Thank you SO much for the new crochet skills like the wonderful foundation chain and the chainless beginning DC. Two things that have always bugged me are the first row on a chain and the chain three at the beginning of a row. xoxo
This is great! Thank you for all the explanations and great patience!❤️
just finished making one in the anthracite colorway. starting another using caron cotton cakes - beachglass colorway. super cute and quick project!
Love the.way you explain the patterns. You are very easy to follow. Love your tutorials!! Your voice is so comforting as you teach. You are Amazing!!
Here I am crocheting a hanging toilet paper towel holder and I like to watch either knitting or crochet videos. You're voice is calming to watch/listen too. I've never done the foundation double crochet stitch right before but thank you so much for your detailed instructions! So glad to have found your channel and subscribed.
You are so clear with the instructions. New stitches are a big help also. Thank you!
Cool cardigan. This is going to be a Wip in a sec. Love it.♥️
Mine turned out perfect! Thank you so much for sharing this pattern. I'm making a few more!
Just wonderful! Last week I bought 4 skeins of yarn... And is just the same yarn! 🤗 Only mine is blue 👍🏼... Now I know how to do my vest!!! But longer. Thanks!!! 🤗👍🏼🌺
Love it and the yarn looks fabulous, thanks for sharing x
Thankyou. This is such a beautiful cardigan and I love the yarn. Your instructions are so clear and detailed. I will be making myself this tomorrow.
Been crocheting for along time but never heard of the chain-less starting. Very cool. You are very talented. Very easy to understand your instructions.
Thank you for your very clear tutorial . Very. Beautiful sea foam cardigan, I will try to crochet one for myself.
I enjoyed watching you create this little vest. I can't wait to try it.
Beautifully presented, and a lovely pattern. Thankyou !
Awesome top, I've been looking for something of this type to make thank you. Plus thanks for the turning information too I can use it on other projects. 💞💞💞
Love this for summer!
THANK YOU SO MUCH! This is my favourite ever pattern. It has turned out slightly different from yours - but I LOVE IT! I WISH I could share a photo. I went for the 2nd size in pattern. I am UK size 16. I used LionBrand Heartland (love the flow of this yarn) - AND added tassels around the rim and sleeves. My cardigan has ended up being to my knees (tassels to top of calves). Such a flowing item of clothing. I have now made two (they are quick to make!) - had so many compliments. I LOVE your cast on technique - really does stop the seam bunching - AND this stand alone DC is wonderful. Thank you again for your amazing pattern and tutorial xx
Thank you so much for the new stitches....and this will be my favorite summer outerwear bc it is almost like a shaw without the hassle of keeping it straight and long enough for a poncho feeling also. Love it.
Thanks for all you do. I’ll be trying this!!!
I am making my 3rd one in about 4 weeks, love this, soo warm. Thank you for inspiring me and your voice is soo Sweet and easy to listen on my ears and soul. Love you. I make your slouchy knitted sweater cardigan too. Love you.
You sound very young but you do beautiful consistent stitches, I loving this pattern. You also teach the beginning double stitch very well! Thank you I'm gonna give this a try
So beautiful!!

Rebecca Stacey how many skeins did it take you to do the second group sizes?
Very nice calm voice.ur skills r amazing.thank u
I loved your pattern because of how simple your directions were awesome. I need the Lagrange to Xx measurements. ❤️❤️
Thank you for this fun tutorial! I look forward to making this vest right away!! 💕😁
Cute cardigan! Thanks for sharing!
You did an amazing job on this tutorial!❤️❤️❤️ I was looking for an easy summer cover-up to wear over my camisoles and this is really nice and DEFINITELY EASY! 👍 I may try to make one although I'd like one a little more airy/breezy for summer since I'm so hot natured. Thanks so much for taking the time to teach how to do this. Your are very clear and concise with your instructions and your voice is rather calming. Btw... You now have a new fan/subscriber. Until next time... Cheers! 😊
I made the panels earlier this summer but I was afraid to block it. I bought a steamer and blocked it and sewed it up today. I made it with this same yarn that you used and it came out great! I am so excited. I am going to make a few more. I have some of the other red heart colors and I want one in black and white so I will be going to purchase that today or tomorrow. This is an awesome pattern!!!
Thank you for teaching double foundation chain...👌🌹
Thanks for tutorial! Just made mine! Love it!

Great job! Thank you!🙂
Looking forward to trying to make this very nice
I love this! Thank you for such a straight forward tutorial. It seemed to work up fast and easy. This kimono will make lovely gifts. I was a little intimidated by the foundation/first row starting chain and the double stitch turning chain until you showed how EASY they really are. I’m now going to start all my projects like this...thank you so much.
I can’t wait to make one of these
Like the way you explain the pattern
That is beautiful!!
Going to make this.......thanks....

Beautiful cardigan but excellent instructions
Very beautiful and explained very nicely
Beautiful!! I started making one panel and it was too short for me by a lot, so I’ll frog it and make it around 150 stitches long. Again, beautiful pattern for sure!
Same here 😩mine was a little stiff I use the same yarn brand
Thank you for sharing!!

Thanks mam. I like this😍😍😍😍
Very nice!!
Красиво👍👍
On row 4 is stitch count correct? It seems there should be fewer stitches but a number of ch-1 spaces? Thanks a bunch.
I’ve never crocheted a garment before but I think I’ll give this one a try...once I get some of my WIPs done! ☺️
Edit: How did you make sure the color change in your yarn matched at the back seam?
I would try to either find two skiens that have the same color at the start of them and use one for each panel, or use only one skien that has the same color at both ends (check the tail on the outside, and the tail on the inside while you’re at the store to see if they start with the same color). The only other way I can think of would be to use a ball winder and wind up approx half the skien, attempting to split the skien at the middle of a color transition. Then, use the ends you cut apart as your starting tails. Use the winder to wind up each half into two, equal-sized skiens to work from. I’m sure you can cut out a color transition when you’re finished with the first panel to make sure you start on the same color, but that would waste a bunch of yarn. Hope this helps. I’m super curious to find out how she did it!
Hi Robin! I actually did not try to make the color change match at the seam. It just so happened that one panel in Size 1 used up about 1 color repeat in this yarn. If you want to make sure the colors match, the suggestions offered by Aurora Alchemy in the previous reply are good methods. Hope this helps!
Yay For Yarn Great idea! Thanks to both of you ☺️
Thank you for awesome tutorial and pattern I really like it....I want to give this a try but I don't understand how many stitches to start with for the 4x,5x??
Hi Sheryl! All of the stitch counts and instructions for the other sizes not shown in the video are available in the free written pattern. You will find the free pattern by clicking the link in the description box. Hope this helps! Please let me know if you have any questions!
Bonjour
C'est magnifique...bravoo
Hi from Ireland thanks for this it's a gorgeous pattern, such a great idea, I will make for myself first then do for friends as gifts, I was wondering could it be sized down for a child, thanks so much your very talented ,it's great to see someone young so gifted, I am 71years young, xx
Hi Deborah. Yes, you could size this down for a child. You'll need to start with an odd number of stitches, making your panel twice as wide as you want the cardigan length to be from shoulder to hem. Then, work the rows of the pattern until your piece is more than 1/4 the chest measurement when measured from the foundation edge to the top of the last row. I hope this helps!
I also want to make this for children. My 9 year old grandaughter asked for one and I'm sure her four sisters will want one too. Problem is she doesn't live near me so I can't measure her and I don't know if they will understand where I'm asking them to measure
Hi Ruth. If you aren't able to measure the recipients, you could just ask them for their clothing sizes. Then, you could go by the Craft Yarn Council's standard body measurements for each size. www.craftyarncouncil.com/standards/child-youth-sizes Keep in mind that those are body measurements, not measurements for the finished garments, so I would recommend making the finished chest measurement of the cardigan a bit larger than the measurements given. You could take the chest measurement in the size chart, add at least 6 inches, and divide the total by 4. This would give you the finished height (from foundation edge to top row) to work for each panel. I hope this helps! Please let me know if you have any more questions. :)
Vc começa com quantas correntes ? Com quantas correntes faço o tamanho G G ? Obrigada
Love this pattern...What are the multiples? I would love to make this, but want to make it longer..
Hi Diane! If you'd like to adjust the length, just start with an odd number of stitches that gives you the length you want. I hope this helps!
Would this also work with a size hook which is smaller than 8 mm ? I can’t get on with large hook sizes. It’s a great pattern
If you feel comfortable altering patterns to be worked at a different gauge, then yes, it could be done with a smaller hook size. I hope this helps!
❤️❤️❤️👍🏼
I would love to make this longer for dresses, any suggestions?
Hi Mary! Just decide how long you want the cardigan to be from shoulder to hem, and double that measurement. That is how long you want each panel to be. The stitch pattern requires an odd number of stitches. So you'll need to choose an odd number of stitches that will give you the length you want for your total stitch count. You can then make the row of foundation double crochet with that number of stitches, and follow the pattern as normal to finish each panel. I hope this helps!
Is this in multiples of 3, so if I wanted it to fall above the knee? Thanks!
Hi. To adjust the length, you'll need to use an odd number of stitches for your total stitch count. I hope this helps!
Hi is it possible to make a Ruana from your pattern? 😘😘😘❤️❤️❤️
Hi Joan! Yes, you could make a ruana from this pattern. Just add more rows to each panel (to make them wider), and don't sew up the side seams. I hope this helps!
When you sew the panels together, are the panels facing you on the wrong side or the right side?
Hi Marci! Either side of the work could be used as the right side. As for sewing the seam, it's just a whip stitch, so it doesn't matter whether you stitch from the right side or the wrong side of the panels. I stitched my seams from the right side. Hope this helps!
Thank you!
Very nice and easy pattern, i have yarn category 1, which hook size should i use, i want to crochet cardigan size 2?
If you wanted to make this cardigan with #1 Superfine yarn and a different hook size, I would not recommend attempting to change the pattern unless you feel comfortable altering patterns on your own. The hook size you use would depend on which size gave you the drape and feel you want in the fabric with your own personal crochet gauge. You would also need to recalculate the stitch counts and row counts based on your gauge with that hook and yarn to make the pattern work with that yarn. I hope this helps!
@@YayForYarn please can you tell me the multiple of it so i can adjust it to my gauge
Your stitch count needs to be an odd number, so the multiple is 2+1.
@@YayForYarn thank you sooo much 🥰
I am a not so confident advanced beginner with the same question about using a fingering weight yarn . Can you tell me how your project turned out? What adjustments did you make?
Could you on the back seam do the pattern to seam it so looks like all the same instead the break the pattern?
Hi Marcia. Are you referring to joining the panels with something that looks like the eyelet row so the stitch pattern flows across the back seam? You could do that if you prefer. I think it would look best to work a partial row of eyelets along the foundation edge of one of the panels before seaming. Hope this helps!
Hello! Please advise, how many yarn (same as you used) needs for Size 3?
Hi Anna! All of the yarn requirements, information, and written instructions for all of the sizes are included in the free written pattern. Just click the first link in the video description box for the free written pattern. I hope this helps!
Hi. I watched your video on blocking but I’m having trouble taking that info and applying it to larger items such as this. I’ve just finished both panels and am using yarn that is 70% silk/30% nylon so I’ll do the wet blocking. I don’t know what I’m supposed to do once they’re wet. Hang them? Pin them? But how? Any help is welcomed!! Ty :)
Hi Jaime! When you block an item, I don't recommend hanging it up while wet. That can stretch and distort the fabric out of shape. If you're making a gauge swatch, and you suspect that the weight of the fabric in the finished garment might cause the garment to stretch and hang longer than it's supposed to, then you can hang your swatch up after it is blocked and completely dry. Measuring the swatch before hanging and then again after you've allowed it to hang for 24 hours will help you determine if the finished fabric will stretch as you wear it. Otherwise, I don't recommend hanging things up when blocking. For larger panels like in this project, if you don't have enough blocking mats to pin them out on, you can lay them out on towels, making sure the edges are fairly straight, and they are laid out to their finished measurements. (If you do have enough blocking mats, you can lay them out and pin the edges straight so they measure correctly. I like to start with the short edges, pin them straight so they are the same distance apart as the finished length, and pin them to the correct width, and then pin the long sides straight so the width is consistent.) Then, just let them dry. Once they are totally dry, you can finish assembling the project. I hope this helps!
There are measurements given in the pattern instructions for the finished size of each panel. Those are the measurements you would need to block the panels to. I hope this helps!
Can this be made with mandala yarn? I have two skeins just waiting to be used and I'm dying to try my luck at making this garment.
Hi! This can be made with any #4 Worsted Weight yarn you like. I know there are several different versions of that yarn, but as long as it is #4 worsted weight, it will work just fine. Hope this helps!
Yay For Yarn Thank You!
I'm making one now. What multiples is it? I want to make mine longer
Hi Samantha! If you want to make it longer, you can begin with any odd number of stitches. I hope this helps!
