CROCHET SWEATER TUTORIAL FOR BEGINNERS | how to crochet an oversized pullover sweater EASY! 💫
Вставка
- Опубліковано 5 сер 2024
- This diy sweater was made to fit loosely around a men's size medium, so if you're aiming for a tighter fit you definitely won't need 5 skeins like I did! This crochet sweater is essentially made up of four rectangles that are sewn together, so I would say that this pattern is beginner friendly!

I love you. Thank you
Thank you sm 🫶🫶
@laurenbolin5200am not sure how to adjust but u could prob make it even more bigger one so it would be xl or xxl
@laurenbolin5200just make more or less rows and you can use thicker yarn aswell
Larger hook works too.
I never comment on vidoes but creating this sweater was my first ever crocheting project and thanks to your video it came our a success! The video was easy to follow and gave me alot of confidence in my abilities. My sweater isnt perfect but I am super proud. Thank you for the great tutorial. Definently subscribed!
Wow this is what I love to hear! I’m so happy that this project was able to inspire you and give you that boost of confidence in yourself!! I’d love to see your sweater all finished! 🤍
thats os awesome!! how long did it take you???
I had to study for uni exams so i only worked on it during study breaks so it took me about 3 weeks. However recently in my break i made another one and it only took me about a week!
@@marizelvandermerwe2980 hey thats really cool! thanks you for the inspo
Your comment encouraged me to give it a try ❤
I've come back to this about 50 times and now I'm done with my own sweater. Thanks a ton, your camera work and pacing were perfect for me to learn the craft easily. It did come out a bit narrow around the chest but i have a habit of pulling my loops a bit too tight. I'll be coming back for more project ideas in no time!
How long did it take u to finish this project?
@@febemelbasalno3443 I worked on it very on and off, finished in about 3 to 4 months.
You’re a great teacher! I have adhd, so it can be very difficult for me to learn new things, especially from the internet. But you made this so simple & I’m excited to put it all to use!
How did you get on? From a fellow ADHD-er who wants to make this! (Please let me know!)
I have adhd too. And this may be the ONLY tutorial that clicked with me!! I am excited to try again. Thank you so much Erin
oh wow, the slip stitch + half double combo was unexpected! really looking forward to how my sweater is going to look ^^
I have always made my sweaters with my own made-up pattern but it was really cool to see how other people do it. It is so interesting to see how other people hold their yarn and hook, I do it so differently. Many people ask me to teach them and they struggle with how to hold the yarn, I think I may show them this, maybe it will work better for their hands.
I have never seen ribbing made like that! I always crochet into back loop only. I'm definitely gonna try this technique out!
Just started making this! I've made the ribbed bands and am starting on the first body panel. So far, it's easy to follow! I did have to look up some videos on the front post stitch in more detail but that's cause I'm a total noob at crochet. I'll update as I go, but I really like this video! I'm excited to finish my sweater!
You taught me how to make a beanie in one of your videos and I am so thankful for that 😊 I gave it to my friend who's leaving our country to pursue his career ✨ Now, you've taught me something new again 😊 Many thanks!
Just what I was looking for! I always see like cropped or just shorter sweater patterns and I still consider myself a beginner and I definitely can’t just freehand so this oversized pattern was perfect
That is absolutely gorgeous! I’d like to make it into a cardigan for my son. He has never liked pullovers. Thanks for a new pattern. There aren’t many for guys out there.
Yes thank you, I appreciate that!! I’ll try to put out more unisex content!
Thank you. I’ve come back to this vid about 10 times now for a reference, I appreciate you and your passion. :)
I’m definitely going to try this one. You seem like you give easy instructions. Looking forward to making this.
My friend been asking for a sweater for a while, so finally decided to do it for them. Definitely need this pattern with a turtle neck!
Probably the best how to crochet something video around. Kudos and great gratitude! 🙏🏽 Never too old to learn a new stich..around the post! Excellent camera work 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽❤️❤️❤️
Wow thank you Norma!! I appreciate your kind words and support 🤍🤍
I LOVE this, I’m making it for my boyfriend for Christmas. This is the prettiest and most clear sweater tutorial, I appreciate that you added video of how the sweater looked on. I was wondering if it is necessary to use single crochet to do the underarm and side seam ? Or could I just use a darning needle like you do to join the two panels at the shoulders ?
i love the fit and texture of this sweater! I think it may end up being my first one!
Wow the sweater looks amazing!
Wow now this is the boyfriend sweater I have been looking for.....THANK YOU!!!
I just got some Tunisian Crochet needles. This pattern will be perfect for me. Thanks for sharing.
This is an amazing tutorial. Enjoyed making a sweater thanks to your video. Asante!
This sweater took me about 2 months to make (approx 60/70 hours) and I am quite a confident crocheter!
It took me about 1,700 grams of wool, so around 17 balls.
It looks amazing, the sweater is super warm. For the length of time it takes however, I don’t think I will be making it again.
Thanks! :)
It’s definitely a time consuming sweater, the stitch work is dense for sure lol
I have more simple patterns up now and about to release another ❣️
Thanks for this pattern thinking of doing this in peach and lavender😍
hello! i just finished making my sweater with this tutorial and it came out so wonderful. thank you so much for sharing ❤️
Hey can u just tell me how to start second row after the ribbing bcos it's missing from the tutorial
Awesome tutorial, thank you!
I’ve just finished making this. Such an easy to follow tutorial and I’m in love with the end product!
Ahhh thank you so much!! So glad you love it 💖
What a cute design! You did a great job explaining everything.
Thank you so much!! I hope yours turns out great 🥰
Just followed this to make my first ever sweater!!! Thank you for the lovely tutorial :)
Aww thank you for being here! 💖
This sweater is amazing! I've been looking for a pattern like this for a while now, and I'm so happy that I found it. I almost finished, but I got stuck at the collar part. I did alternate between the front/back post stitchet like you wrote, but it just didn't turn out like yours did. I would really love to get some help because I need to finish this as soon as possible.
Thank!❤ And I'm soory about my English, it's not my first language😅
Merci so much for your video because thanks to you I begin I have never tried to made my sweater I m so happy
I made my first sweater ! Your tutorial was so easy to follow. Thank you so much ☺️
Hi can a 5pc of 100g yarn do a (29 length and 22width) sweater? 😭
I had never made a sweater before but I made this as a Christmas gift and it turned out great! Thank you so much for the clear and easy-to-follow video!
How long you took to finish it?
@@nurhadaina6659 i worked on it intermittently for like 2 weeks and finished about 1/3 of it, then worked on it nonstop for a solid week after that to finish the rest!!
@@juliastowe8780 wowwww that's awesome
considering starting this week to have it done by Christmas for my brother 😄 seems to be a great pattern, good job
i'm sure it will turn out great! lmk if he likes it!
ohhh wow that’s soo cool! So tell me - have u finished it and how did it turned out?:)
@@annaluscher3646 Yes I finished it like 2 weeks ago ! hope it will fit well, I have to wait until Christmas day to know :)
how was it?
@@wig.snatcher well, he told me that he had already planned to wear something else that day so he hasn't even tried it 🙃 considering the fact that I see him twice a year, I'll probably never know if it fits well or not
I really love this tutorial!! It's easy to understand and short and you can make a lot of things on your own without having to check back in all the time
I have one question thoo or maybe I'm just a little bit confused....the neckline...on the one side I could easily continue and had no problems the other side i was not able to work it out like showed in the video without messing up the pattern....so i started from the neckline with a decrease and continue from there ...i don't it's a problem i hope i didn't mess anything up for later and yeah....maybe i just crochet different than you or didn't quite understand how you did it....but just in case anyone else had this problem - i think you you can resolve it like this
Took a week and half but I made Mine!! Gonna add a hood to it too!! Thanks so much for this beautiful pattern!!🖤
So quick!!
I'm currently crocheting this for my boyfriend, I'm switching up the colors by having the main color as hunters green and a stripe of Caron Cinnamon Swirl chocolate swirl color. It's coming out super well, I'm really happy with the drape the stitches create. I'll update after I'm finished and I give it to him.
I will be coming back here soon, i need to finish a previous prohect but i will soon be making matchinh sweaters for me and my girlfriend and this is a great starting point!!
this tutorial is so perfect! checking back once I have my materials ready :))
So how is it going?
I gotta look this over.. intriguing collar.. !
Trying this right now. Wish me luck! 🍀
I always wondered how sweaters were made! You are awesome I look forward in doing this❤
Aww thank you so much!!
This is so nice!!
This is lowkey some visual asmr 💚
Hi Erin ! Thank you so much for this great video. I was just wondering how you decreased on the collar ? I just can’t seem to understand ! 😊
Your model is absolutely gorgeous and the project is amazing and easy to

Hey can u pls tell me if I can use double knit acrylic yarn for this? Also how many grams of yarn are required for this pattern?
Bless you
What does count out 10 stitches at the center mean
Hi! Im thinking of making this sweater because its so lovely
This is so cute and love the colour 🤩 xx
Thank you so much!! 🤍
@@itserinb what color did you use ?
K, maybe I was a bit too ambitious, starting this sweater as a second ever crochet project) But! I'm pretty crafty, so I figured it out pretty fast (you just need a little patience!)
It's been two weeks and I'm halfway done, did the front panel and one sleeve.
I actually figured out how to do the shoulder part on the front panel, so the pattern doesn't get messed up, I started in the middle and after struggling for a couple of hours I did it!
I also struggled a lot with the first row of single crochets after the ribbing, for some reason it was always one loop too much or one too little haha
It's coming out great and really neat, I'm just a bit worried that it's not going to fit me (I'm an M to XL in dif types of clothes, but I compared the front panel to a sweater that fits me and it's about the same), BUT if everything goes south I'm going to try out blocking, maybe it'll help.
Thank you for the great tutorial! I'm very picky with my style, I don't like a lot of crochet pieces, but I sure as hell like this pattern!
Thank you for sharing. It is a lovely sweater. I am sure many people have asked you this question before... how to adjust the size of the sweater? I do need to make it much better for myself. Thanks ~
This sounds interesting! I'm currently working on preparing and spinning an alpacka fliece and I have about a kilogram of carded wool to spin as well so I'm looking for patterns that seem easy to adjust for different sizes and threads
it looks stunning !!!!
So kind 🤍
Such a beautiful project, I do have a question regarding the neckline- it looks like you’ve worked some decreases throughout to allow it to lay flat against the neck and collar bones… is this the case, and if so could you perhaps describe how you achieved the specific shape in your collar??
I hope I’m not intruding on your trade secrets, I just struggle with understanding what stitches have been used when I look at finished products… still a student 😉
Thank you!
THANK YOU SO MUCH!!
love your work ❤ Im gonna make one for my boyfriend (I'm a newbie but can wait to make this 😆) and he's around large extra large size. Pls guide me on how to adjust this to fit his size, thanks a lotttttttt
I lobe it! Thank you
Hello me lovely, great video and tutorial, it was good to see that you had the camera in close , so that we could actually see you go around the front post and back post, it makes it so much clearer. I am a visual learner and that video was visual. Thank you. Have a good weekend. Keep safe and be lucky 💞💞💞
this makes me so happy to hear that this diy could help you create something!! thank you for supporting me and leaving such a kind comment 🤍🤍
i was trying to find a tutorial for this and when i saw the thumbnail i was like omg wait i know that street with the tunnel and then i clicked on the video and i know the mall you filmed it at and now i’m like totally freaked out 😭
I just finished making it, and I love it! The tutorial size was the perfect size for my dad whom I'm giving it to! It's my first crocheted sweater, and the best tut I've ever seen!
hi! just wanted to ask what size your dad is? planning to make it for mine this christmas but i'm not sure if it would fit.
@@thejessicakes7973 My Dad's a size Large Mens
@@katie.gartner thank you so muchhh! was it just right for him or was it still slightly oversized?
@@thejessicakes7973 It was slightly oversized, I'd consider next time making the sleeves a little shorter
oh yay! this makes me so happy!!!
Im looking for tutorials since i havent done this before and i want to do a cosplay, this will help me alot! Thx❤
Hi! Quick question- How wide are the sleeves in inches? I work with a different yarn and I’m kinda stuck at this point
Beautiful color. Beautiful loops. Gonna try to make this for my boyfriend.
Same here. 😂😂😂
This tutorial is really beginner friendly! Will try making this!! Can I know how many grams of yarn you used for making this sweater? Thank you so much! 🤩🥰
Ok erin you got me, its the third video i'm watching and i have to accept what can't be changed : i love your work. I'll try it but with a V-shape collar cause i'd watch him wearing v-necks all day... 🤤
I love the stitch anthe sweater came out fabulous
Thank you! 💓💓
I've never touched any sort of crocheting tools in my life, but I really want to start to learn. This sweater looks so comfy and since it's easy for beginners then I'll try it once I learn how to make a square 🤦♂️😂
It’s definitely very comfy!! I hope you decide to make it 💓
I will totally try this 🌈😍!!!!
yes awesome!!
I love this sweater!! Is there a written pattern and sizing chart if we want to make it smaller or bigger?
If I need a 3 or 4x n men, what r the chains for that?
@@NSynCreatively just measure the size of the piece you have already sweater / pullover / jumper whatever you know fits in the desired size and measure along with making stitches, so what i do i measure the wide of the example piece so i know i need it to be 21” wide so i just make chain until i reach 21”
Hey Hi there.
:)
This video needs more than any of our compliments ✨😇. It's super amazing and very easy pattern. The only doubt I have is in the second row do u start with the SS or HDC?
Thank you for the great tutorial! Quick question: the number of stitches are multiples of 2 i.e. even number? Thanks again! 😊
You're my first crochet project and I'm enjoying it so far though I tend to ran out of yarn so fast (lol, feelin' like a pro already) but yeah, I'm totally having fun doing it since yesterday and I promise to share this one to you when it's done. 😉🫶🏻
yesss I need to see it!!
I'm currently crocheting this as a birthday gift for my bf 😍 can you make a tutorial for men's cardigan? 🙌
I can’t wait to make this sweater! I have so many projects lined up right now and have just added one more. How would I make the neckline smaller for this sweater? Would I just start the decreases for the panels closer to the center? Thank you!😊
Yes exactly!!! Or even decrease on the inner corner even less than I did, it won’t taper off as much 🥰
just started this last thursday (october 28th) so hopefully its done by november’s end!
Hi there!
I am new to crochet a sweater like this. But I’m gonna try making one with watching this video.
How do I change size to small?
Do I have to calculate how many stitches less I have to do?
Thx
all i was ever able to make was a scarf or just a piece of fabric (and one time a mini turtle) but i really wanna try and make a sweater, so this was very helpfull!! I wanna make one with a combination of tunic crochet and regular crochet, so well see how it goes and trust the prosses i guess
This is amazing thank you so much I’m about to start trying it now as a crochet beginner :)) just one question can I use a yarn size light 3?
I love this sweater but I'm wondering if to count your ribbed rows does each rib count as one row or two?
Thank you 💙
Wow. Thanks a lot for the tutorial. Quick question: what’s the width of the sleeve. I plan to make it with a different yarn size
Hey can you please let me know the final measurements of this sweater?? Looks amazing thank you!
Hello I am a 14 years old boy from Germany and I thank you so much for this nice tutorial. 👍
This is my first big project and I absolutely love the pattern and the tutorial!
But I have a quick question: When I continue with the left side of the neckline of the first panel, should I start with an increase? Because I am a little confused
I made this and had to increase the width of the arm panels to give more room in the shoulder area of the sleeves, and ended up decreasing every other row of the neckline to give it more of a mock neck look
hello mx erin! i decided to make your oversized sweater pattern as my first crochet project ever (lol how ambitious). however, i wonder why my ribbing has gotten so long (up to 29 inches); so, i wonder if you used cun (chinese inch) in measuring your sizes or just inch in its imperial unit? i’m worried because i never really got to gauge how long this is going to be and i’m currently on my 45th row on my first panel 😩 (a rookie mistake ig). thank you !! :>
Love!
FINALLY A PATTERN FOR ONE MY SIZE!!!!!!!
Let’s goooo
I'm halfway done with mine!!!!
Man like your amazing at this like you did the panel in just one sitting
Im making this for my fiancé
I've already made the 2 panels and just have the neckline and sleeves to be done.
Thanks for the amazing tutorial
You got this!! Good luck 💖
This is the best beginner friendly tutorial I have seen on UA-cam. Though while making this sweater what I would do is, add the increase at the bottom after slip stitches on the front and back body so to create a more elastic look just like you did for the sleeves. Thankyou for uploading this!
I’m going to make a fred weasley sweater so this pattern will be perfect
Wow I never thought of that but it definitely screams Fred weasley 😂😂
heyy i have a question, the width of my panels is 69 stitches, so for my back panel how do i adjust the number of stitches when i start my decrease? i assume it wouldn't be 32 stitches like yours because mine is more narrow, i just don't know how to adjust it, thank u in advance!
I’ve been crocheting for a year or so and a big project like this is a little intimidating still but I’m gonna try!
You can do it!!
This looks great!! If you wanted could you just do single crochets for the whole thing instead of the slip stitch and half double?
Yes definitely! I used two different stitches to give the sweater some texture but it would be simpler and must quicker to just do HDC or DC for the entire sweater!
Good video and explanation , i love your voice , shooting 🧖🏻♀️ , maybe make more crochet ideas? skirt ? bucket hat? crop top ☺️❤️ i support u sis lovee ❤️❤️
Yesss thank you so much!! I have a bucket hat tutorial going up tomorrow, and I’ll be working on some more crochet cardigans and dresses soon 🥰
I love the result ! I'm about to make the sweater but I have one question : on the third row, do we have to do a slip knot on top of a half double crochet, or a slip knot on top of a slip knot ? (and does it make any difference for the pattern ?)
Hi girl!! Yes you have to do a slip knit on top of the HDC! If you place the same stitch on top of itself the pattern will come out very different and it’ll also change the size/rows of the sweater. Start every row with the slip and finish every row with the hdc!!
@@itserinb Thank you so much for your answer ! i'm gonna do that right now :)
@@itserinb Should the ribbing for the arms end on an odd number? I had an even number similar to how you did it the tutorial, but adding those increases on the sleeve made an odd number of stitches. So instead of starting each row with a slip stitch and ending with a half double crochet stitch, I had to alternate how I started each row by starting with a slip, then starting the next row with a half double, etc. Great tutorial! Thanks!
Oh nice to know that...🤔
Woahhh I wanna learn this one day :))
Yes you definitely can!!! You got this 😋
