Thank you so much! Another visual learner that was so hoping you would be back with a video! Do you think I can use a thick and quick size six yarn? I am in Canada and can’t locate that one locally…but my daughter loves the softness of the thick n quick.
Yes you can! Just check your gauge but it should work fine!
thank you ❤
You're welcome 😊
Thanks got it 🧶🌹🙏🏿👏👍
I might just be reading/hearing this wrong, but for the cuffs, you go from 13 row ends to 26 stitches. Are you doing 2 single crochets matched up with each 1 row from the original panel?
How many stitches for a PLUS size
How many chains for a Plus size
Just received my pattern. I am 5-4 and 200 lbs. ( i know right) ... I may need some help regarding sizing... width wise. any suggestions?
Go with the standard size and if needed do one round less on the cuffs to shorten the arm span. 🥰
I just love this Kocoonigan and I have wanted to do it since I first saw it. However, I am brand new to crochet and I haven’t done anything like this before so I have a question.
I am making the standard size and I had to make do with the yarn I already had. I have Lion brand bulky 6, Premier brand bulky 5 for the secondary color. I also do not have a #12 hook so I am attempting a #10. I have already learned that the tension on the secondary color needs to be supper loose to accommodate the size difference in the yarn. All that mess aside I am confused because I did 45 foundations and it’s measuring at 36 inches. It doesn’t look wide enough so I am thinking I am either not reading the pattern (the one in the link) correctly or my “minor “ changes aren’t so minor. So I guess I needed to ask if I can alter the hook and yarn like I have.
Thank you again for such a wonderfully beautiful project
I’m so excited you are giving it a try! But yes, those changes aren’t very minor! A size 10 vs a 12 mm hook is going to make a huge impact on your gauge (number of stitches per inch) using a smaller hook will give you smaller stitches. There are ways that you can work around that BUT since you are newer to crochet I would suggest getting the larger hook to follow the pattern. I don’t want you to feel overwhelmed on your project!
@@lifeandyarn ok, so I went to five different stores looking for a #12, the closest I could get was 11.5 😤 and it cost me 13.99!!
Can you tell me how many inches for length and width I should be looking for on a standard size pattern? If I knew that measurement I feel like I could make this work. It’s going to be denser than yours, but it’s for Northern Canada use so it’s a good thing to be warmer lol.
Ugh so frustrating! But the 11.5 should get you close…if you scroll way down in the pattern past the instructions I do have a diagram with all of the panel measurements before and after seaming…for the standard size you will need to hit 45” across, this goes wrist to wrist…there is quite a bit of stretch with this stitch so I wouldn’t make your row 1 that long because it will open up with more rows. I’d say follow the row 1 instructions and see how close you are to the 45”, if needed add a few extra making sure you keep an odd number for your total. 💕
@@lifeandyarn thank you very much for the help!💕 it’s really appreciated
It would be good idea to show the pattern on the lighter yarn for better visibility, there are no contrast colors.
You can try turning up your screen brightness to see the contrast more, I hope that helps.
Thank you for the pattern and tutorial! I'm a bit confused because you kept saying to have an odd number for your FDC but the petite size says to have 68. Should that be 69 or is the petite size the exception?
😱 petite should be 67! That’s a type let me fix that! Thank you!
Thank you!!!
O loving u each video thanks thanks 🙏🏿🎈👍🧶🌹❤️👏
❤❤❤
Can someone post the blog address, please!
It’s in the description but here it is again 🥰 lifeandyarn.com/easy-chunky-crochet-cocoon-cardigan-sweater-free-pattern/
Hi there , would someone be able to help me ? I'd like to know if I can make this with a size 6 super bulky yarn ? Thank you so much .
I'm using #6 super bulky premier chunky cotton on a size 12 hook. It's coming out nice
@@irmagarcia4012 thank you for your reply . This was very appreciated! ❤️
There is no free pattern. The link leads you to purchase lion brand yarn and the pattern is included in the price. Just say that up front.
Yes there is. I linked it twice. One well above the link to the kit and then again below the link the the kit and individual pdf. Here it is again if you are having trouble finding the correct link. lifeandyarn.com/easy-chunky-crochet-cocoon-cardigan-sweater-free-pattern/
@@lifeandyarn there are many pop ups, ads, before you can scroll down to the non pdf pattern. But that’s out of anyone’s control I’d suspect. Please forgive me if my comment came out curt. You are amazingly generous with your content. You’re very talented and I appreciate you.
Yes the pattern is there look under free pattern
I agree, the Lion Brand website makes it look like you have to buy the yarn to get the pattern but if you click on the pattern button, it does give you the pattern without buying the yarn. I went ahead and bought the yarn anyway because it’s hard to get good selections of any yarn that isn’t the standard size 4 at my local craft stores. I’m really liking the colors I got (saffron for the main color and rose water for the other color).
