Copying the pattern of this cardigan has been a work in progress for a long while. And tackling my first sweater pattern is not going to be an easy task. But I at least have a wearable cardigan thats super soft and lovely to wear that I won't worry about wearing out!

Engineering knits is a place for people who enjoy all kinds of vintage and antique crafts - from sewing to knitting, crochet to embroidery I like to try it all. I definitely have a preference for historical fibre crafts, and it is my dream to one day make an entire outfit from sheep to sweater. I hope you enjoy watching me and my favorite companion, Nutella, struggle through some fascinating projects! - Навчання та стиль
I've been rewatching a lot of your older videos lately as part of my cosy nightime routine, so I've seen this sweater a LOT. And I can't say how excited I am to finally see how you remade it! It's so beautiful.
I do the same thing. So soothing.
Me: pauses video to go preorder on Ravelry 🎉
Omg!!😮 June Cleaver wears a cardi like this in the show Leave it to Beaver. Love this sweater!
The pattern is a very basic two color tuck stitch pattern and you can also easily create it on your knitting machine ;) I can give you the instructions if you need them 😊
That would be so great! I‘d definitely give it a try if you could share the instructions!
Wow! I like seeing how you examine the sweater. I’m a knitter taught by the book “knitting without tears” by Elizabeth Zimmerman. It’s a completely different way to achieve fit without seams or patterns for pieces. You just need the stitch pattern, gauge, and finish measurements. I’d love to see you try her style I think it would bring a lot to your vintage examinations ❤❤❤ thanks for all your work, you are so careful and clear 😊
I have always loved that cardigan, can't wait to knit it . Thank you for all your hard work grading it I need a 42/44" bust so retro patterns don't normally work for me. 😊
Same!
I have SO been waiting for this. I just think it is the most attractive vintage sweater I’ve seen, so, yes, I will be looking out for your finished pattern. Good going and thank you so much.😊
Me and my dog watched this video, and my dog really enjoyed Nutella wearing the button band.
When this sweater goes live, i will be attempting it on my knitting machine!
I definitely had one of those scrunchy shirts. Constantly had to keep pulling it down to my waist because it just wanted to scrunch back up.
I think it'll be perfect in size after a good blocking. I also think crocheting a border around the button band and collar would help them sit better.
Arm ... Ärmel... never thought about that. But I rather use Arm :)
I have been admiring that cardigan since you first wore it! I love a good cardigan and the collar is a definite plus for me. Very much looking forward to your version, as a pattern.
Ahhhh I have been admiring this cardigan for so long and I'm so excited to hear you're releasing a pattern! Will definitely be getting a copy :3
This pattern makes me want to learn to knit.
I think I did see that other version in your last video. I liked it very much as well as this one also. Well done!😊
Can’t wait to take a crack at this one myself!! I have some purple and grey yarn that will be perfect!
I love this. But also after blocking the new sweater will be much much much more accurate.
I came here at 32 minutes how btw love your work❤
So excited about this pattern!!! It looks awesome and thank you for sharing your pattern drafting process with us. It's so cool that you were able to find an exact match for the stitch pattern in a knitting book from the era. It makes me think about the person who knit your original cardigan and whether they used that exact book and why they chose those colors.
Honestly, I kinda want to make this cardigan with rainbow bobbles. I think that would be so fun.
So fantastic! I would have loved to have participated in the test knit, but I can't knit that quickly!😂 Maybe next time! Thanks for sharing!
Oooo, I'll look forward to the pattern! 💜
Well done. Such a pretty cardigan.
I love your channel!! I can't wait until the pattern comes out Dec 1. I'm new to knitting but am excited about this😊
O, boy... I wish I had been able to be your test knitter!
I love how the bobbles look like Robin eggs
I love your channel you do get great projects
Excited for this pattern!
Absolutely lovely!
I’m so excited! I can’t wait to knit this sweater! I pre-ordered mine!!! ❤❤❤
Love it! So glad a pattern is in the works.
this is incredible. I love that you showed us through your process of figuring out the pattern design and construction and how you pull inspo from designs that fit the era of your vintage knits. but H O W did you get the perfect yarn colorways?! idk if I missed you talking about the process of sourcing the right yarn but it’s perfect!
I loved seeing this process, thank you for the lovely video! ❤
If you need a test knitter for a 38" bust id be willing to try it 😊
I'm watching on my TV and commenting on my phone 😊
Love this! So much time & patience to copy it, well done. I’m going to need this pattern xx
Love this pattern so much
Congrats on your first pattern!!!!
I' m so excited about this, I love it and want one myself for sure!
So cool to be able to copy your favorite cardigan !
Placket is the correct tern for the button band.
Well done! 👏👏👏
A very interesting process! Thanks for sharing! Something I find intriguing in the original cardigan is that the bobbles are offset on the two fronts when buttoned. I'm curious if that's a matter of construction technique or if the original button holes were accidentally added such that they offset the design. You mentioned that you placed the button holes in the same place, though, so I'd be interested to know if something else changed to make yours not offset.
I’ve never seen a button hole done for a knitted garment on a sewing machine like that before. My initial thought was that it would come apart but obviously it’s held up on your original sweater!
What if the ghost was the original cardi owner….. 👻
Well done ❤
It's adorable! Did I detect a different ribbing in the original? If so, what was your reason for switching to 1x1?
It looks cute. Looking forward to seeing your final sweater.
I wish that I could find someone to knit a sweater from the 80s for me. I had a red sweater with white sheep and a single black sheep.
That sounds like one that Princess Diana wore! I've seen reproductions for sale online.
@@perryh.-r.4419 yes I had one in the early 80s. I'm not able to find reproductions online. I'm more than willing to pay for the labor
@@bohemiansusan2897 you might want to check out "Warm&Wonderful" . As I understand it they were the ones who originally knitt the sheep sweater and they still sell it, but it's kinda pricey. If you are willing to pay that much I am sure it'll be worth it!
❤ grossartig 🥰
Kleiner Tip: ich stricke schon fast 40 Jahre lang beide Ärmel, andere Teile gleichzeitig auf 1 "Seilnadeln". Ich beginne wenn immer möglich den Knäuel innen. Früher steckte ich die einzelnen Knäuel in einfache Plastiksäckli und ein Gummiband locker drum. Später begann ich passende Ziploc-Beutel zu verwenden. Da ist es einfacher die passende Öffnung zu bestimmen. Lange Rede kurzer Sinn: die verschiedenen Knäuel verheddern, bei etwas zusätzlicher "Distanzkontrolle"😂, weniger, bzw sind (regelmässig) einfacher zu trennen. Vielleicht probierst du es mal aus
Magnifique!
So awesome
Lord Jesus please tell me that green top she wore has a pattern I need it in my life!!
I’ll be a test knitter!
Can you make on the Crocks something comfortable?
Where do you find the patterns for your channel?
I send you an extra ❤ for beeing german
I am wondering why sound quality has changed on your last two videos. Is UA-cam the problem? My other videos are not skipping and distorted??? I love your videos and will watch even with sound problems but if there is something you can do…. I am very interested in this particular stitch pattern. I love the sort of stained glass effect, or like ribbons pulled through, love it.
It turned out to be MY wonky streaming set up-
