Best sweater tutorial ever. I have seen several and this is the way I make my sweaters. I love the way the shoulders came together
Thankkkssss
Thank you so so so much for making this. I have been looking EVERYWHERE for days for a cardigan like this one. Everyone wants to make short ones and I'm like 'I need a long one'. This was literally sent from heaven. The instructions were so clear and really helpful. For reference, how long was the cardigan?/How tall are you?
Hey! I love to hear it. I really appreciate the feedback. I am 5'5 and I made it 53" long from the shoulder to floor.
@@SewingWithTAE Thank you so much. ❤🤩
Can this pattern be adjusted to be longer for taller people or people who may just want a long long one?@@SewingWithTAE
Thank you for this!! It helped tremendously!
Youre welcome!
Thanks so much for your tutorial, I am going watch this again and attempt to make one .
You can do it!
Nice clear direction in this tutorial. Love your Cardi!
Thanksss
Love your video great to see your son learning,beautiful cardigan 🇬🇧
The most helpful video I seen so far. Definitely been searching and I can honestly say you are the only one that helped me achieve the look I’m going for 🎉❤
Awww thank you. I really appreciate it
Your son wanting a "son reveal " video with his face hidden in the thumbnail is taking me out little man said mama I need to be announced lol😂 & I actually like the transparency of yarn cost I think it adds a good factor to the video because it adds to the informative aspect of the video.
Hes very funny. Yes the cost is important cus its nice but it wasnt “cheap”
Thank you for sharing this with us, I’m more determined to make it now. 😊
Yahhh tag me on my social so I can see it
You’re the best! I just started hand knitting and have been wanting to make one so bad! I searched high and low and only seen the short ones or no tutorial. Thanks girly!
Youre so welcome! If you have IG follow me and send a picture
Although you didn't know color difference, it came out super cute with the two different color yawns🖤🖤🖤 oh, maybe try another one in a hot pink with a hood🩷🩷🩷
THIS WAS AWESOME!!!! GREAT !!! Now I’m inspired!!!
Awesome! Thank you!
Just a suggestion that you can use a lighter and burn each end to attach a new skein of this kind of yarn it comes out much nicer and it will never come apart and you will never feel a bump of a knot. Just a suggestion
Oooh love this
This ! Lighters have became my friend.
I am here from TT and this sweater is everything. I MUST TRY THIS.
Let me know how it goes!!
thank you for this video! i hate watching videos for patterns and tutorials but your video was literally the only video i could watch😂 you explained everything so thoroughly and i was able to complete 3 cardigans ! now im working on a hood using your blog❤️ do you know how i could add pockets to the cardigan ?

Thanks!
Great job, love the cardigan! 👏🏾👏🏾This Midwest weather ain't no joke! 🥶 It`s 0° in Chicago a -35° feel but perfect weather for one of these blanket sweaters 😊
Def midwest appropriate!
I couldn't conceptualize how to make the sleeves and then I saw you do it. Had myself a little come to Jesus moment lol
Yahhhh I love to hear it
The most helpful video by far. But friend you didn't show us how to do the neck area. I'm on my first front panel but I don't know what to do with the neck area after both front panels are done.
I found my answer in your Q&A Thank you so much for your time. Now let me finish my panels lol 😆 😂
Youre very welcome!
Loving your videos and love this duster
This was the Only tut i understood thank you and it’s so pretty love the colors 😍😌😌
I'm so glad!!! Thanks
That's for this tutorial. Waiting for my Yarn sold out lots of places. 😮
Yes, one of the reason I didn’t finish the hoodie because I couldn’t get any more yarn
This is awesome. I wish i could knit but i can crochet my tail off
This is super easy. If you could crochet, I’m sure you can do this.
im so im love!!!😩i just need help with with sizing the length for other people in terms of taller people and the sleeves. please help😩😭
I usually just measure down from the shoulder to the floor for length and from Center of back neck for sleeve. Then make it slightly shorter since it will stretch
Yess thank you for this! I saw one of these but they wanted $300 and I cannot afford that rn 😭🫶🏽
Yea i still spent almost $100 on yarn but better than $300
it seems like working on the purl side makes keeping an eye on the tension more difficult. your tension is great, tho.
wonder if having 2-3 cast of stitches at the back of the neck could be nice for shaping.
and look up doing a slipped stitch edge for knitting. it makes a nice finished edge. it’s good for edges that are NOT being seamed together.
Oooh thanks! I am sewist so knitting is new to me. Ill look them up.
The tutorial was cute, but we could’ve saw it better if you were sitting on the other side. Looking forward to seeing other tutorials.
Thank you so much for your video your turn out really nice and very good tutorial 😊
Thanks so much 😊
I love love love this! One more video please but slow for me 😢😢😢😢😢
Working on it I promise
It was awesome catching a glimpse of your bracelet. Hey soror. Happy belated founders day. Love your content. I just found you today 1-16-24. Be infinitely blessed.
Happy Belated Founders Day to you as well. Happy I'm getting around in the algorithm.
Hi! Can you please make a slowed down step by step tutorial for this? i’ve watched this one and your other one that you did with the red yarn and i get the gist but im still missing something 😭 I’m very familiar with crocheting but new to knitting and finger crocheting/knitting so a more in depth and slower tutorial would be helpful please 🙏🏾
I will try!
Looks good. I can't wait to make one
Cant wait to see it! Please share
Thankyou sooo much for this video instant sub
Thanks for the sub!
Best explanation and method I’ve seen so far! ❤❤ how would I add a hood?
Love your sweater
Thanks!
Awesome tutorial! Thank you so much!
Glad it was helpful!
Yassssss you did that honey 🤌🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Thanks!
Thank you!! this helped me so much…Did you have any trouble with loops coming undone? or holes once you were finished???
The 1 time yes. I have missed a loop. I ended up just taking scrap yarn send tying the loop onto the row above
Great job
I want to see if you can make the crochet matrix hood 😊
Matrix hood, ill need an example
Hi, TH-cam will not let me paste a copy but if you do search TH-cam matrixx hood crochet
THANKKKK YOU A MILLION TIMESSSSSS💗💗💗💗🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼
Youre welcome
Super helpful, thank you!!!! ❤
You're so welcome!
I'm really glad I seen this video 😍😊
Yahh
Okay girl, back with ANOTHA one! lol
Thank you so much!
Love this am attempting it but my with is getting larger as I go even though I'm counting loops and watching my tension any suggestions?
Thanks for the video. Im having trouble with the width its getting bigger as i go though im watching tension and counting my loops any suggestions.
My suggestion would be make sure your loops are the sane width. Sometimes the bottom is tighter and we get looser as we go up
Thank you so very much❤
Amazing❣
Thanks 🤗
I wonder if you can add pockets ..
Hmmm Ive seen ppl talking about adding a lining. That I haven’t tried but if you can add a liner you can add pockets
THANK YOU THANK YOU💕💕💕
You are so welcome!
Okay, it's a little confusing but definitely better than the last.
So, there are three pieces that you're connecting?
There is one backpiece piece, two front panels and two sleeves.
Got it! I actually completed mine. It was so big that I doing need to add sleeves or maybe I'm just super short. Lol! It fit my husband though. I just made it my movie watching cardigan and started a new one that will fit me.
@@chatreesebeckett5528 oh great, so happy to hear it.
Do you feel like wearing it was a bit heavy like a wearing a weighted blanket
Definitely heavy!
Would it be the same process if you wanted to use a less chunky yarn?
Yes !
I’m trying to make one now…probably my 10th attempt!
Oh no! What issues are you having?
My measurements…I think. It’s like it’s too small and then too big. I’m making the back panel first. By the way, you’re amazing for replying ❤
@@cherenehunt3124 i started with the back bottom as well. I went based on half my hip. Which 25, So I went with 27. So there is a little ease and you know its going to stretch a little. So my 27” was about 23 loops wide at the bottom.
Thank you…gonna try this method and let you know!
Omg the best my sister has been beging me for one ,.
Hiw long did it take you to make it?
About 4-5 hours
Where did she get that bernat blanket extra thick yarn from which store.
Joanns Fabrics and amazon
Hey!!! I’ve started the journey!! I want mine to look similar to yours. I may have missed it but could you list the final dimensions for us
Hi My length ended up being 58", still a bit long. The sleeve was 34 from the neck edge and the Hem width at back side to side was 40. Ref I am 5'5 and 18/20.
@@SewingWithTAE perfect I did end up taking a few rows off so it wouldn’t be so long!! I’m in love already finishing now. it’s so warm. Thanks for easy to follow instructions 🥰
Heyy, I purchased the yarn using the link you provided and it’s not the same size as your yarn. Is it a big difference? It’s kind of hard to work with.
Ohh no, is it chunky extra thick yarn. Or also called blankets yarns. amzn.to/4d7Uns5
Hi, I’m struggling to make the loops after the initial row. I hope that makes sense. Are you able to help ?
Hello. I’m a new subscriber to your channel. I love the idea of the coat. I think I will make it this weekend. If you could please I am a size 1214 Yarn do you think I will need?
I cant say for sure. But I identify as a 18/20. And for the width I used half of my hip measurement. Which was 25" and I Made it floor length at like 55". So I used almost 5 of the 75 yard skein. So for a 12/14 I would say maybe at 22 width and length depending on your height or how long you want it. Maybe could get away with 4 of the bigger skeins.
I noticed when you got to the shoulders part too make the front, you did both sides differently. 12:35 and 15:34. That’s the only part that I’m confused about. Which one is the correct way ?
Hey! I created a Q&A, hopefully this helps. I tried to be really detailed. th-cam.com/video/ARU0zorwFSQ/w-d-xo.html
Quick question did you do 1 back panel and 2 front panels & 2 sleeves and then connected them ? Or just the back panel fold in half then start the sleeves I’m trying to make one for my daughter 😩 my brain 😂😂😂
Hi! Check the link in description for my blog post there are some good visuals there. But it the back panel splits into 2 panels at the shoulder to make the front panels. Then the sides are closed and sleeves are added.
Great video Watched several videos and started making one then I ran into your video… how many bundles of yarn did you use total? I’m 5 7 and doing the back panel, already on my 3rd bundle and it’s nowhere as long as yours. Also I see a lot of people doing the front panels separately that’s where I’m confused. You attached you fronts to your back ( didn’t do your fronts one side at a time then attached them)
It depends on how many yards are in your skeins. My second one is used close to 350 yard. Each skein had 75 yards. So I used about 5 of those. My 1st one was really oversized. The skeins only had 28 yards. I used almost 17 of those
@@SewingWithTAE thank you! I would love for you to do a video showing how you attached the front parts to the back . I watched it several times and still having trouble understanding how you added the fronts without knitting them separately then attaching them. It could be the angle you shot it🤦🏽♀️.Thanks in advance! How did you close the neck part ??
Have you tried it with the loop yarn?
No, I haven’t. But I saw it at the store.
Does the knit loosen up a bit when you wash it?
I actually haven’t washed these yet. I was hoping they would sell.
I have a question. Do you add the sleeve inside out?
I did, but someone suggested that Its helpful to hand knit where you can see the knits
How many rows did you do for the back
I am not that great at counting rows. So I like to measure them. My back length was about 50 inches.
Wait idk if I missed it but how many rows did you go up? lol I know 22 across or would it be 22 all up as well
I actually did not count how many rows up. I just measured it. I knew I wanted it about 50 inches so I just measured it as I was working.
@@SewingWithTAE okayyy thank you for that. I’m a seamstress as well so I was definitely measuring EVERYTHING 😂
I tried to follow twice got lost at 12:00 😭😭
Me too 😩
hi iam new here
Hiiii
Whew you lost me at about 13:15-14:00
Casting Off Your Hand Knit Chunky Sweater
I thought I was the only one lost 😭 Gotta watch it again and again 😂

I did a short thats a close up. Hopefully it’s helpful
I made a detail video, hopefully this is helpful. th-cam.com/video/ARU0zorwFSQ/w-d-xo.html
