Crochet cardigan pattern

$2.98

Materials you’ll need:

  1. Crochet hook (appropriate size for your chosen yarn)
  2. Worsted weight or bulky yarn in your desired color
  3. Scissors
  4. Yarn needle

Instructions:

  1. Measurements: a. Before starting, take your measurements for the bust, waist, and hips. This will help you determine the size to crochet and ensure a good fit.
  2. Back Panel: a. Make a foundation chain with a length equal to the desired width of the back panel (typically based on your bust measurement). b. Starting from the second chain from the hook, work in your chosen stitch pattern (such as double crochet or half double crochet) until the panel reaches the desired length (typically based on your desired cardigan length or the measurement from your shoulder to the waist).
  3. Front Panels (make 2): a. Repeat the same steps as the back panel, making sure to match the width and length. b. However, you may want to shape the front panels by decreasing the stitch count gradually along one edge to create a slanted edge for the front opening.
  4. Sleeves (make 2): a. Make two separate panels for the sleeves. b. Determine the desired width of the sleeves (typically based on your upper arm circumference) and work in your chosen stitch pattern until the panel reaches the desired length (typically based on your desired sleeve length or the measurement from your shoulder to your wrist). c. You may want to gradually decrease or increase the stitch count at the beginning and end of each row to shape the sleeves.
  5. Assembly: a. Lay the back panel and front panels together, with the right sides facing each other. b. Seam the shoulders using a whipstitch or mattress stitch, leaving openings for the neck as desired. c. Seam the sides of the cardigan, leaving openings for the armholes. d. Seam the sleeves to the armhole openings, ensuring that the seams align with the shoulder seams. e. Weave in any loose ends using a yarn needle.

Remember to adjust the size, stitch pattern, and other details based on your preferences. This pattern provides a basic structure for a crochet cardigan, and you can modify it by incorporating different stitch patterns, color changes, or additional design elements to make it uniquely yours.
