Yarnspirations Caron Crew Neck Cardigan and Close Stitched Family Lookbook

CaronSweater2

Have you seen the new Yarnspirations Close Stitched Family Lookbook?! It’s full of gorgeous knit and crochet garments for the whole family! Perfect for the Fall season! All made with Caron Simply Soft which has such a nice texture, stretch, and a rich color selection that lends well to wearables. I was immediately drawn to the Caron Child’s Crochet Crew Neck Cardigan and when I spotted the Lavender Blue color, I immediately knew this was going to be a piece my little Zoe could wear often!

Don’t let the pattern intimidated you. It’s actually worked in a variety of smaller pieces that you stitch together at the end! I’ve included a few pictures of the process (below) to help you wrap your mind around it.  And look how beautiful and unique the stitches look. But guess what, it’s merely a combination of SC and DC that alternate! Really a nice twist on a simple stitch! The pearl buttons I found at Michael’s Craft Store. Although I love how you could really use any kind of buttons to put a unique spin on your sweater.

These are the pieces you will create. The back panel, two front panels, and two sleeves (not worked in rounds, you will stitch those together).

This is how you position them to stitch together.

Can’t wait to see how it fits Zoe when she gets her cast off (notice her bulky right arm?).
See more about her broken arm HERE.

  3. Hi! My daughter is turning 3 on the 3rd and i would love to make this for her. I just want to clarify if the instructions are for a 3 year old or older child as the girl in the book appears slightly older. Thanks!

    • if you look at the book or the individual patterns, they state sizes in different colors. On the pattern, it’s right under the picture. They have chest measurements as well. My son is 7 so I did it a size 8 for him.

  4. I’m in love with this cardigan. Love that it “appears” a good beginner sweater project. I was reading the instructions and I’m confused on one of the first steps… on the second page, second instruction says “Rep last row until ribbing… ending on WSrow…. Do not turn.” then it reads “Next Row (WS)…. work SC evenly across long edge of ribbing. Turn.”
    My question is… Are they taking about dong a reverse SC (crab stitch)? If so, why not just say that? I’m hoping that is the case, although I’ve never seen a reverse stitch used in anything but an edging so I’m not sure how I would make the NEXT row but I’ll tackle that when I figure out what that first step means.
    I guess it’s not THAT beginner friendly If I’m full of questions. LOL!!! Thanks for the great blog it has been super helpful in this new journey.
    Hope your lovely model recovers fully!

    • I personally didn’t read it as a reverse cross stitch, they just want an established ‘right’ side and ‘wrong’ side, even though the cuff looks the same either way. I’ve seen this when doing gloves and such so the ‘pretty’ side is what people see.

  5. In the pattern, I’m seeing throughout that it states “continue even in pattern”. What does this mean? The picture looks like it continues to have inc rows, but your picture looks like it’s continued with the pattern straight up. I’m confused. I appreciate the help.
