Hi, your videos are really wonderful and relaxing and has a meditating effect while knitting the piece. One small request would be to mention the number of stitches at the end of each row just to make sure that we are doing the right number of increases and decreases. Thanks again.
Thank you soooo much for posting these videos. Following your instructions I was able to make a cardigan for my new grandson in ONE DAY! It was so easy too. I'm going to try to make another one a little bit larger.
I'm happy to hear it! If you are on Instagram, please take pics and mention me (@sowolly), so I can see it ;D!!!
Thanks for such detailed explanation it's really had to understand without a trainers like you.God bless you.
Thank you... i completed my baby cardigan today with your detailed explanation and guidance...i am so proud of myself today...
Hi! Your instruction is so clear and perfect, I really enjoyed your videos and just finished knitting a cardigan for a new born. Thankyou so much, and wish you all the best.
Thank you so much! You’ve put a smile on my face 😊
Congratulations for your cardigan!
All the best to you too.
I have a question! When starting the sleeve, could you please closely show how to knit the first stitch?
I'm so happy I found you !
You explain so well, are so precise...
I really needed and wanted to learn this technique which I couldn't understand !
Many thanks from Bergamo, Itaky👍👍👍👏👏👏👏👏🔝🔝🔝❤
You’re the best at knitting explanations , you make it so easy and very relaxing to watch and hear you explain, thank you so so much, can’t wait to start on this project 👍🙏
Thank you 😊!!! It’s very kind of you 🥰
marvelous method of picking stiches and knitting sleeves without mess
Thank you! You are very sweetheart to share your knowledge with everyone who is interesting about knitting. Love you!👍🌾❤🌾👏😃
You are very sweet, thank you for your lovely comment 💝‼️
Do you have a video showing how to pick up those stitches in the underarm in more detail? I can't quite see how it's done.
I had this problem and slowed the video right down and zoomed in. You have probably made your cardigan now. Hope it was successful!❤
Hi there I have been following your tutorial and have been getting on really well up until the sleeves, at the underarm part it is very untidy and I end up with holes what am I doing wrong ? please help x
Just finished this for my daughter's second boy due early November in England. Now to ship it off. Love the videos as well as printed instructions. Never done a sweater top down or in the round sleeves but now I have. Thank you.
Congratulations Liz, and thank you for your lovely comments 🤗 Happy knitting 🧶‼️
❤thank you very much I have really enjoyed your tutorials keep that up😅
Thank you 😊
Don't like knitting with a circular needle, I did the sleves on four short sock needles and they worked out fine. Thank you for the pattern.
👍🏼
Great sweater, my first ever knit from the top pattern and I have done 3 so far. Wonderful explanation and demonstration, thank you so much! I have adjusted the pattern a little bit by using a crochet cast-on instead of a long tail cast on. I found a good you tube video for this, which makes the cast on row a bit more stretchy and nicer I think. Also, instead of casting on 42 stitches, I added two more and cast on 44 (place the first marker after the 4th stitch, and the last one 4 stitches from the end), Then for the buttonhole row number 11, knit 2 together, yarn over, then knit stitches 3 and 4. It makes for a nicer button hole, and then you don't have to do any cast on stitch on the next row number 12 (purl row).
Thank you! Happy knitting 🤗
Thanks you are a very good tutor.
Thank you 😊
Loved it im still to do mine
Enjoy 😊! Happy knitting 🧶
Very beautiful And understanding video. Learning a lot. Thank you very much.
Thank you so much for a lovely video and easy-to-follow explanation.
Can you make a video explaining how to join the sleeves in more detail, focusing in closing the underarm gap. That part isn't as clear as the rest of it. Thank you. :)
Thank you for these videos. I’m a crocheter and struggled with knitting but I’ve taught myself to knit continental style which I find much easier. By following your instructions and rewatching several bits many times, I have made a cardigan. It's not brilliant and not fit to give anyone but I’ve learnt the technique and am confident to try another one. I worked the second sleeve in a different colour so I could see how the stitches work when you're picking them up which helped me understand the structure. Your technique and voice over is very easy to follow, you've helped me a great deal, thank you.
Thank you! I’m glad you tried and finished it! The second one will be much better 😉 Knitting is all about patience and practice ...
Hey am really struggling on sleeves it's just not sticking to me with what I need to do .. would it be possible if you could explain it to me please . The instructions are clear I'm just not able to wrap it around my head what am suppose to do 🤦♀️🙈🤦♀️ ... any suggestions?
Hi, is it your first time knitting in the round?
@@sowoolly yes never knitted in my life 😊
Muchas gracias por compartir este patrón! En poco menos de tres meses nacerá mi ahijado, me viene perfecto como regalo de bienvenida ❤️
Entonces enhorabuena 👶👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼‼️
Wow! After watching all 3 video's, I believe I can do this. I'm super excited.. my very first sweater.. hopefully I won't need to bother you with questions . Thank you so much..hugs
Thanks for teaching this way. Beginning from coller. I did not
Know.
Could you help. . you can teach that in another way. Thank s again
Regards my
Mrs S
You teach it really good. I am an absolute beginner. Dint kno nothing abt this but my project came out wonderful
Congratulations and thank you for your comment!
Your videos are so easy to follow, thank you. Quick question, if I want to make this blue cardigan for a baby that is 4 going on 5 months, how many extra stitches I do start with, original pattern is 40. Thanks a million
Amazing 👍, thanks
Hi So woolly, I have finally succeeded in following your tutorial and I'm so glad I have achieved in making the baby cardigan. Thankyou very much you really taught so well, Espy.
It is very easy way and good learning method. Thank you
Pls teach more projects on sweter and also how to take masurment s during knitting
Thank you! Please take a look of all the projects here: ruclips.net/p/PLuYKIe0IecIabmHX71X7ptaiJqBvm3zBI
I loved this method of knitting and the little cardigan it made. You explain it so well. Do you have a video of using this method to make a sweater for a 6-9 month old? Not a cardigan. I'd love it if you do
Not yet, but Winter is coming 😉
@@sowoolly ☺️
Thank you soo much
It’s so easy to follow and understand
Its lovely thank you again
Please upload some more videos
Your videos are really good. Thank you 😊
Amazing Job
Thank you so much 💓 💗 💛
Impressive ۔love it
Thank you 😊
Thankyou so much for your awesome instructions. Beginner knitter and it turned out as it should 😁. I'm so stoked. Too small for my big grandi unfortunately. Could you please explain how I would convert pattern to next size up? Is it as simple as using bigger needles and following same pattern? Thanks again 😊
Amazing video! I had never tried to knit anything other than a blanket before and this video made it so easy to follow! You explain so well and make it feel easy! Thanks so much!
I’m happy to hear it! Thank you for your lovely comment 🤗
Thank you for these videos they where easy to follow could you please do a V-neck cardigan
Your video's are great. I know the basics of knitting but found following patterns difficult, but reading the pattern and watching your videos. I am on my second go at making this cardigan. Do you have a pattern to make it for bigger sizes e.g 3-6 months. Thanks
Great videos! Thank you for sharing your time and energy. Quick question, what stitch are you picking up before knitting in the round on the sleeves? I don't see it on the written pattern, but I see you picking up two on the video. Thank you!
Thank you! When you pick up the stitches for knitting the sleeves, you'll see a hole just where the underarm starts. There are 2 ways of solving this: either, you pick up the stitches from the scratch yarn, knit the sleeve, and then close the hole using your darning needle to sew it...or you pick up a couple stitches from each side of the sleeve, as I did this time, to avoid the hole. Later, knitting the sleeve, those stitches will be decreased. Cheers!
I love your knitting method nd teaching methods also...thank you so much...im from India how many stitches are decreased in sleave
Thank you! Please take a look at the written instructions 😉
@@sowoolly okk ma'am
Hi, for the sleeves I use 5 needles to work round until the finish of sleeves.Is more confortable for me!
Your videos are excellent for this newborn cardi. The only problem I had was I could not see where you picked up and knitted the first two stitches when starting to knit the sleeve. I obviously did not do it in the right place because I have a hole in the underarm. Thank you for this wonderful pattern. And videos.
Thank you for your lovely comment, Janice. No worries, it has happened to all of us at least one. You can try to sew it up, to make the hole less apparent. Please take a look at this example: ruclips.net/video/IDnWczZtzr8/видео.html Good luck :-)
Quick question for the sleeves: Do you decrease on the first set of 10 rounds only, or do you continue to decrease once with each set of 10 until it measures 6 inches? Im so close to the finish line! 😂🎉
Well done 😊! I don’t remember, have you checked the written instructions? (You’ll find the link below the video, in the description box).
Im delighted! 🧶 thank you so much for responding ❤
I'm rushing back just to let you know I realised my mistake 😂 after reading and watching several times I've figured it out. Thanks again, I will be following. Please do more all in one patterns it helps my soul 😂❤
Thank you for your comments, and don’t forget to share some pics! Happy knitting❣️
Thank you so much for your easy to follow baby cardigan. I have made it for our first baby grandson.❤ may I know how I calculate the stiches and length for adult side? I love to knit for myself this lovely easy pattern.
I’m glad to hear it! Congrats 🎉🎈🎊! I have designed the pattern for newborns only, but I’ll keep it in mind 😉
Thank you 😊
I did very well until the sleeves. I find it very tight to knit and as someone else said I dont have a stitch to use once the stitches are on.
jolene sullivan I found the same, tight sleeve. Not easy to knit in the round.
Thank u so much
U done a great work
I really apreciate u🤩🥰😍
How many stitches to knit for 3-6 month ? Plz
Instead of using the magic loop technique on the sleeves, can I just use a small 9 inch circular needle?
Thank you so so much
I don't know how to knit in the round 😕, i tried so many times but I couldn't get it
I was doing so good until the sleeves! I lost count of how many rows I knit in the magic loop. Is there a way to tell count them to see if I have 10 rows and can start decreasing?
No worries, measure the sleeve: 10 rows are 3.6 cm approximately 😉
Me too I was so excited when infinished the 2 part and goofed up some where in the sleeve part
@@sowoolly can I get in touch with you in instagram ?
Yes, you’ll find me as @sowoolly 😉
Couldn't wait to start on the sleeves. I thought it was going to be a peice of cake 😮.....until I was all tangled up with cable.... in all fingers and thumbs. However after a while studying your video I persevered and the sleeves seem to be coming along OK... although under the arms looks a little rugged but i've got a bit of a rhythm going now. 😅 thank you for the tutorial.
Hi could you please tell us how many stitches are needed for
3/6 moths 6/12months a reply will be much appreciated
Hi ,I have 1 doubt...I am on the sleeves now,am I supposed to decrease for all rows until 6 inches or only 1 row?
Thank you
Hi! Please take a look at the written instructions (there’s a link to the pattern below the video, on the description box 😉)
@@sowoolly tku
Can you make this with straight knitting needles??
I only own straight needles is it possible to do the sleeves with them
If not I will buy some circular ones
I think it’s easier to knit the sleeves with circulars (seamless).
@@sowoolly I agree I will go and get a pair thank q
Can I ask why you turn the last two stitches around then k2tog on the last decrease of the row. Thank you.
Can the sleeves be done on a circular knitting needles? Thank you.
Thank you sooo much for the video on how to knit a baby cardigan . Your videos are soo clear and easy to follow🥰🥰🥰 ...
for me I think initial start up was just a lil where I messed until I reread the instructions and undone all the work for the first half....
Then next bit was the sleeves I just struggled at the start on actually how to do it so I left it until the following day which is today 🙈 and manage to complete it as shown on Instagram.... not perfect but hopefully with practice it will be .. although working in a circular motion was ok not as bad as I thought it was at the start...
My only issue is I cant knit fast I'm quite a slow knitter although I only knitted the cardigan in 3 parts maybe 2 hours a day ... how can I pick up the pace, any tips please?
Thank you Amina! I’m glad you made it! Sometimes we just to need to start! And there is always a first time 😉 In the other hand, I think that quality is much better than quantity. It doesn’t matter if you can’t knit more than 2 hours a day. The most important thing is that you enjoy them and can concentrate to avoid mistakes. If you really love knitting, it will become an habit, and you’ll always find the space 🤗 Cheers and happy knitting 🧶
@@sowoolly thank you x
I need to buy needles and suitable wool etc. to knit this easy newborn cardigan. I am new to knitting. Can you recommend a dependable website where I can make the purchase for all that I need. Thank you.
For the stockinette pattern on sleeve is it not required to knit one row then purl another ? Do all the rows (except last 3 garter) need to be knit for sleeves ?
Hi,How many stitches did you cast on?
I’m a beginner
Please cast on 42, and take a look at the written instructions 😉
Thanks
So woolly
Hello this looks great - is there a way to do the sleeves without round needles ?? I only have straight but I already started the cardigan
Hello, I’m afraid you’ll need the circular needles for the sleeves
Hi So Woolly, Thank you for this great pattern...I'm nearly finished! One question; after row 11 on the sleeves, do I continue to decrease until the sleeve measures 6 inches? Or is the decrease just for Row 11?
Thank you :)
Thank you Clare, I'm happy to hear it! After row 11 keep knitting (without decreasing), until the sleeve measures 6 in. Happy knitting!
Thank you kindly for your reply😊
Sooooo cute ❤️❤️❤️❤️💜💜💜💜
Thank you!!!!
How do I find the writtenpattern
Can this be done on smaller needles to make it a touch smaller
Yes, no problem at all. The smaller the needles, the smaller the cardigan 😉
I can't find the pattern on the website. Just the picture. Is it no longer available?
The website is having a technical issue at the moment, and the programmer is working on it. I'll let you know as soon as it's solved ;) Thank you.

The sleeve is really confusing
On the second row we have to pull the needle that has the stitch marker on it but that also has the working yarn there but then when we start knitting the second row the working yarn is at the bottom and also do we knit and then purl or just knit
Hello! It takes time and practice, so don’t worry if it’s not perfect the first time. When knitting the Stockinette stitch in the round, we always knit. Each round is a knit round (never purl). The Garter stitch is different: Purl one round, knit the
...next. Maybe you need to change the set up of the video, and start watching it in slow motion. I think it will help you.
@@sowoolly thank you so much I think I've got it down know it's just that I get very flustered when I'm not able to do something and this cardigan is very special as not only is it my very first one it is going to a family member who will is currently pregnant and now under a lot of stress due to the coronavirus
@@sowoolly and we are only decreasing once on the sleeve ?
Where is part 1
Can the sleeves be done on straight needles?
Hello Justine, I don't think so (for this pattern). I have another cardigan in several sizes made completely with straight needles: ruclips.net/video/i8UMaRaN7S0/видео.html
Something fishy for me , while knitting in the round do u knit the purl side too
Yes, when knitting Stockinette stitch in the round, we knit every round. You can watch the step by step process on this video tutorial

I don't understand how the armpit side of the sleeve is shorter then the shoulder side but you didn't change anything. You just kept knitting the same rows. I also don't understand how you just knit the sleeve, you don't do any purl rows but the pattern is the same on the sleeve as the rest of the sweater.
Watch video 2
To make stockinette stitch when you are knitting flat, you knit one row (RS) and purl the next (WS). When you are working in the round, the right side is always facing you, so you just keep knitting (no purling). The reverse is true for garter stitch,
I haven't been able to find the pattern, why??
