I made this last year for my Mom for a Christmas present and she loves it still! The pattern is SUPER easy and I love that there's a video tutorial! Love this pattern and will definitely be making another one this year.
Great pattern with easy to follow instructions. Can't believe I did it. Actually used 2 strands of Roll with it Melange yarn and N hook. Turned out beautiful. Thank you!
I really love the trick of constructing sweater out of rectangle. I'm just about to finish the Modern Draped Sweater. I picked slightly smaller size than I wished for so substituted for adding more rows in collar (now it looks like front and back is purposely different pattern, which gives it interest) also added pockets (Which the other tutorial doesn't have) and now I'm here to add different pattern sleeves. This tutorial made me addicted to crochetting. This is my second sweater
Ever since i first saw this i wanted to do it but i always find an excuse or life happened now life happened again..quarantine so i will try it second attempt. Thank you for sharing!
Hi Jess. This is my next project. I'm trying to decide on a yarn & a color. i'm thinking yellow in support of the French. Just joined your crew and opened the archive. Wow! I'm making EVERYTHING! You are so precious to brag on your sister & design a room for her. Wish you were my sister. Thank you for sharing your talents with us. ☺️
Thank you for sharing this beautiful sweater pattern, I started making a shawl with pockets for my daughter with different stitches, then she had her heart set on a cardigan, so I used your assembly and she loves it! I am planning to make one of the other cardigans that you offer, they're all so beautiful!🥰
Love this one ! Already "Pinned" it ages ago ! I am now also subscribed to your guys' newsletter, so I don't miss anything anymore ! You've got great patterns and tutorials ! Keep them coming, please ! Love & hugs from Belgium !
Just finished my cardigan & i really like the way it looks. Depending on how tight you crochet you may have to add more rows to make it look like the picture. Also, it will be difficult to complete withour the written pattern which she has posted for free. But if you are a beginner or have trouble reading patterns this may not be for you.
it is very pretty, but I am afraid to do it, because I don't feel it is so friendly beginner... I will watch the video several times to decide if I am able to crochet it.
Hey Claudia, I can see why it may *seem* intimidating, but I promise that once you have the basic stitch pattern (which I go over step-by-step in the video), you'll be off to the races! The sweater body is comprised entirely of that stitch, with no increasing or decreasing. :)
Claudia la Norteñita It is definitely not for beginners. I've been crocheting for years and never saw this x stitch. Too many fancy stitches today, thanks but I'll stick to the original!!
thank you very much for this video!! This is my first sweater and I DID IT :) Loved it!! Thank you so very much and I hope the rest of your video's are this easy to follow!!
I was afraid to try this sweater but its a lot easier than it looks. I have just gotten my rectangle done. I used lionbrand Shimmerie yarn its a bulky 5 had to do adjustments but my measurements are right so excited to get this done. Thanks for a great pattern...looking forward to trying more of them. Hope all is well...Happy Thanksgiving.
Ok so I’ve made the sweater with a regular double stitch for 2 rows and a single for 1 because I wanted a warmer less holy sweater. Turned out great. However the batwing style sleeve is a bit restrictive in the range of motion. I dont know if that’s because I made it thicker, or the shape, or both. But It won’t work for me at my job but my friend who has a desk job was more than happy to buy it from me :)
Actually it says "beginner friendly" which means if you're a beginner you should be able to work this without much trouble. It's friendly for a beginner, but beginner is definitely a relative term. If you can't do this sweater you need to learn basic stitches and terms and come back to this when you have those down and you will see that this is very easy even for beginners. Remember that this is not a beginner tutorial on how to crochet but rather a video on how to crochet an easier sweater. If you wanted a sweater that was just single stitch all the way through or truly a beginner tutorial, the sweater would not be very interesting... If I can do it, you can do it.
I’m very much a beginner and I’m currently making this without much trouble. Sure, I may have had to pull out a row or two to start over but if you follow the video and pattern closely and take your time, it’s not as hard as it seems. All you have to do for the body is learn two stitches (other than a double crochet which is fairly well known).
Just wanted to leave this as a warning for folks thinking of making this. I made the large size using 6 gage (super bulky) lion brand yarn and let me tell ya its waaaaay too big. I'm about 5'7 and 148lbs (so just about average for my age) and i was swimming in this thing. Do yourself a favor and go with the smaller size- especially if you're using bigger yarn than she is. I like oversized clothes but this thing is a damn queen size blanket. It was super fun to make and it honestly looks really nice but just.... Don't make it the same size i did unless you're like 300 lbs.
Hi Claire! wondering if you can help me, I am making a L/XL too and I'm confused to how many of the square holes should be in each of the rows with the little boxes.
Amazing, am very new to crochet but your detailed tutorial gives me the will to give a try... will surely tag you if I manage to finish it. Thanks xoxo new subscriber here ❤
Welcome to the crochet world! We are super excited to have here with Make and Do Crew! You can totally make this sweater. If you run into issues, feel free to reach out, or ask in our Facebook group. There are a lot of good helpers there! :)
Why didn't it work?! I followed instructions exactly as u said and it went so small so i made too many more rows and it ends with totally another one i didn't like
The X’s are stinking the amount of stitches no? I have pulled my work out 3 times now and keep stinking my work!well the first two rows have worked so far 😀
I have tried this pattern 4 times now and 4 times I've ended up with a shrug and not the length that is shown in the pictures. Been crocheting for 18 years and its frustrating to mot be able to figure out where this is going wrong
I’ve been trying this (just learning how to crochet) and the basic rectangle was easier but the sleeves and collar and stuff is not easy...not sure what I’m doing wro g
Dana Cason My first attempt ended up like a shrug too....I've already start to think what I can do to make it longer....lemme know what works for you....thanks!
As someone who appreciates tutorials and learned how to crochet on YT 12 years ago when there were only a handful doing videos, I'd like to give my opinion for anyone who it may help. I made the mistake of believing that using a 5 bulky would work out with 96 stitches (small) I had already invested many rows before realizing the gauge was completely off. Not even a little!! FULL 5-8 INCHES. The photos of this sweater is a bit deceiving as it drapes really well, yet doesn't let you see how big and bulky the underarms may be. I say this bc I believe either the yarn was probably a 6.( or the work was done so loose ) The 96 stitches I did was way too short, (THE WIDTH (ROWS) therefore the back edge was so short that t wasn't possible to finish it as shown here. It ended up fitting as most shrugs would. (i wasn't looking for that when I chose this video) I had hopes that this wasn't just another fold over rectangle sweater shrug, which pulls backwards and just looks like an open garment, sliding backways, but that is just how it turned out. The sleeve stitch of forward double crochet didn't work as it has no stretch so although hugely disappointed in this , I decided to do a back loop SC rib to attach separately. I would try this with the right gauge and completely loose stitches, perhaps even a much larger hook, just so that the extra bulkiness of the underarm is not as much. I thought the front facing and bottom edge would make this more of a cartIgan. It still will slide back which is the nature of the shrug unless buttoned. I have at least 5 in my closet I don't wear for that reason. ***** Please note that the gauge will not work with the #5 bulky yarn and the "N" hook. I also crocheted loosely and was still short 5 inches. Perhaps that why the company stopped making that yarn.
Thank you for the video, but I think your pattern is wrong and in the video we can't see the whole cardigan. That's why when I do turns up very small, I tried it twice.
Overall I've enjoyed this project and you do a good job explaining the stitches. I've gotten to working on my collar after finishing the bulk of the sweater but realize as I'm trying it on that it's waaay shorter in length than it looks like in the sample photo. My guess is that I used a smaller hook than I should have. It looks great but definitely will not fit the intended recipient...
Hey! I'm sorry it's fitting shorter than you needed it to. If you have any interest (or patience!) to tear out the collar, you could always add additional rows to the main rectangle to make it longer before you move on to the collar. If you haven't already, it might be helpful to measure your gauge and compare it to the pattern just so you can sort of troubleshoot what went wrong so you know for the future. :)
@@makedocrew1717 thanks! I do plan on remaking this sweater. I added a row along the bottom so it wasn't so snug there. I also realized far too late that I was using a smaller gauged hook than suggested
Hello! ... How are you ...? ... I'm Carla from Chile ... I love your channel ... And I love crochet ... I just signed up .... I'm a beginner and there are many beautiful things I want to do ..... Could it be that your tutorials have their titles in Spanish please ...? Sorry for the translation, I don't know if it's okay ... 🤭🤭🤭 .... I wait for your answer ... Kind regards🌹🌹👍👍🤗🤗🤗🤗
i’m using caron big cakes with a 6.5mm hook to make mine so since its a lot smaller yarn i’m guessing i just chain until it measures 44” long for the foundation row, then continue crocheting the pattern to however big i want the square?! i love this pattern, thank you!
Can someone help me...? SUPER BEGINNER !! How many square windows should I have in each row if I am making the L/XL size? I know it says it should be the same in every row but I have a bunch of different numbers and I don't know which row is correct to keep following. Thanks!
I'm really struggling to find the free reference for sizes, I click the link to the pattern but the page doesnt have a link on it to the pattern except to ad one, I just wanna know the sizes 😢
Es y son muy hermosos pero me gustaría que no tuviera las letras encima del tejido y que tuviese una traducción en castellano por favor, gracias por compartir ♡
How is she getting it so long? I've attempted this pattern twice and I'm frustrated with both the written and video pattern because it always lays above my waste but she has in the pictures the sweater flowing down by her thighs. I'm so confused.
The way I do it I don't follow the video exactly and add where I need. Like I make the rectangle approx 46 wide and 26 length then sew the sleeves in triangle shape, mark where where the sleeves supposedly end on bottom row and add 'tail' to it (which is continuation of the back side) . I threw it on during tail making to have a ruff idea how long I want it to be. Than proceed with making the collar, again I choose number of rows that I things looks better on me. Try to check her other tutorials of similarly constructed sweaters. The one called Modern Draped Sweater has pretty straightforward directions at the beginning, which will make more sense
Just a heads up. The written pattern says you need 840 yds of size 5 yarn. I ended up using 1100 yds of size 5 and used the size N crochet needle. I'm not a tight crocheter either so I'm not sure why I used that much.
I’m making this pattern and have finished my rectangle. (Be sure to check your gauge. I didn’t check mine and had to add more rows to get the correct length.). How did you tie on your yarn to start seaming the sides?
I am working from the printed pattern and just finished the rectangle and decided to check the video and in your video you say to end on row 2 but the instructions don't state that.
I would love to make this But I am struggling with what kind of yarn and hook to get, plus understanding how much yarn to buy and how many stitches to use for the LG or xl
Hey Jennifer, Thank you! I'm so glad you find them helpful! I've listed the yarn amounts you need for each size of the sweater in the free written pattern which is link above this comment area in the video description box. Happy crocheting!
I’m stuck... I can’t figure out the amount of rows for the body of the sweater. I even got the written pattern... it doesn’t look big enough. I’ve done the amount of repeats but I feel like I haven’t done enough rows... can anyone help? I’m using Red Heart soft essentials stripes. It is a bulky 5 yarn.
What an adorable show would love to try to make thank you for sharing was wondering if it would change the pattern any where a lot of the times where you are stating yarn over you pull from the back of the yarn and don't actually yarn over should we follow the way that you crochet this or should we follow your spoken directions?
I never make sweater but I really want this one ❤️ I just don't know how many meters of yarn I should order? And with how many loops I should start 🤔help me please
(not related to the video at all lol) _Please_ read all of this! So I'm a beginner crocheter and I've been trying to do the single crochet pattern but I've been having problems so, I thought I'd come here where more advanced crocheters are, in hopes of them helping me. So I actually have more than one problem, I hope someone can take time to help me with all of them 🤗 I'm going to try to explain this as best I can but as a beginner crocheter I might have trouble. So first of all, I can do the starting chain just fine, and I can do the row after the starting chain just fine, but I have a lot of trouble doing the rest of the rows. (Tell me if I'm wrong, but) you're apparently supposed to make a single chain as a turning stitch, then yarn over, then insert the hook into a certain stitch so that there appears to be three loops on the hook, then yarn over and pull the hook through one loop (so that there's apparently supposed to be two loops on the hook), then yarn over again and pull thru so that there is one loop on the hook,and start over again. I'm having all kinds of trouble doing this. I dont know which stitch to insert the hook into, and I usually just guess which stitch. I'm also having trouble doing the first yarn-over; when I finally manage to pull thru the first loop only, and almost always after I do that, I end up with still three loops on the hook instead of two like there's supposed to be. If you manage to take the time to read all this (and manage to understand it lol) and perhaps help me with the issues, I appreciate it so very much, thank you 😊😛
Love how these cocoon cardigans create dolman-like sleeves. And pockets-YAY. Thanks
I made this in about a week. I love it! It was my first garment. Thank you so much for the great video.

What a brilliantly constructed sweater! I'm definitely going to give this a go, thank you 😊

Oh man, I so wanted to make this sweater, I got to the 4th row and was done. Just was not easy for me. But it’s a beautiful sweater.
May I suggest to try a stitch or stitches yuh ou are more comfortable with, then apply the same assembly 🙂
I couldn’t get past row three.
Starting this now! I had to end up getting weight 4 yarn instead if 5 weight bc of financial reasons but... I'll still try! Thanks for posting!
It’s so interesting that you do a yarn under instead of yarn over on your double crochets. 🤔
This is a beautiful sweater and I’m excited to try it. 😊
I wondered if anyone else had noticed the yarn under while watching. I'm not alone. 🙂
Just finishing this love it only been crocheting for four months was really easy to follow thank you
Thank you for making this tutorial....now i know what to make for all the ladies in the family for Christmas

Can someone help me...?
SUPER BEGINNER !! How many square windows should I have in each row if I am making the L/XL size? I know it says it should be the same in every row but I have a bunch of different numbers and I don't know which row is correct to keep following.
Thanks!
thank you!! amazing pattern
I'm really struggling to find the free reference for sizes, I click the link to the pattern but the page doesnt have a link on it to the pattern except to ad one, I just wanna know the sizes 😢
Thank you very very much. I love you))
Love it
I’m having a terrible time finding the turning chain! Can you help? Love it if I ever manage to finish. Lol
I wonder if this would work with just double crochets, imitating the dimensions? I kinda wanna do it.. but without holes
You totally can. I made one with a V-stitch
Es y son muy hermosos pero me gustaría que no tuviera las letras encima del tejido y que tuviese una traducción en castellano por favor, gracias por compartir ♡
Marilyn Gallardo hola qué tal me gustaría invitarte a mi canal de tejido a crochet en español. Soy ely conriv 😆 y soy de México 😀
Ely Conriv okey me encantaría gracias por compartir
Quien sabe medidas de alto y largo del tejido? Gracias.
I really want to make it
Could you maybe please suggest how to do measurements/how many chains to do for like a toddler size?? I want to crochet a set for me and my mini me!
I love it!!
Gosh i sure hope you see this question cuz i really want to make it but im wondering if its easy to make it very long
How is she getting it so long? I've attempted this pattern twice and I'm frustrated with both the written and video pattern because it always lays above my waste but she has in the pictures the sweater flowing down by her thighs. I'm so confused.
I have the same question! I just finished mine and it’s not nearly as long as the picture. I’m wondering if I can add to it to make it longer?
The way I do it I don't follow the video exactly and add where I need. Like I make the rectangle approx 46 wide and 26 length then sew the sleeves in triangle shape, mark where where the sleeves supposedly end on bottom row and add 'tail' to it (which is continuation of the back side) . I threw it on during tail making to have a ruff idea how long I want it to be. Than proceed with making the collar, again I choose number of rows that I things looks better on me.
Try to check her other tutorials of similarly constructed sweaters. The one called Modern Draped Sweater has pretty straightforward directions at the beginning, which will make more sense
@@kaleighleeworthy8248 see my comment above ☺
I love the pattern, but having trouble starting the sleeves. Am I the only one?
Just a heads up. The written pattern says you need 840 yds of size 5 yarn. I ended up using 1100 yds of size 5 and used the size N crochet needle. I'm not a tight crocheter either so I'm not sure why I used that much.
Qué hermoso te quedó. Felicidades.🙂🙋
Patty GV holaaa!!en que momento hizo los puños!!!?? Como se hace??
Thank you 😘Si nice 🌹❤️We need more😍
I made this in the small size with the right hook but it’s HUGE I’ll have to double check the size of yarn I used
I’m making this pattern and have finished my rectangle. (Be sure to check your gauge. I didn’t check mine and had to add more rows to get the correct length.). How did you tie on your yarn to start seaming the sides?
Hi, I'm using an N hook on 5 bulky yarn & having the same issue. How many rows did you have to add?
Hi you don’t say much about the gauge how do you start it please thankyou xx
I am working from the printed pattern and just finished the rectangle and decided to check the video and in your video you say to end on row 2 but the instructions don't state that.
I would love to make this
But I am struggling with what kind of yarn and hook to get, plus understanding how much yarn to buy and how many stitches to use for the LG or xl
I love your sweater instruction, super simple and clear.
I wondering how much yarn, do I need for small sweater
Hey Jennifer, Thank you! I'm so glad you find them helpful! I've listed the yarn amounts you need for each size of the sweater in the free written pattern which is link above this comment area in the video description box. Happy crocheting!
Hi I love your pattern. I have DK weight yarn. Can you advise how many chains I should do to achieve this?
I’m stuck... I can’t figure out the amount of rows for the body of the sweater. I even got the written pattern... it doesn’t look big enough. I’ve done the amount of repeats but I feel like I haven’t done enough rows... can anyone help?
I’m using Red Heart soft essentials stripes. It is a bulky 5 yarn.
I'm having the exact same issue. Let me know if you got it rectified.
Iam the same way
What an adorable show would love to try to make thank you for sharing was wondering if it would change the pattern any where a lot of the times where you are stating yarn over you pull from the back of the yarn and don't actually yarn over should we follow the way that you crochet this or should we follow your spoken directions?
I never make sweater but I really want this one ❤️ I just don't know how many meters of yarn I should order? And with how many loops I should start 🤔help me please
(not related to the video at all lol)
_Please_ read all of this!
So I'm a beginner crocheter and I've been trying to do the single crochet pattern but I've been having problems so, I thought I'd come here where more advanced crocheters are, in hopes of them helping me.
So I actually have more than one problem, I hope someone can take time to help me with all of them 🤗
I'm going to try to explain this as best I can but as a beginner crocheter I might have trouble. So first of all, I can do the starting chain just fine, and I can do the row after the starting chain just fine, but I have a lot of trouble doing the rest of the rows. (Tell me if I'm wrong, but) you're apparently supposed to make a single chain as a turning stitch, then yarn over, then insert the hook into a certain stitch so that there appears to be three loops on the hook, then yarn over and pull the hook through one loop (so that there's apparently supposed to be two loops on the hook), then yarn over again and pull thru so that there is one loop on the hook,and start over again. I'm having all kinds of trouble doing this. I dont know which stitch to insert the hook into, and I usually just guess which stitch. I'm also having trouble doing the first yarn-over; when I finally manage to pull thru the first loop only, and almost always after I do that, I end up with still three loops on the hook instead of two like there's supposed to be.
If you manage to take the time to read all this (and manage to understand it lol) and perhaps help me with the issues, I appreciate it so very much, thank you 😊😛
Me encanto hermoso mil gracias!!!
Muchas gracias Yudy, y de nada! :)

I purchased the pattern, but the yarn is discontinued and I'm using a smaller yarn. Is there a measurement the rectangle should be?
3:41 I want to make a medium size can you help me with the pattern? Thanks
