    Nice idea! Next time try to measure your bust instead of your shoulders, or you need a rectangle inserts under your arms, so the fit will be much comfortable. I love your finishing stitches

      🤯🤯🤯 YOU ARE ABSOLUTELY RIGHT. Why did I not think of that? It makes total sense because our width of our body around the bust is often bigger than length from shoulder to shoulder.
      So for a better fit, measure around bust and divide by 2 for the same calculation as what I did. And perhaps for people with high bust > bust, they should measure around the high bust then divide it by 2 for the calculation.
      Thank you for this suggestion. I’m pinning your comment so others can see it! 💖

    This is inspiring. I have a cardigan that is no longer sold. Im also plus sized and finding items that are quality and fit my style is difficult. I do not sew but am strongly considering learning to sew. I'd love to remake the cardigan i own and this video makes that task seem a little less daunting. Thank you!

    Don't forget to check out the description box for a link to a Google sheet with the formulas! Make a copy of the Google sheet, punch in your body measurements, and you'll get the sizes of the rectangles calculated for you! x

      @@ixm8189 Hello! I tried my best to understand by using Google translate. If you want to work in CM, you can use the conversion. 1" = 2.54cm. I usually use the unit converter in Google. Search "inches to cm". 😀

    This is super cute. I crocheted a cardigan with the same piecing idea, but I didn’t taper the sleeves so it has a sort of bell sleeve look. I’m thinking if I sewed this I’d add some hand crocheted lace around the body (instead of the collar) and the bottom of the sleeves. ❤️ I appreciate the simplicity of this, thank you!

      Ooo yessss! I was trying to show different ways of styling it with jeans, shorts etc. I guess it’d be cute with leggings and maybe a mini tulle skirt too!! Hehe thank you 💕
