Hi everyone, at 03:54 please ch 28 if you're making a size small! So sorry for the wrong ch count. As always I recommend making this cardigan with the written pattern so you can get the exact stitch count for your size :) - forthefrills.com/crochet-briar-oversized-pocket-cardigan-free-pattern-video-tutorial

@charlieb1764 4 жыл бұрын

What alternative yarn would you recommend? I'm struggling to find an aran yarn that recommends 6mm hook, I can only find 5mm (knit gauge 18 stitches and 24 rows). Can I use this but expect that the size would be bigger or smaller? I just want to make sure I'm making the right size 😊 TIA

@forthefrills 4 жыл бұрын

Hi Charlie, the yarn I used is classified as an aran yarn but I think its closer to a chunky/bulky yarn. I'd recommend looking for a yarn that is suitable for a 6mm hook (regardless if its classified as 'aran' or chunky). Paintbox Yarns Simply Chunky should work well. Grace :)

Hi, I am making this and so far it gone good. I just made one big mistake and it’s too late to turn back and redo. I made the stitches to tight for the back panel and front right panel. For the front right panel I ended up with 65 rows but when I realised my mistake, I did it properly and ended up with 62 rows instead of 66 rows for the front right panel. I did this to make it even. Although i made a few mistakes it still looks good and I’m happy with the result. It is no longer an oversized cardigan, but a regular fitted cardigan. This is my first project as I am a beginner and I urge you to try as it is very simple. BTW I’m making a small.

@forthefrills 4 жыл бұрын

Thank you! You might be adding a stitch in the ch 1? Since ch 1 doesn't count as a stitch, you shouldn't place a stitch in to when crocheting the row above. I hope this makes sense? Also your gauge might be changing as you crochet? I find that this can happen if you have the project in your lap and it hangs over or if you're pulling yarn out of the skein at different tensions. I like crocheting with a pillow on my lap to keep the surface nice and flat :)

Thanks Pam! Since these are balloon sleeves, you can easily crochet the sleeves for a size or two smaller than your normal size, if you'd like them to have a smaller width. Length is completely customisable as you can stop crocheting once you reach your desired length :) A thicker border also sounds like a great option!
