It's been a couple of years since I first saw this video to try my hand at crocheting for the very first time, and now I'm coming back years later to make another one of these lovely cardigans. Your video makes it incredibly easy to follow, thank you so much for this pattern!!
you have such wonderful videos...I have been crocheting 45 years and I have always read patterns but after discovering you tube and I stumbled upon you videos I am in awe....you give us a brief history and it is so interesting ...its like having you at home on a crochet along....thanks again
I am so happy I found your channel. My friend is expecting her grandchild any day now and every sweater I started is way too beg for a newborn. This is perfect. And your video is very easy to follow. Thank you Karen
What a lovely young woman to allow me to be a part of your crochet gang! I could be your mom! My grandson is making his appearance end of June 2018. You've made my crocheting a real joy. You're very easy to follow, so, on we go to the body. Thanks again, dear one.
OMG .. I have actually made a baby cardigan .. Thankyou so much .. your tutorial is very easy to follow .. I actually managed to put a frill on the bottom . I am a beginner and you made this so clear to follow . I love listening to you .
Hello Karen, could you please share the pattern for the smallest cardigan with me. (Preemie) I'd so much appreciate it and thank you in advance. Your work is lovely!
Great video as usual and I love the chatting it makes the tutorial seem easier and time goes by quickly! Thank you so much for sharing this and all the neat history on crocheting...
Hi Karen, I've made this little cardigan following your pattern, you make it so easy to follow. I have used this pattern a few times to make them for my friends daughter who is expecting later this year, thank you again 😊
Hi Karen, I'm a pure beginner, so I've just been watching before I start making. What a lovely lady you are! It's felt like I've been sat with a friend, listening to her chat away. I suffer with depression after the death of my son and it was recommended I try knitting or crochet to pass the time, give my mind something positive to think about. After watching your video, if I can get my head around making the tiny cardigans, I would like to crochet and donate them to my local maternity hospital. It would make me feel productive I think, give a little something back to society and maybe help me along the way. I have been given tons of wool and needles for knitting but I have no crochet hooks, so I've just ordered a full set, hopefully they will be here soon. Can't wait to get started and I'll have a "friend" to chat away and keep me company while I learn! Thank you so very much for your great videos x
Wow...I think I was meant to come across ur comment today because I too suffer with depression and I also have suffered the loss of a baby boy...( today is actually his birthday 9/25 10/03)Crocheting has really been extremely therapeutic for me and I started crocheting after my sons death because the day he died I was given a beautiful crocheted blanket by one of the NICU nurses and up until that point I had never seen or really appreciated just how beautiful the art of crocheting was and that crocheted blanket is so very special to me because it was the very last thing he used and whenever I feel really sad or depressed I get out the blanket and try to remember the very short time he was here with me. I feel your pain.....no mother should ever have to bury their child. I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers🌹🙏🏽👼🏽
Hi Karen, I love you!! i love your crochet, patients to do tutorials, i can't read a pattern so really value your tutorials, you have a wonderful calming voice and manner i often answer you lol, and you make it look so easy, i love your story on the artifacts and touching buildings/items etc i do too, when you do get your permission please tell us!! and please keep your videos going xx
I know it's a bit late but I am crocheting along with you on this pattern. I'm ready for something new :) I have really enjoyed your history commentary on this video. History was my favourite subject at school too. Everything we do has to start somewhere, you are on about crochet therefore someone had to have invented it as it's not a recent craft. Same with knitting, so who decided to use 2 needles, someone else decided to use 4 needles and knit that way. Then there is the loom, same situation. You have now discovered this craft goes back centuries and even I am finding this fascinating. I do hope you will consider writing a book OR using your son's skills maybe a video book with picture/illustrations. I will definitely buy it but could I please have a signed copy lol. Keep 'em coming Karen, though I do know you have your hands full at the moment. Right, ready for the next section xx
Hello Karen, thank you for such a great and easily understandable tutorial!! I crochet your cardigan for my doll and it looks awesome!! However, how did you crochet the fancy collar shown in the very beginning of this tutorial?? Please provide the pattern, thank you!!
The pattern is really easy to follow thank you for sharing. I want to make a couple of these for a friend who just had preemie twins. How can I size down this pattern or do you have anywhere that I can view it?
hi Karen, I just love your videos, however for this particular project, i had work the cardigan from a chain of 39 with a 5mm hook, cause with the 35 chain i didnt have enough chain for the last corner... but your videos are awesome and keep me well entertained while i do my crocheting....i love your slipper tutorials as well...
Karen im watching your newborn cardie but I would like to do the biggeŕ size could you let me know how many sts I would need im not too sure of how to do it yet as I am new to cardies and you are so easy to follow thank you so much will keep in touchxxx
Hi Karen, love the tutorial, have made a few for our local maternity unit,but would love to make some preemie sizes, have you a pdf for this including the preemie sizes/ thanks
Hello Karen, I really enjoy your video's and your chatting. Its nice to know whats going on around the other side of the world. I am in Australia. When you're talking to us its like a little group gathering and I find you really entertaining and very honest. I hope you have lots of success with your video's and I hope you son does really well too. But Karen tell me it isn't true that Father Christmas isn't real ???? I'm shattered. Till next time kindest regards, stay safe and I hope your dad is okay. Bye for now.
Hi I have only just found you channel, I have watched your tutorial on little baby Cardie, beautifully describe, you are so talented, I wonder if you have any tutorials on how to crochet a graduation cap and gown for a little doll
hi Karen, thank you so very much for making these videos. I love being able to crochet a long and your chats are interesting as well. I watched the videos before starting and I don't see where you mentioned hook size. the sweater came out great except mine came out for a one year old instead of newborn😂😂😂
Hi Karen love you work it’s so easy to follow Could you let me have the pattern for premature as I crochet for the hospitals and ca not find one thanks in advance
i made one for my coming grandson but i want to make one for my god daughter who is 6-1year size can you help me i loved the pattern you ar sharing with us
Hi Karen!, I just found your channel & love it!, is there any way you could share this pattern in a preemie size, I've already made a newborn cardigan following along with you! Thank you!, I'm hoping to see a tutorial for the preemie size! it's so beautiful!
Hi Karen I'm new to crochet and want to make this for a new born and a 2 and a half yr old , My wool is DK baby soft yarn it looks thinner than yours will this still work , also how many do I chain for a 2-3 yr old one please . Many thanks Jacqui
Hi I not long ago when doing the loft out (again😀) I came across my doll that was in pieces arms legs hanging and her head was off, my daughter that was helping me said to get rid of her, I was horrified at that idea as she was my first ever memory, she was sat in a little pushchair at the side of my bed on my first birthday, I was apparently walking at 10mounths old and I've managed to use elastic and put her back together yahhh!!! I have followed Karen's patterns and knitted 'Rosebud' an outfit I am 69 years old. Totally love it so does my daughter. Karen your great I love your chatting catch ups. ❤️
Hi Karen, I have made a load of these for friends and they love them. My mum has asked me to make her one and I'm struggling to work out the chain/pattern to do it. Can you help?
Hi Karen I love all your tutorials. But I have a question for u. How to get to know the number of sleeves or how do we divide them. Should there be even number to divide them or what??
Hello I have spent a half a day trying to make a cardigan out of there I did not realize that these videos did not go together so you would know how to do the whole thing. Could you please do a complete video I'm so disappointed
According to the chart that you drew for the preemie cardigans, shouldn't this pattern start with a chain of 36 not 35?? Just wondering. I'm trying to figure out the pattern for larger cardigans. Thank you so much for your video tutorials! You're wonderful!!
I started with a chain of 35 on this tiny cardigan because I was working with the half double crochet and the finish was better 😊 thank you for watching my videos.
hi Karen. I found your chat very interesting and fun. we think a lot alike. As for me, I gave up on religion a long time ago. That was when I found God and the meaning to life. I am very spiritual. You are being drawn to travel to certain places, I really hope you can go. My ancestry began in England. Maybe one day I'll get to fly across that pond.
idk what im doing wrong :(((( I literally and going along with you and I can't get passed the first party cause when I get back to the beginning, I tend to only have 3 corners done :( im frustrated:(
I'm sorry I don't know where you have gone wrong, you must have missed a bit, maybe you would prefer to try this cardigan instead, it is sooo much easier ua-cam.com/video/UMbdx5mYS5c/v-deo.html 🙂 then maybe you can come back and try this one another time
I'm sorry, but I really can't help you without seeing what you have done. All I can say is begin again and keep pausing my video as you work. You will realise where you have gone wrong then you'll be crocheting away and soon have a beautiful cardigan :)
Hi Karen, I want to thank you for your wonderful videos and instructions and the lovely history lessons. I thinking have now completed 5-6 converse shoes for my future grandson. I,m so happy you have now issued this cardigan series of videos. I want to crochet a newborn one for him and have tried several others but am not happy with the outcomes. This one looks like the one I would like. I live in Richmond Hill Ontario, Canada. I have a grey baby yarn from Bernat-Softee Baby, 100%acrrylic. It is marked 3 - Light and recommends a 4mm hook on the package. How does this compare with your yarn? Should I use a 4 or 5 mm with my yarn and will it change the sizing? Please help as I really trust your advice. Hope your father is doing well and thank you for your videos. Louisa C.
