This is my type of garment to make, You Had me at “No Seams” I Love working garments all in one piece! Happy Holidays 😊
I'm working on this pattern right now and it definitely has seams, just not on the sides. The shoulders are sewn to the back, and then the sleeves, collar, and pockets are sewn on separately. I haven't quite gotten to that step yet, but they look pretty simple. She goes into a lot of detail on exactly how to seam all the pieces together in part two of the video (it's not on UA-cam yet, but it's posted on her blog).
Hello!
Thank you so much for this tutorial! I LOVE this cardigan! The yarn is sooo comfortable and the colors are beautiful!
However, I must warn beginners that this is not beginner friendly! There are too many steps and one too many pieces to sew onto the garment!
So, to you beginners out there, for your sanity😁, I'd start with a very simple cardigan pattern (using this yarn) to practice and then come back to this one.
It will definitely be worth it!
I love cardigans! And have been crocheting up a storm lately! I can’t wait to get started on this, I think I’m going to order the kit, and get the Fireside color. The colors are so rich and pretty!!
Love this cast on. Will use it for my next project. Looks like it will make the foundation row a little more flexible than doing the standard chain row beginning (hope that made sense). The cardigan is beautiful. Thanks for the video. L
Absolutely my favorite stitch... HDC. For looks and speed. I like that it's got some depth for warmth. DC is off my list for blankets and garments. No warmth and too stretchy. I've always favoured HDC for looks as well. Can't wait to make this for ME. Thx.
Lynda Thomas 💖💖
I love the look of it too. And I really love the speed of it! You're right - the HDC helps with the warmth, which is necessary for blankets AND sweaters! Have fun with this one. :)

I love this yarn, it's soft and drapes beautifully. I love the sweater, definitely trying this.
Yes, it is SO soft and I feel like it has the perfect drape for a comfy sweater. I'm so glad you're going to make it!
I've never made a Cardi before and this is perfect timing! I've been wanting to use that yarn to make something with. I'm excited to get the yarn and get started. Thanks for the pattern and video.
Tonia Deakin i have started making ine
Yes, this is the perfect beginner cardigan! It's so simple. You can totally do this!
😨😵😵🤐
I'm so excited to make this! I just purchased the kit from lion brand in fireside. Love your tutorials. Thank you!
Awesome, Diane! I'm excited for you to get your kit. Have fun crocheting!
This is such a nice shape! Great tutorial, too. That yarn is absolutely beautiful 💙
I love this cardigan. I have been wanting to try a cardigan that works the front and back panels as one piece. I’m going to make this one for my mom. Thanks for the tutorial.
Liz Salazar so true
Great, Liz! I'm glad this one came along for you. I'm sure your mom will love it!
I am definitely going to make this! So gorgeous ❤️❤️
Thank you thank you thank you for making this in all sizes!! 🤗♥️
You're welcome!
Thanks to you I finally understand how to do the foundation row. I love this pattern. HAPPY HOLIDAYS!!!
Beautiful pattern! 💟 Cardigan are in fashion this winter.👍⛄
Outstanding! So simple and the foundation builds quickly with the beginning on this video.
Yes, it does! It's quick and easy. :)
I am so excited to make this! Thank you sooooo much for the video...helps me a lot! I really love all your stuff!
Hi Diane - thank you so much for the kind words! That means so much to me. I'm glad the tutorial is helpful for you. Happy Crocheting!
You are so talented and humble too. Wishing you every success!
I love this cardigan tutorial. Thank you. I think we are missing the sleeves but I will try to follow the written pattern.
I think its a 3 part tutorial. The other vids are probably on her video page
Exactly what I’ve been looking for! Thank you so much!
I just learned how to crochet by using UA-cam in April. This is my first adult sweater I"m attempting and I can't wait!
Hi Cher - welcome to the crochet crew! I'm so excited to hear that you are making your first sweater. This is a great one for beginners!
It's very pretty, thank you.
I made this cardigan in Small for my 22 yo daughter. Super easy to follow. I used the comfy cotton blend in color Chai Latte. The sleeves seemed super long. My daughter (5’5” will definitely have to roll the sleeves up. I ended up putting a single crochet around the collar and using a reverse (crab stitch) as a final row to give it a “finished look”. Also, with the pockets being side entry, I stitched up the bottom ribbed edge about 2” so nothing can fall out (mainly phone and keys). I would love to share the finished product with you but I can’t see where I can add a picture with this comment. Thanks so much for sharing your pattern. I was so happy with the final result.
I really enjoyed this tutorial. Will you please clear up something for me, I'm right handed, will the wrong side of my garment(s) always have my starting tail (where the foundation chain starts) on my right hand side. Thanks a million.
Excellent tutorial thank for sharing and taken your valuable time to make tutorial so successful for me as a beginner thank you once again ...
Me enamoré! Hay manera de traducirlo al español ? Porque no se nada de Inglés! Gracias y felicitaciones !
Very nice 👍
Thank you!
I love this sweater. Is there a part 2 video somewhere?
Hi there - here is the link for part 2. Glad you like it! :)
makeanddocrew.com/how-to-crochet-long-sleeve-cardigan-video-part-2/
This look so easy, I am going to try this, because I love it.
Natural fibers for the win!
Yay I was very excited when I saw the pattern and I’m usually pretty good reading them but your tutorials are awesome and couldn’t wait to try this. I hope I can find this yarn at JOANN in Asheville it’s closer to where I live. The Walmart has this in a couple stores but not enough skeins and no one keeps up with their craft section well. But I’ll find it somewhere. Ty for the tutorials ❤️❤️
Hi Jeanna - thank you for the message! I am so glad you enjoy the tutorials. I hope you can find the yarn too! This cardigan will definitely be worth the search. :) Thank you for the kind words, and good luck with the cardigan!
Por favor,traduce al español,me encanta
I would love to do this using Caron latte cake? Do u think it's a good idea? Please advise
Good working 🎉🎉🎉
I am needing help with the staycation cardigan. I wish there was a video for it!
I just ran out of this yarn, I made a different cardigan :( :( Now I need to travel to the states again and buy some more!
Yes, come on over! :)
Dónde puedo encontrar las instrucciones en español?? Me encantan todos sus tutoriales y estoy suscrita a su canal aunque no le entienda nada 😥😭
My gauge is off with a 6.5 I want to make this sweater will I be okay using a 6 mm and would the pattern and stitch count be the same
Thank you for sharing! I habe struggled with cardigans and now I can make one! Can I use any kind of yarn! And I'm a size 1x...
Hey Liz, you can def make this one! You can use any type of category 3 yarn, just make a gauge swatch to see if you need to adjust your hook size. (You can find the pattern gauge listed in the free written pattern linked in the description above.) :)
@@makedocrew1717 thanks!
Love the cardigan, will regular dk #3 work or do I need that yarn.
Thank you! Most category 3 yarns should work, just make a quick gauge swatch to see if you need to adjust your hook size to meet the pattern gauge (which is listed in the free written pattern linked in the description area above.) :)
@@makedocrew1717 Thanks I'm working on it now
Me encanta tu canal y Ya Me he suscrito! El problema es que no entiendo tu idioma, ya que hablo en Español. Podrías poner los subtítulos en Español? Gracias y un saludo! 😃
Saludos, hermoso trabajo. Por favor subtítulos en español.
Can this be made with a medium weight yarn also?
Joann’s or Michaels, neither sells that LB cotton yarn inSE Michigan. Has a little stretch to it, right?
I have never made a garment before but I am going to try this. Is your wool dk or Aran? We don't have wool with numbers just type. You explain everything very thoroughly and I have subbed. Tfs 😘😊🤗
Hey! It's a Dk weight yarn. Checking yarnsub.com might be a good way to see what yarns you can get your hands on that are similar to this yarn (Lion Brand Comfy Cotton Blend) :)
My video stops before attaching the second front and there is no video on how to do the sleeves. Does one exist? The next video I see is Part 2 for the collar. Thanks. Love the pattern!
Hi Carol - there was a bit of an issue when uploading this video to UA-cam initially. Here is the link to the full video tutorial for Part 1. :)
ua-cam.com/video/bLoSQifTCDY/v-deo.html
I am sewing cardigan together now. I used Lion Brand Comfy cotton Spring Meadow. I will have quite a bit left over. Would this 50/50 cotton be ok to use for wash or dish cloths? Thank you for an excellent pattern and instructions and easy to understand tutorial.
Dawn Kurtz I think a washcloth would be really nice. Soft and absorbent. Maybe you should do a matching scarf or hat!
Love the color..looks too hardwhat color?
How do I modify this pattern if I use super chunky yarn size 6?
Hey Rosario, I'm honestly not sure because I've only designed it with a category 3 yarn and using a cat 6 would change the pattern entirely. My best suggestion would be to look at the schematic measurements in the ad-free PDF and use those and your own gauge swatch to figure out how to meet the given measurements. :)
😍
Forgive me for asking some basic questions but, as a newby... I have to ask. At about 2:00 you start your chain by putting the hook over the yarn, and at about 6:22, you start the stitch by putting the hook under the yarn and hook the yarn... saying that is a 'yarn over.' Is there a right or wrong way to approach the yarn to start a stitch? Thanks for the great site and pattern. I'm hoping to learn a lot here.
Hey! Great eagle eyes! You know, honestly, I just learned one way of yarning over that isn't very typical and sometimes I struggle to break the habit and do it the typical way. I try to be consistent in my videos so as not to confuse people, but I think you caught me in one of my quirks. All that said, it doesn't make any difference to how it looks, so just carry on the way you know how. :)
How would you make this project if you need 4x or 5x?
Has anyone made this in 100% cotton I have some Bernet speckled kind I would love to use????
how many stitches did you do your size please thanks
Hi. This is my first attempt at a sweater. My starting chain was 134. . I’m following guidelines for the size medium. I’m petite and have 36 bust. I’m using the same yarn as in pattern and k hook. After working many rows it seems too wide. It measures 50 inches wide. I am on row 27 and need to do 41 rows before the decrease begins. Just feels like it’s gonna be huge. Any suggestions?
Love this cardi I thought the pattern was free
Hi Nicole - the pattern is free. If you click the link in the description box below the video, it will take you to the blog post. Scroll down until you see the black title "Up North Beginner Crochet Cardigan Free Pattern" and the pattern is below that. Hope that helps!
Got a question can u use any 3 weight yarn I don't have comfy yarn but have baby weight
Cantik banget
Por favor subtitulos en español
Me gustaria q tenga subtitulos en español x favor!!!
When I click on the link to get the "free" pattern whether from this site or from Ravelry, I do not find a free pattern. I find the link to pay for the ad-free pdf. Am I missing something?
I could really use some help. this is my 1st attempt at something that isn't a blanket. so I accidentally made the length really long and it's way past being able to just unravel the extra rows so my question is how would I go about making sure my collar is gonna be long enough
would this still work with a different type of yarn??
148 st for Lg
👍😍😍😍iwll do
HELP!!! i started this tonight as I love it. Im using ARAN wool and 6.5mm hook and followed 1X size....after doing 2 rows it is going to fit an elephant!! - its massive...holding it round my waist - advice please :-)
Hey Jennifer, well no elephant deserves your handmade sweater! ;) Have you made a gauge swatch? I'd recommend doing that before diving into the full sweater so you can see if you need to adjust your hook size for the yarn you're using. The gauge is listed in the written pattern which you can find here: makeanddocrew.com/up-north-crochet-cardigan-pattern-for-beginners/
My gauge is right, and I had many rows done then also realized it was huge ...I think the sizes must be off. :(
Where is the free patton for this please ? Cant find it.
I'm struggling with the hook size, is that correct 6.5?
Has anyone else had to use an I hook instead of a K to get the correct gauge? If I use my I hook will the sweater material end up looking different?
Nope, whatever size you need to achieve the pattern gauge is okay. So much of crochet is personal and related to how tightly you naturally make your stitches, etc, that checking your gauge and adjusting your hook is the perfect way to start every pattern!
Diane Toma
I've had to do 3 swatches. First with a 6.5mm (K), then a 6 (J), and just now a 5.5 (I). To get the correct gauge I'll need to use a 5.5 (I) also. I'm mostly a knitter, but do enjoy doing a crochet project, usually toys, every now and then. Saw this lovely cardigan pattern and I couldn't resist! Thanks to the Make & Do Crew for the pattern and the tutorial! : ) I can't believe my tension is off by two hook sizes! When I knit I always seem to make the gauge with the recommended sized needles.
Lynn Cameron thank you so much!
Make & Do Crew thanks!
@@dianetoma7820 Didn't want you to think you were the only one who needed an I hook to get the proper gauge. lol
So how many stitches would you make for an 1x? I’ve never made a cardigan
Hi Destany - if you click on the link to the free pattern above, it will show you the sizes and stitches needed for each size. Hope that helps! :)
I can't find the working in the round for the sleeved
Hi there! I believe I may be missing a part or not seeing it in the pattern if anyone know how much yarn in total (or skein amount) would be needed for this patter please let me know! Thank you all very much & happy crocheting !!!
Hello - you can click on the link to the free pattern, and within the "supplies" list, you will find information about yarn amounts for specific sizes. Hope that helps!
Make & Do Crew such a vague answer not helpful at all when people ask questions they expect direct answers why waste time writing such a long reply wen seriously the answer is how many yards u need and the weight size for each size. If they wanted to sit there and do research they wouldn’t ask. Duh. & if u don’t like answering questions that are silly then don’t answer at all I just don’t understand when someone asked for help why u sent them to look it up themselves. I find that stupid
I tried to get the pattern no luck
Its 2.99 it's not free
I can't find how to do the sleeves it's not on vid 2 either
How many skeins of yarn??
Hi Emma - that will depend on what size you make. If you click the link for the free pattern in the video description box, you will find more info about the sizing. Hope that helps!
Sadly can't seem to find the FREE pattern to go along with this . Your video is great to follow but being a beginner I would have loved to learn to read a patterna adn to follow along
makeanddocrew.com/up-north-crochet-cardigan-pattern-for-beginners/
How many row did you do on the decrease part I have the pattern but I don’t understand I’m doing the 2XL I don’t see it
2xl masher I whant
am I missing something? why there are two videos of part 1? which one should we watch as part 1?
Hola
🙏 por favor…. Pon los subtítulos en español
💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕
is the free pattern $4?
How many grams of yarn
How many skeins
Hi there - how many skeins you need will depend on what size you are making. All of the sizing information can be found in the free pattern. Hope that helps!
I was trying to download the pattern an ot kept trying to charge me
Hi Sadiyyah - if you click on this link for the pattern in the description box below the video, it will bring you to the blog post. There, you will have the option to purchase the downloadable ad-free PDF of the pattern, or you can scroll down and you will find the free pattern within the blog post. Just scroll until you see the black title saying, "Up North Crochet Cardigan Pattern for Beginners Free Pattern - Part 1," that is where you will find the free version.
How much yarn does it need to be made
It will depend on what size you are making. You can click the link to the free pattern, which shows how much is needed for each size.
It says the pattern is free but takes you to a page to buy it! That doesn’t seem right to me.
Hi Christine - if you click the link in the video description box above, it will indeed take you to the free pattern on the blog. There is also an option to purchase the ad-free, printable PDF.
How do I get the free pattern for this? It says Free but when I try to download it it says $2.99. What’s up with that?
Hi Lena - if you click on the link to the free pattern in the video description box, it will take you to the blog post with the pattern. Just scroll down the page until you see the pattern. The printable, ad-free PDF is optional for $2.99.
I have a question. I have the worsted weight 3 ply yarn it’s 100% acrylic yarn would it still work with this?
Yeah! I think it'll work great. Just make a quick gauge swatch and compare it to the gauge listed in the free written pattern (linked in the description) to know if you need to adjust your hook size to meet the gauge using your yarn. :)
Make & Do Crew yes ma’am it says to use a 5mm hook but that will be to big for that small yarn lol
What's the hook size?
Ana Sada Farres I think she said K.
Please, im from brasil, add legend in portuguese! Xoxo

@@Missrunrun Hi there - there was an issue with uploading the Part 1 tutorial and some of the video was cut off. Here is the full tutorial, sleeves included. :) Thanks for your understanding! ua-cam.com/video/bLoSQifTCDY/v-deo.html
"Your" website crashes more than windows 95 did, why
Hmm, I'm not sure? I haven't heard that problem from anyone else, so I'm not sure exactly what's causing it for you. Perhaps try a different internet browser on your computer?
🍃❤️😍👍🏻🥰
Love the video but you didn't show how to do the sleeves, collar or the pocket :((( I was so excited to do this sweater :( I can NOT read or understand pattern's to save my life!! Bummer!!
This is only part one I'm sure there will be a part two where she will show how to do all that.
@@TheGreennblue There is a part 2 video and I'm sorry no she don't :((
Stacie, she will post a part two in a week or so. This is just the part one video. I've don't other sweaters of hers and she always does. So don't worry it's coming!
On her blog she has two separate posts and there is a video for each. The second video shows the collar, pockets, and seams. You can watch the second video now on her blog if you don't want to wait for her to post it here: makeanddocrew.com/how-to-crochet-long-sleeve-cardigan-video-part-2/
Stacie Mace I am looking for the sleeves too. Do anyone have any idea where to find it
It says a free patern but when I want to download it I have to pay! That is not FREE
so… then part 2 goes onto a different part. This didn’t finish!😮
Beautiful sweater ☺️
Why would I want to pay $15.99 per month for one pattern and video??
Hello, I'm not sure what you are referring to. If you'd like the free pattern, just click on the link in the description box below the video. That will take you to the blog post, and then you can scroll down to where you see the black title "Up North Beginner Crochet Cardigan Free Pattern," and that is where the free pattern is. The video tutorials are also on the blog posts. Hope that helps!
It doesn’t actually show you how to make the sleeves, where is the video to show you how to make the sleeves
Sleeves way too long. Loved the pattern. Remove 6inches from the xx pattern
