Can you tell me if i want to use a faux fur yarn instead of mohair which is of 50g and 40m length, how much i will need?.. plz tell I'm having so much trouble in it that how many skeins i would need
I used ~260 grams, yarn length 220m in 100g. So you would need to count out the metric for your yarn. Its hard to say because there will be different gauge than using thinner yarn. Try searching yarn calculators online. But probably you would need a lot more than I did, about 14 balls. But I could be mistaken
first of all tank you, so I finished up until here 8:23, but I find the sleeve too short am afraid it will turn out short on me, what to do please? am a beginner, thanks in advance
I would suggest you to connect the parts in their places (if you are not all done yet) with stitch markers or any similar tool (safety pins could work as well) and check if the length is right for you. Because this is made to be oversize so the sleeves will happen to be lower than where your actual shoulder starts. If it still seems too short and you are just a couple of rows into the sleeve, just start over and add a few extra chains for the foundation chain. Adjust it to your liking. Hope it helps 💕
@@lerugicrochets okay thanks a lot 💕 if I may ask another question please, if I want the collar to be slightly tighter idk how to explain it like I dont want it be as wide as the sweater here, what should I do please? what change will be in the ribbing part please? (and will this affect the sleeve length please?) I will connect them with pins before i start connecting as you suggested but asking just so I would keep in mind 🙈
@@mehar5580 There would be an option to make ''the head hole'' smaller, is to skip the ribbing for the body parts at all. To be exact not to skip, but instead of sl st, just continue making hdc all the way. In this case you could make your collar just for your head to go through. There would be a reference for making it on another tutorial I have in my channel (the first one - boucle sweater), so the connection part would be more like the other tutorial. For this type of collar hard to make big adjustments. You could also try to thread a thicker elastic thread through it so that it would shrink more (for this way it may affect the length of the sleeves just a little bit). I hope you will find the best way to get there!
@@lerugicrochets that's great will watch and do it the other way, you're so sweeet thank you so much for helping me out really appreciated! hope you have a wonderful day/night 🤍🤍🤍
I don't know about you, but when I'm done with my crochet projects, they look short. It's very stiff and itchy, but when you wet block the project, it gets longer, less stiff, and definitely less itchy. So I think if you wet block the project It'll help your problem cause it definitely works with my projects.
I did exactly what you said on the sleeves but its super short while im 1.60cm myself so im not super tall but i need to add atleast 10cm extra on the sleeves i used a very big hook so i thought that the stiches made it even bigger then yours
The sleeves look short because the body itself is oversize so it gives dropped shoulders. This makes that the sleeves should be shorter than normal, but all in all it is regular length. If you attach the sleeve to the body with stitch markers just to see the outcome it should be ok. But yes, there also can be a difference in the size of the stitches. If its still too short definitely adjust to your liking! 💕 good luck🤩
I wouldn’t recommend using a washing machine unless it has a very gentle wool program. I always hand wash using lukewarm water and mild detergent in a bucket. Soak for up to 30 minutes, then gently squeeze with your hands for a while. Do not twist to squeeze the water out; just gently squeeze the water and in dry flat on a towel 💕
I am using italian yarn from a big cone, it was bought as discontinued. But alternatives for this could be: Alize Mohair Classic YARNART Mohair Trendy HOBBII Mohair Delight RED HEART Super Saver Brushed
Using milk yarn you will get different profile: it will be more lacy (if you use the same hook and loose tention) or adjust the ch numbers and st numbers to your liking and use medium sized hook (4-5mm) and you will get more solid sweater
There would be an option to thread the elastic string through. The same way as for the collar. Do it through more rows than one so it would be tighter. Hope it will help 💕
I got it of facebook marketplace. It was like discontinued yarn. But alternatives for this could be: Alize Mohair Classic YARNART Mohair Trendy HOBBII Mohair Delight RED HEART Super Saver Brushed
I believe if you add 5 extra stitches, it should make similar measurements. In general make looser loops so you might not see big difference between hooks
There might be a lot of variations why you didnt get the same outcome. Maybe your tension is different, maybe the yarn or hook is different. The given numbers are just guidelines, you can always adjust to fit you better 💕
I don't understand why, but I can't do it at all. for some reason, there are several loops less on the second row. although I know how to knit and this is not my first product, I did not find a common language with mohair at all...🥲
I know that mohair is not an easy yarn to work with. But try with some smaller swatches first to find the right path and to get to know the stitches better. Or work with double strand of mohair and cotton or acrylic together. Hope it helps to get along with mohair 🥰
this is really cute! Love the yarn colour as well!
Thank you!🥰
i love iiiit, thank you for the tutorial❤
how to do the body??
Same way as sleeve. Just different stitch count. You can see stitch and row count in this picture here 0:37
How but i dont get it
@@lerugicrochetsI wanted to do the sweater but may I ask how many yarn balls did you use
@ I used yarn in a cone, but all in all used about 260 g of it. The yarn has 220 m in 100 g.
@ so 300 grams would be enough for a xL?
Could you tell what's height, please?
to adjust the parameters

How will get the neck with out decreasing stitch
I am using an elastic thread for it to keep in shape and in place ☺️

hiii will this sweater be machine washable? whats the washing process going to be like?

@@lerugicrochets okayy thank you!!
What exact yarn did you use?
Mohair.
I am using italian yarn from a big cone, it was bought as discontinued. But alternatives for this could be:
Alize Mohair Classic
YARNART Mohair Trendy
HOBBII Mohair Delight
RED HEART Super Saver Brushed
How many stitches did you slip stitch into for the neck ribbing in the body?
0:40 here you can find all the stitch numbers I did. For this sweater did 4 slst for neck ribbing
@@lerugicrochets tyy
Is it ok if I use milk cotton yarn? I'm afraid it'll be smaller than using mohair yarn
Using milk yarn you will get different profile: it will be more lacy (if you use the same hook and loose tention) or adjust the ch numbers and st numbers to your liking and use medium sized hook (4-5mm) and you will get more solid sweater
what r the measurements (arm length/width, body length/width) in this tutorial? i wanna make this but im worried itll turn out too small
Arm length 67cm, width 28cm, body length 55cm, width 68cm. And it can stretch a few cm more
Can you write how many stitch you do for the body
36st +1 (4 of these stitches will be for the collar ribbing) for 29 rows
0:46
@@lerugicrochets thank u so much
is there any way you can make the ribbing thigher?
There would be an option to thread the elastic string through. The same way as for the collar. Do it through more rows than one so it would be tighter.
Hope it will help 💕
Thanks! ❤ Love the sweater
Can you tell me when you got your yarn?
I got it of facebook marketplace. It was like discontinued yarn. But alternatives for this could be:

Where do you buy that fluffy thread??
I bought this yarn cone of facebook yarn sale group. Can't find it anywhere else. But it is italian yarn brand Lagopolane
What size hook are you using?
10 mm 👌
May i ask how many stitches if i use 9mm hook?
I believe if you add 5 extra stitches, it should make similar measurements. In general make looser loops so you might not see big difference between hooks
@@lerugicrochets thank you ✨❤
i did the exact same thing my size is m I did 50 instead of 40 its way too small
