easily and I have to say this is soo much easier than making beanies for me lol. Thank you!! 🫶
I'm making thos top for my sister and your tutorial is really helpful!! even though I'm struggling with english for crochet and with making a top bigger than size small, you do explain everything very understandable. there's not a big amount of tutorials for this kinda net cardigans that my sister whanted, so thank you very much❤
hi there! i'm not ending up on the side of the increase after almost finishing my front panel and moving on to the ties. i have 27 rows in the back panel so i'm ending on 26 in the front, but not on the side of the increase. how do i fix this? can i just add a row and move on? frogging may be a bit difficult for me because of this stitch, i can hardly count the rows lol
I have the same size as you and my back panel becomes wider each row. The bottom is 14 inches and I'm currently on row 9 and it is 16 inches. I try to stretch the bottom part but the upper rows stay the same which is too wide for me. What should I do?
When you say repeat round 2, do you mean repeat it till the end of sleves or repeat 2nd round and then the 3rd and in circles like that? Im really stuck on that
Hi! I really love this video and am super super excited to make the top, but I'm really struggling with the foundation slip stitch you're using for the back panel, especially going from the 1st to the 2nd stitch. Do you have any tips that can make it easier? Thank you
finished it today but sadly I underestimated the schoulder parts.... even after adding some stitches to your number it is way to small for me. i now have an off shoulder cardigan :D hope i can fix it
This cardigan is so cute and absolutely perfect! How long did it take you to finish? I’m wondering if I’ll have time to make it as a gift for someone’s birthday soon :)
It took about 2 days working on it, I think...This wasn't a super quick project, but if you have a week or so before the birthday and can work on it a few hours every night you'll definitely be able to finish if you've been crocheting for a little while now :)
this is a great and super detailed tutorial, as always 💙 getting the foundation slip stitches right took some time for me but after that everything seems pretty straightforward :-) just a quick question. i’m about to finish my gauge swatch, after doing the measurements and stuff, do you think i could frog all of it and use it for the actual back panel so as to not waste yarn? lol
@@brittanyalicecrochet thank you for your reply and for your tutorials in general :) youre the best! btw do you happen to have social media like instagram?
It's the same as what I thought, for me it's difficult to have that whole complex process to get to that result (I already tried😭) I I will try to do the stitches until I reach the size of my shoulders. That's just what's complicated for me, the rest is very easy to follow!
Hi! I’m confused about the slip stitches at the end of each row on the sleeves - am I slip stitching into the the very first chain of the very first row for every row down the sleeve, or is it the first chain of each chain 5 down each row the sleeve? I just can’t get it right, I’ve started the sleeves over 3 times now :(
I'd say style it just like she did! Wearing it over a tank top or crop top would look best. Since it's white, I think it would look fine over any color. As for pants, shorts or jeans would probably look great with it. Hope that helps :)
I honestly didn't get the foundation row nor did the swatch😭 if anyone's like me, i simply measured my shoulders and chained that measure but made it match a multiple of 3 (+1 chain for height) and then made a row of slip stitches
I'm so Happy that i found this tutorial i hope IT will end Well but I will make IT longer and I'm making IT to spice Up my outfit for christmas dinner.
for my reference front panel row 1-4 starts 18:38 row 1: ch6 turn. sc in 1st ch sp. ch5. sc in same ch sp. * ch5. sc in next ch sp. * repeat * until end of row. row2: ch6. turn. sc in 1st ch sp. * ch5. sc in next ch sp. * repeat * until end of row row3: repeat row 2 row 4: repeat row 2
I’m confused about your gauge stitch. You say that yours is 5 to get the 4”. Are you accounting the single crochet in the mesh rather than the stitches in the foundation rows? Because 5 stitches in the bottom row is less than 2 loops, so this made no sense to me. Can anyone clarify what you are actually measuring in the gauge?
When I say 5 sts, I mean 5 mesh stitches. It seems I didn't make that clear enough! So you are going to be counting each mesh stitch, which is from one single crochet to the next single crochet. So that means you'll be counting each chain space as one mesh stitch.
I was having trouble too but I figured it out. Each chain is a stitch. Horizontally just count each little rain shaped chain. Vertically you count the chain in a zigzag going up or you can count each knot as 2 stitches.
Would it be possible to add more rows after we created the front tie? I don’t want it to be so cropped, but I want the tie to be right in the middle of my bust
I crocheted the body part within few hours but its been three days and i still can't crochet the sleeves part no matter how much i try. Its depressing cause i was so excited for this top because this is my project as a beginner.
hello ! i reeaally want to make this but i'm a little confused. how do you count the # of stitches for the gauge swatch ?? also, you use a 4"x4" gauge swatch for your measurements and the example, but you say ours needs to be at least 6"x6" ? does that mean we would multiply our 'measurement A' by however many stitches it takes to get 6" across ?
At 0:57 you can see what my gauge swatch looks like. You are going to be counting each mesh stitch, which is from one single crochet to the next single crochet. So that means you'll be counting each chain space as one mesh stitch. Making a 6x6 square just ensures your 4x4 measurement will be more accurate because the edges can sometimes mess up the measurement. So for measurement A you will still use the number of stitches 4" across
Hello, question, can I make the back panel for the front as well? I know this is a dumb question I'm just a beginner and wanted to do this but not in a wrap. Don't get me wrong please I love your work just wondering if I can make it like a crop top 😊😊
Been following this steadily for like a week. Kept on getting the measurements wrong, but i finally made it to the sleeves. But I'm stuck. Like is the sleeve mesh holes supposed to be reducing. I had 24 initially after seaming, but after 5 rows of the sleeves i have 18. Am i doing something wrong?
Is there supposed to be a "cap" so to speak on how many increases to make on the front panel? I followed the pattern and increase instructions but now my top is WAY too big in the front, where I either have a lot of space when I tie the ties together OR a large bunch when I try to tie it tightly. (The back and shoulders fit perfectly though.)
Hello! Ive been making this top for a while and i seem to have a really big problem when making the sleeves, they keep on getting tighter and reducing as i continue ive redone it many times but this keeps on happening, what can i do?
Your beginner series was super helpful. I just started learning last week and am currently making you beginner top right now. This cardigan is BEAUTIFUL and I really want to try this asap!!
That's awesome! Thank you :)

Hii i dont want to sound rude but what is the point of making the gauge swatch? Sorry Im still kind of new to corchet
It's the same as what I thought, for me it's difficult to have that whole complex process to get to that result (I already tried😭) I I will try to do the stitches until I reach the size of my shoulders. That's just what's complicated for me, the rest is very easy to follow!

i feel your pain! super confused with the sleeves too
Thank you so much for this Tutorial! I just finished cardigan als I love it
since you finished it can you help me? Do we miltiply measuremnt A by 5 or whatever number we for the height?
does anybody know how to style this?? made this a while back and have no idea how to style
I'd say style it just like she did! Wearing it over a tank top or crop top would look best. Since it's white, I think it would look fine over any color. As for pants, shorts or jeans would probably look great with it. Hope that helps :)
How do you make the guage swatch?
I honestly didn't get the foundation row nor did the swatch😭 if anyone's like me, i simply measured my shoulders and chained that measure but made it match a multiple of 3 (+1 chain for height) and then made a row of slip stitches
Help im so slow 😭😭😭 whats a multiple of three 😭😭😭😭
I'm so Happy that i found this tutorial i hope IT will end Well but I will make IT longer and I'm making IT to spice Up my outfit for christmas dinner.
Love the tutorial and its very well explained i just wanted to ask, why you flip it after every roud of the sleeves
could you also make the sleeve without the turn ? it seems easier to just crotchet it in the round, but im unsure if that wil make the sleeve bad
for my reference
front panel row 1-4 starts 18:38
row 1: ch6 turn.
sc in 1st ch sp.
ch5. sc in same ch sp.
* ch5. sc in next ch sp. * repeat * until end of row.
row2: ch6. turn.
sc in 1st ch sp.
* ch5. sc in next ch sp. * repeat * until end of row
row3: repeat row 2
row 4: repeat row 2
PLEASE make matching pants like swim cover up flared pants in this pattern would be PERFECT
that is a great idea!
How much yarn did you guys end up using?
I’m confused about your gauge stitch. You say that yours is 5 to get the 4”. Are you accounting the single crochet in the mesh rather than the stitches in the foundation rows? Because 5 stitches in the bottom row is less than 2 loops, so this made no sense to me. Can anyone clarify what you are actually measuring in the gauge?
When I say 5 sts, I mean 5 mesh stitches. It seems I didn't make that clear enough! So you are going to be counting each mesh stitch, which is from one single crochet to the next single crochet. So that means you'll be counting each chain space as one mesh stitch.
Thanks for the tutorial, but how do u count the number of stitches from the gauge swatch?
i also have this question, pls someone reply i'm desperate 😢
I was having trouble too but I figured it out. Each chain is a stitch. Horizontally just count each little rain shaped chain. Vertically you count the chain in a zigzag going up or you can count each knot as 2 stitches.
was JUST thinking about making one of these, perfect timing!
Happy you found me then! :)
Omg pls do more y2k stuff I’m way too obsessed
Do you have any suggestions? I'm trying to get more ideas :)
how do u know how many rows to crochet for your front panel? Is that something you decide for yourself?
Would it be possible to add more rows after we created the front tie? I don’t want it to be so cropped, but I want the tie to be right in the middle of my bust
I haven’t had time to watch the video yet so can someone please tell me if I can adjust this for a 3xl?
I think so
I crocheted the body part within few hours but its been three days and i still can't crochet the sleeves part no matter how much i try. Its depressing cause i was so excited for this top because this is my project as a beginner.
hello ! i reeaally want to make this but i'm a little confused. how do you count the # of stitches for the gauge swatch ??
also, you use a 4"x4" gauge swatch for your measurements and the example, but you say ours needs to be at least 6"x6" ? does that mean we would multiply our 'measurement A' by however many stitches it takes to get 6" across ?
At 0:57 you can see what my gauge swatch looks like. You are going to be counting each mesh stitch, which is from one single crochet to the next single crochet. So that means you'll be counting each chain space as one mesh stitch.
Making a 6x6 square just ensures your 4x4 measurement will be more accurate because the edges can sometimes mess up the measurement. So for measurement A you will still use the number of stitches 4" across
Hello, question, can I make the back panel for the front as well? I know this is a dumb question I'm just a beginner and wanted to do this but not in a wrap. Don't get me wrong please I love your work just wondering if I can make it like a crop top 😊😊
Love this tutorial! Could you make a video on how to crochet granny square bell bottoms?
Thank you! Great suggestion :)
Has another written the pattern for this crossover tie cardigan?
I'm struggling to understand it.
Been following this steadily for like a week. Kept on getting the measurements wrong, but i finally made it to the sleeves. But I'm stuck. Like is the sleeve mesh holes supposed to be reducing. I had 24 initially after seaming, but after 5 rows of the sleeves i have 18. Am i doing something wrong?
i wish there a was a video on how to make a gauge swatch because i am a beginner and i have absolutely no clue how to make one to look like this
me too! :((
you just follow the steps for the front panel section but instead do around 30 foundation stitches and repeat the rows until the swatch is 6x6 inches
I guess there is a link in description for gauge swatch
Is there supposed to be a "cap" so to speak on how many increases to make on the front panel? I followed the pattern and increase instructions but now my top is WAY too big in the front, where I either have a lot of space when I tie the ties together OR a large bunch when I try to tie it tightly. (The back and shoulders fit perfectly though.)
Can you please explain how to count the number of rows in the back and front panels? Having trouble figuring it out…
I did the math with centimeters and got a completely different result as when I did it with inches.
Hello! Ive been making this top for a while and i seem to have a really big problem when making the sleeves, they keep on getting tighter and reducing as i continue ive redone it many times but this keeps on happening, what can i do?
hi, how are u? i have a question.. if i do the shoulder measurements in cm, ill have to multiply it by four and three? or which cm do i have to use?
I would love to do this but I'm entirely put off by the maths and the foundation slip stitch
i'm almost finished.. but i keep messing up the sleeves 😭 it keeps decreasing??
Hiya when you attach the yarn to make the other sleave into the chain space do you put the first sc in the same space please? X
Can you do longer ones not cropped?
omg this is too cute i’m def making this soon
yay! :)
Ouuu this outfit too cute !! Summer 2022 ain’t ready 💙
Thank uuu!!
