WEBVTT 00:00.000 --> 00:05.160 Hi there natives, welcome to the channel or welcome back if you are a genetic creator 00:05.160 --> 00:10.440 In this tutorial I am gonna walk you guys through how to make this super beginner friendly 00:10.440 --> 00:15.320 crochet cardigan. This as always is available in many sizes and available for free 00:15.320 --> 00:23.160 So let me walk you guys through the construction. We are gonna begin by working the whole body in one piece and then we are gonna close it 00:23.160 --> 00:28.720 and seam the shoulder portion. After that we are gonna connect that yarn to the underarm section which is then gonna 00:28.720 --> 00:36.720 form our sleeve. After that we are gonna work that corner and then we are gonna have our lovely crochet cardigan 00:36.720 --> 00:41.360 As always we are running a sale in our shop so be sure to run down there so that you do 00:41.360 --> 00:54.360 not miss out on this. Let's get into it. So the materials that we will be using will be needles and yarn, pair of scissors, two 00:54.360 --> 01:02.680 braids for the head which is a 5mm and a 4mm to work the buns, stitch markers and a 01:02.680 --> 01:12.280 round needle. So let me talk about the yarn. I am gonna be using a 3 strand or a single loop yarn but then I will be using two strands together 01:12.280 --> 01:19.280 The 2 strands of single loop yarn make a dc loop yarn. So in the pattern I am gonna tell you to use a dc loop yarn 01:19.280 --> 01:25.600 So don't let this confuse you. I am using this because I do not have access to dc loop yarn but make sure that you are 01:25.600 --> 01:30.600 using a dc loop yarn. If you do not have dc loop yarn you can also do what I am doing 01:30.600 --> 01:35.600 Get two strands of single loop yarn. Both of them together will give you a dc loop yarn 01:35.600 --> 01:48.600 So that's what we are gonna be doing in this pattern. So to begin we are gonna begin with our 5mm crochet hook and we are gonna begin by making 01:48.919 --> 01:52.919 a slip knot. So I am gonna walk you through this and to make a slip knot 01:52.919 --> 02:01.919 If you have other ways you can do it. It's absolutely fine. If you do not know how to make a slip knot you are just gonna take your yarn, wrap it 02:01.919 --> 02:11.920 around your fingers. I like to hold the shorter end of the yarn onto my thumb and then I wrap 02:12.239 --> 02:19.239 I have it around my fingers like so and then I wrap it in half like that without crossing 02:19.239 --> 02:29.239 each other like so. I take my hook, put it underneath, I hook that yarn and I tighten it up just like that 02:29.239 --> 02:38.239 So let me do that again. My yarn, pinch it right there with my thumb, wrap it around my finger, bring it over and 02:38.560 --> 02:43.560 I make a cross and now my thumb is underneath this and hold onto there 02:43.560 --> 02:49.560 Grab my hook, put it underneath, hook that yarn, you wanna use your pinky to hook onto 02:49.560 --> 02:54.560 that shorter tail so it doesn't move, hook that yarn and pull it through like so 02:54.560 --> 03:00.560 And then you want to hold both your short and the long tail and pull back and now you 03:00.560 --> 03:04.560 are just gonna pull into that long back tail to tighten that 03:04.880 --> 03:08.880 So if it's too tight on the hook you can always pull the shorter tail to make it nice and 03:08.880 --> 03:14.880 loose but not too loose. You want it enough so that it moves around the hook but it's not too tight 03:14.880 --> 03:21.880 It's just moving just fine. So if it's tight I will be mainly demonstrating this side more 03:21.880 --> 03:28.880 However, remember there is a pdfs pattern attached that can be read by an absolute beginner 03:28.880 --> 03:33.880 and if you are working together with that pdfs pattern it will be so much easier 03:34.200 --> 03:40.200 So what I am going to do is I am going to show you how to do the pdf pattern. So I am going to show you how to do the pdf pattern 03:40.200 --> 03:46.200 So I am going to show you how to do the pdf pattern. So I am going to show you how to do the pdf pattern 03:46.200 --> 03:52.200 So I am going to show you how to do the pdf pattern. So I am going to show you how to do the pdf pattern 03:52.200 --> 03:58.200 So I am going to show you how to do the pdf pattern. So I am going to show you how to do the pdf pattern 03:58.200 --> 04:04.519 So I am going to show you how to do the pdf pattern. So I am going to show you how to do the pdf pattern 04:04.519 --> 04:10.519 So I am going to show you how to do the pdf pattern. So I am going to show you how to do the pdf pattern 04:10.519 --> 04:16.519 So I am going to show you how to do the pdf pattern. So I am going to show you how to do the pdf pattern 04:16.519 --> 04:22.520 So I am going to show you how to do the pdf pattern. So I am going to show you how to do the pdf pattern 04:22.520 --> 04:28.520 So I am going to show you how to do the pdf pattern. So I am going to show you how to do the pdf pattern 04:28.840 --> 04:37.840 And over and pull through. Pretty much just like that. And over and pull through 04:37.840 --> 04:46.840 And over and pull through. And over and pull through. So if you have a computer, you can listen to how the speaker wants 04:46.840 --> 04:52.840 So if you have a computer, you can listen to how the speaker wants. If you are making it very small like I am 04:52.840 --> 04:58.840 If you are making it extra small, you can listen to how the total student wants. If you are making it huge, you can listen to how the total student wants 04:58.840 --> 05:02.840 101 and so on and so forth. 101 and so on and so forth 05:02.840 --> 05:08.840 So I am going to continue doing this until I have my 81 page. So I am going to continue doing this until I have my 81 page 05:08.840 --> 05:14.840 And then I will be right back. And then I will be right back 05:14.840 --> 05:20.840 So now I am back and I have my same as 81. So now I am back and I have my same as 81 05:20.840 --> 05:26.840 This is the top. So this is what we are looking at 05:26.840 --> 05:32.840 So this is what we are looking at. So to begin row 1, we are going to be switching away from our 5mm hook to R4 05:32.840 --> 05:38.840 So to begin row 1, we are going to be switching away from our 5mm hook to R4. So to begin row 1, we are going to be switching away from our 5mm hook to R4 05:38.840 --> 05:44.840 So to begin row 1, we are going to be switching away from our 5mm hook to R4.

So to begin row 1, we are going to be switching away from our 5mm hook to R4 06:50.840 --> 06:56.840 So to begin row 1, we are going to be switching away from our 5mm hook to R4. So to begin row 1, we are going to be switching away from our 5mm hook to R4 06:56.840 --> 07:02.840 So to begin row 1, we are going to be switching away from our 5mm hook to R4. So to begin row 1, we are going to be switching away from our 5mm hook to R4 07:02.840 --> 07:08.840 So to begin row 1, we are going to be switching away from our 5mm hook to R4. So to begin row 1, we are going to be switching away from our 5mm hook to R4 07:08.840 --> 07:14.840 So to begin row 1, we are going to be switching away from our 5mm hook to R4. So to begin row 1, we are going to be switching away from our 5mm hook to R4 07:14.840 --> 07:20.840 So to begin row 1, we are going to be switching away from our 5mm hook to R4. So to begin row 1, we are going to be switching away from our 5mm hook to R4 07:20.840 --> 07:26.840 So to begin row 1, we are going to be switching away from our 5mm hook to R4. So to begin row 1, we are going to be switching away from our 5mm hook to R4 07:26.840 --> 07:32.840 So to begin row 1, we are going to be switching away from our 5mm hook to R4. So to begin row 1, we are going to be switching away from our 5mm hook to R4 07:32.840 --> 07:38.840 So to begin row 1, we are going to be switching away from our 5mm hook to R4. So to begin row 1, we are going to be switching away from our 5mm hook to R4 07:38.840 --> 07:44.840 So this is our first chain and this is our second chain. So we are going to be working into our second chain 07:44.840 --> 07:50.840 So picking your eye on that second chain, turning it around, we'll be working into the dot front. So picking your eye on that second chain, turning it around, we'll be working into the dot front 07:50.840 --> 07:56.840 This is our first chain dot front, and this is our second dot front of the chain. This is our first chain dot front, and this is our second dot front of the chain 07:56.840 --> 08:02.840 So this second row is where we are going to be working into. So yarn over, insert your hook into that dot front 08:02.840 --> 08:08.840 Yarn over again, pull it through, and I've got three loops in the hook. Yarn over, and pull it through 08:08.840 --> 08:14.840 So we are going to be inserting our hook into the stitch to front here, So we are going to be inserting our hook into the stitch to front here 08:14.840 --> 08:20.840 because it's very easy to miss that one. So just as we did the first one, we are also going to go into the back of the second or the next chain 08:20.840 --> 08:26.840 So just as we did the first one, we are also going to go into the back of the second or the next chain. So just as we did the first one, we are also going to go into the back of the second or the next chain 08:26.840 --> 08:32.839 So just as we did the first one, we are also going to go into the back of the second or the next chain. So just as we did the first one, we are also going to go into the back of the second or the next chain 08:33.840 --> 08:39.840 So, into the back loop, three chains, three loops. So, into the back loop, three chains, three loops 08:39.840 --> 08:45.840 And now I'm going to yarn over and pull through three. That's it, our second stitch 08:45.840 --> 08:51.840 Yarn over, find the next back bump, insert your hook, Yarn over, find the next back bump, insert your hook 08:51.840 --> 08:57.840 work it around, pull through, three loops in your hook, yarn over, and pull through 08:57.840 --> 09:03.840 So now we've worked three. This is our second and this is our third 09:03.840 --> 09:09.840 So I want to have a total of ten while using our four. So I want to have a total of ten while using our four 09:09.840 --> 09:15.840 I'm going to crochet a hook. I am going to continue to loosen off, half double crochets 09:15.840 --> 09:21.840 I am going to continue to loosen off, half double crochets. So you're going to keep working until you have a total of ten 09:21.840 --> 09:27.840 So you're going to keep working until you have a total of ten. I have completed my ten 09:27.840 --> 09:35.840 Where the stitch marker is, that's my foot. So this is the first, and I have the second, third, fourth, fifth 09:35.840 --> 09:41.840 sixth, seventh, eighth, ninth, and tenth. They look like units if I'm going to hold them like this 09:41.840 --> 09:46.840 You're going to see that they make the shape of a unit. So you're just going to be counting them 09:46.840 --> 09:52.840 So that's one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, and ten 09:52.840 --> 09:56.840 So that's one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, and ten 09:56.840 --> 10:03.840 And it's cool. Now let's do more things in a minute, okay? So now, into that table, which is this one right here 10:03.840 --> 10:08.840 we're going to be placing the other crochet hook in stitch marker units 10:08.840 --> 10:13.840 So what this means is, each time we lift this stitch marker 10:13.840 --> 10:19.840 the orange one, as you can see, we're going to be switching to a four-unit crochet hook 10:19.840 --> 10:28.840 because we're working that bank, that bottom bank. However, for the rest, which is now the rest of the body 10:28.840 --> 10:34.840 we're going to be using the five-millimeter crochet hook. So I'm just going to insert that five-millimeter crochet hook 10:34.840 --> 10:40.840 That last stitch marker is just there to remind us that this is that last stitch that we need to work into 10:40.840 --> 10:48.840 because it's very easy to miss this very last stitch. So go ahead and switch, just like I have 10:48.840 --> 10:54.840 And for the rest of the row, all I'm doing is a check mark, which is what we've been doing here with that four-millimeter crochet hook 10:54.840 --> 11:01.840 So just turning over, going into that back bump, and placing a half double crochet 11:01.840 --> 11:05.840 And you're going to do this all the way up to the top of the row 11:05.840 --> 11:09.840 And by the top of the row, I mean the end of the stitch 11:09.840 --> 11:15.840 Which is actually this one here, continue coming up, and then you may have got about three or four stitches left 11:15.840 --> 11:26.840 so that we can finish up that row together. I've got two rows left, and I'm just going to finish those stitches 11:29.840 --> 11:37.840 And there's that last one. And there we go. And there is the first half-down little tail that we have 11:37.840 --> 11:44.840 which we're going to be using at the very end. So at the end of row one, this is what our work is looking like 11:44.840 --> 11:48.840 This is the final piece. We're not looking for much of a bump right now 11:48.840 --> 11:53.840 because this does the first row of our cardigan, and this is the last of it 11:53.840 --> 12:00.840 So to begin row two, you are just going to chain one and turn 12:00.840 --> 12:04.840 So let me just grab another stitch marker because we're going to be needing about three 12:04.840 --> 12:09.840 And I have one for the first, one for where our bump begins 12:09.840 --> 12:20.840 and another one for where our bump ends. So, we may have chained one, which is this one right here 12:20.840 --> 12:29.840 which means this side to be our very first stitch. So, to make this work look beautiful and vivid 12:29.840 --> 12:37.840 we're going to be working into the back bump. Into the back bump of our crochet cardigan, I think 12:37.840 --> 12:46.840 in this section. So, the back bump, and all the half-double crochets 12:46.840 --> 12:53.840 would be worked into this right here, this little hole, or these holes that I'm pointing right now 12:53.840 --> 12:59.840 A back loop, half-double crochet, would be worked into this back bump right here 12:59.840 --> 13:03.840 So this is this bump right here, or these stitches that I've been taking out 13:03.840 --> 13:11.840 So those are the stitches that we would be focusing on. So, remember, this is our chain 13:11.840 --> 13:18.840 which means that we have to tighten the second row. So yarn over, and we're going to do it all along 13:18.840 --> 13:23.840 And then into the back bump of the first stitch of this row 13:23.840 --> 13:32.840 or the second row, we are going to insert our hook into the back bump, hook that yarn and pull it through 13:32.840 --> 13:39.840 Yarn over, and pull through. Let me do that one more time, in case you missed it 13:41.840 --> 13:52.840 Yarn over, into the back bump of that first stitch, pull it through, insert your hook, yarn over, and pull through all three 13:52.840 --> 13:57.840 And that's our first stitch, and as usual, we're going to be creating a stitch marker 13:57.840 --> 14:04.840 so that we do not miss it. So, let me work a demo with you until you get the hang of it 14:04.840 --> 14:14.840 Into the back bump, and pull through three. Yarn over, into the back bump right there 14:14.840 --> 14:22.840 yarn over, and pull through all three. Into the back bump, free loop on the hook 14:22.840 --> 14:29.840 yarn over, and pull through all three. Yarn over, and into the back bump 14:29.840 --> 14:35.840 pull that loop, free loop on the hook, yarn over, and pull through all three 14:35.840 --> 14:41.840 And you just want to continue doing that all the way until you get the stitch 14:41.840 --> 14:48.840 the holder stitch marker, which is this stitch right here. Once you get to that stitch marker, I will meet you there 14:48.840 --> 14:53.840 so that we can put together that four, and incorporate these together 14:54.840 --> 14:58.840 So, on the end of row two, this is what it's all looking like 14:58.840 --> 15:08.840 I'm just going to switch back to my 4mm crochet hook. So, I'm going to remove that stitch marker 15:08.840 --> 15:14.840 and run it over here. Yarn over, and into the back loop still 15:14.840 --> 15:22.840 insert that hook, pull through, and I'm going to return that stitch marker 15:22.840 --> 15:30.840 And it's quite nice. Proceed, place your half double crochets, this is your 4mm hook 15:35.840 --> 15:39.840 So, you can make these stitches a bit tighter than they are 15:39.840 --> 15:43.840 because you are trying to make a bump. You don't want to make them too tight 15:43.840 --> 15:47.840 because if you make them too tight, you'll quite a bit more trouble doing 15:47.840 --> 15:51.840 But then you can just increase the tension just a little bit 15:51.840 --> 15:56.840 And then I have reached that last stitch, so I'm going to remove that stitch marker 15:56.840 --> 16:00.840 We're still holding on to that last stitch, so we don't miss it 16:00.840 --> 16:09.840 And still in the bump, and it fits right there. So, this means now we have completed two rows of our crochet cardigan 16:09.840 --> 16:17.840 Now, you are just going to chain one, and turn, pull up 16:18.840 --> 16:25.840 and just as we did the beginning of row two, you are going to find that last stitch 16:25.840 --> 16:31.840 ignoring that chain, yarn over, and still in the back bump, or back loop 16:31.840 --> 16:40.840 place your first half double crochet. And return that stitch marker to its original place 16:40.840 --> 16:47.840 And continue placing those back loops, half double crochets, all the way up 16:48.840 --> 16:55.840 until that other stitch marker. And you'd notice I just moved the book in front of it 16:55.840 --> 17:00.840 so I'm really sorry. But what we're always doing is we're going to chain two back loops 17:01.840 --> 17:11.840 half double crochets, all the way up, until the stitch marker 17:11.840 --> 17:15.839 Don't move too fast. Let's pause the video until you catch that 17:16.839 --> 17:23.839 So, into that last stitch, where that stitch marker is, you're going to remove that stitch marker 17:23.839 --> 17:31.840 yarn over, and place that last loop of the band of another loop in that stitch marker 17:33.840 --> 17:40.840 pull this out, bring back the first remaining stitch marker, and proceed for the rest of the row 17:40.840 --> 17:45.840 with my fuzzy little book. So let me go on up until the top 17:45.840 --> 17:51.840 and I will meet you there again. So, I am at the top 17:51.840 --> 18:00.840 I'm going to have to twist it here, so it's in a row of three. And I'm just going to move that stitch 18:01.840 --> 18:09.840 to the top of that stitch, like so. Chain one, to begin the fourth 18:09.840 --> 18:15.840 And then, as usual, I'm going to chain, into that first stitch 18:15.840 --> 18:22.840 that first loop, we place our first half double crochet. So, from here on 18:22.840 --> 18:28.840 we're basically going to go through and through to work from the front panel 18:28.840 --> 18:33.840 because what we're working with the front panel is a single crochet, and so it covers our front part 18:33.840 --> 18:37.840 and the single crochet goes slightly off our shoulder. If we are trying to make a bigger 18:37.840 --> 18:42.840 we can do a bigger, because we've oversized the cardigan. So, I'm going to meet you at that very soon 18:42.840 --> 18:46.840 to let you know how many rows I worked, for size small 18:46.840 --> 18:50.840 If you want to just work off the number, or remember the reduction pattern for all of this 18:50.840 --> 18:55.840 it's going to be in that free pattern, or that link to that PDF that I have attached 18:55.840 --> 18:59.840 to this Tweeded cloth. So do so to follow that. But as for me, I'm just going to go up 18:59.840 --> 19:04.840 come up like this, finish off the front panel, and then I'll meet you at that to show you 19:04.840 --> 19:09.840 how many rows that I had. And, you want to make sure that you're ending 19:09.840 --> 19:13.840 at the bottom of the row, and that really makes sense when I'm back 19:13.840 --> 19:17.840 Right now I'm at the top, because this is where our shoulder is going to be 19:17.840 --> 19:23.840 This is our shoulder portion, or the top part. So, when you are done with the front portion 19:23.840 --> 19:27.840 you have your hook, it's going to be at the bottom, at the base right here 19:27.840 --> 19:31.840 So then you go up, come up, work the rest of my front panel 19:31.840 --> 19:38.840 and then I'll meet you right back. And so, after doing back and forth 19:38.840 --> 19:44.840 I have finished my front panel, and I have a total of 8 pieces 19:44.840 --> 19:49.840 This is how much I want to top. I'm not going to get 6 pieces 19:49.840 --> 19:54.840 I've got 8 and a half pieces, so I have 8 and a half pieces for my front panel 19:54.840 --> 20:00.840 So, this, um, ends up being a total of 20 rows, as the pattern goes 20:00.840 --> 20:05.840 So I'm going to change, because I am doing this before I put in the pattern, so I'm writing the pattern as I go 20:06.840 --> 20:10.840 So, from now on, we are going to be making the back panel 20:10.840 --> 20:15.840 So, just to remind you of the construction, of how we're doing it 20:15.840 --> 20:21.840 what we've just completed is this right here. So, we've just completed this front panel 20:21.840 --> 20:25.840 this is our 20 rows. So, from here, we're not going to cut the yarn 20:25.840 --> 20:30.840 we're just going to continue to work the other side. So, if you noticed, on my project 20:30.840 --> 20:36.840 there is this stitch marker. This stitch marker is working this area right here 20:36.840 --> 20:42.840 where I am now. We are now going to make the chain, which is now going to make our back portion 20:42.840 --> 20:47.840 So, the back portion, the little gap that we're going to be leaving 20:47.840 --> 20:51.840 that you're going to see here, which is also this section right here 20:51.840 --> 20:56.840 is where our fringes are going to go. But for now, we are just going to 20:56.840 --> 21:00.840 we're going to leave a few stitches up here, a little chain that matches the stitches 21:00.840 --> 21:04.840 that we've left this side, and then we're going to work the back portion 21:04.840 --> 21:08.840 So, the back portion is going to be the number of rows for the front 21:08.840 --> 21:14.840 times 2, plus 3. So, since I have 20 rows here, the back, which is more 21:14.840 --> 21:18.840 is going to be 43. So, that's 20 times 2, which is 40 21:18.840 --> 21:22.840 plus 3 rows, to give it an extra width for the collar, basically 21:22.840 --> 21:26.840 So, we're going to have a total of 23 rows for the back 21:26.840 --> 21:33.840 And then, we're going to come back to making another armhole, and making it the same equivalent 21:33.840 --> 21:38.840 the same things that we left on this side, which, by the way, the number will be the same for this side 21:38.840 --> 21:42.840 And then, we're going to finish off by making the other front panel. After we've done that 21:42.840 --> 21:47.840 we are going to close it. So, we're going to bring this front to close 21:47.840 --> 21:54.840 We're going to close the shoulder, so it looks like this. And then, while we still have, um 21:54.840 --> 21:58.840 we're going to connect our yarn to the underarm section, which is going to be this 21:58.840 --> 22:02.840 so that's now we're going to need a long tail, which is going to be the length of our arm 22:02.840 --> 22:08.840 to make our sleeve. And then, onto the hairpin cardigan, we're going to be going back and forth 22:08.840 --> 22:13.840 After, we'll crochet our sleeves onto the cardigan, because I really want to reduce the sewing 22:13.840 --> 22:19.840 I know it's been irritating so much, and it's confusing. Sometimes you end up having one armhole 22:19.840 --> 22:23.840 that's so small, or so tight. So, I want to teach you this method 22:23.840 --> 22:27.840 This is how I work almost all my sweaters and all my cardigans 22:27.840 --> 22:33.840 So, now that I've given you the photograph, let's get back to our main focal point 22:33.840 --> 22:37.840 So, like I said earlier, hold on, let me pick up my hair 22:40.840 --> 22:44.840 As I mentioned earlier, I said you should be ending at the bottom of your work 22:44.840 --> 22:50.840 and this is because you need to be coming from the bottom up to sort of separate the front from the back 22:50.840 --> 22:55.840 So, go ahead and use this stitch marker and where you're supposed to leave it 22:55.840 --> 22:59.840 If you're making a size small, then you're going to count to six stitches 22:59.840 --> 23:05.840 from the top coming down. So, these little stitches, pretty much are what you're going to be counting 23:05.840 --> 23:13.840 So, that's 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 23:13.840 --> 23:22.840 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22 23:22.840 --> 23:28.840 23, 24, 25, and 26. So, into the 26 is where I've left my stitch marker 23:28.840 --> 23:34.840 So, now what I'm going to do is I'm going to crochet from here up to this stitch 23:34.840 --> 23:40.840 just before that stitch marker. And I will meet you there, so that I can show you how we're going to use that seam 23:40.840 --> 23:48.840 to separate the front from the back. So, here I am. I'm at this stitch just before that stitch marker 23:48.840 --> 23:52.840 So, now it's time to chain. The number of chains is equivalent to this 23:52.840 --> 23:57.840 But then the number, we're going to need an extra stitch or two 23:57.840 --> 24:01.840 So, since we've got 26 stitches just now, we need to chain 27 24:01.840 --> 24:06.840 because the extra stitch is going to be our chaining seam. At the end of that chain 24:06.840 --> 24:10.840 it's going to have the same number of stitches we have, which is 26 24:10.840 --> 24:14.840 So, I'm going to be chaining a total of 27 or so more 24:14.840 --> 24:18.840 And if you remember how we chained, we just turn over and pull through 24:18.840 --> 24:25.840 That's one. So, to not forget the first one, I'm going to put a stitch marker into that back loop 24:25.840 --> 24:29.840 or back hoop, just right here. Since that's what we're going to be working into anyway 24:29.840 --> 24:33.840 It's easy to miss this. So, you want to make sure you put a stitch marker 24:33.840 --> 24:38.840 into that first chain you made. So, that's the first one. Second, third 24:38.840 --> 24:43.840 I'm just going to go with the first of it. Four, five, six, seven, eight 24:43.840 --> 24:52.840 nine, ten, eleven, twelve, thirteen, fourteen, fifteen, sixteen, seventeen, eighteen, nineteen, twenty 24:52.840 --> 25:01.840 twenty-one, twenty-two, twenty-three, twenty-four, twenty-five, twenty-six, twenty-seven. Finally, you might do a stitch holder than the other one 25:01.840 --> 25:08.840 but that's absolutely fine. So, now what we're doing, we're separating the back from the front 25:10.840 --> 25:14.840 So, from here on, we're going to be doing as we did for the foundation chain 25:14.840 --> 25:21.840 You are going to turn that chain the other way around, find the second back bump of that second chain 25:21.840 --> 25:25.840 and from there, you're going to go in with a half double crochet 25:27.840 --> 25:33.840 Just as we did with that foundation row. And you're going to go in placing a half double crochet 25:33.840 --> 25:40.840 all the way down. So, I'm going to go on placing my half double crochet 25:40.840 --> 25:45.840 all the way down until I reach the stitch marker, and then I'll go on for the rest of the project with you 25:45.840 --> 25:49.840 Because I want to reach here with you. I want to show you how we're going to work the last one 25:49.840 --> 25:55.840 for the foundation, it gets a little crazy a bit sometimes. So, I'm going to work on some more for the rest of the chain 25:55.840 --> 25:59.840 Until this one right here, we've got to reach the stitch marker, I'll meet you there 25:59.840 --> 26:03.840 so that I can show you how we finish off the chain area 26:05.840 --> 26:12.840 So, I have arrived at that stitch where I left off that stitch marker. So, I'm just going to remove it. And.. 26:14.840 --> 26:18.840 So, that's it. So, now that means I have a total of 26 stitches at me 26:18.840 --> 26:23.840 So, now it might look like I'm having to twist the work. Since I was working to the back bump 26:23.840 --> 26:27.840 and this is what this is going to look like. It's going to be active, or it's going to look like 26:27.840 --> 26:38.840 you're having to twist your work a bit, just like this. And continue working now into the back loop 26:38.840 --> 26:47.840 for the rest of your work. So, now I've properly joined You have joined the beginning chain and the rest 26:47.840 --> 26:59.840 You can also adjust the zero here, but that's absolutely fine. So, this is now I have begun working my 43 row for the back 26:59.840 --> 27:04.840 So, obviously you're not going to see me for a bit. I'm going to continue off camera 27:04.840 --> 27:08.840 but the logic is just the same. Switching to that former neutral hook 27:08.840 --> 27:12.840 once I reach that stitch marker again, and then turning, then doing the back 27:12.840 --> 27:18.840 working into the back loop. But so far, this is not how work is looking like 27:18.840 --> 27:23.840 So, so far we've got one row of our back panel. So, I'm going to continue working off camera 27:23.840 --> 27:30.840 going back and forth, and the next time you see me, I am going to have a total of 43 rows for my back 27:30.840 --> 27:36.840 And then I'm going to show you how I'm going to separate that back to finally make the left front panel 27:36.840 --> 27:43.840 So, let me see you in a bit. So, here I am 27:43.840 --> 27:49.840 I have done my 43 rows. I'm going to continue right here 27:49.840 --> 27:56.840 And I have already taken that stitch marker, iterating the stitch, just like I did at the beginning stitch 27:56.840 --> 28:00.840 coming from the top, coming down. I already worked my way up, so 28:00.840 --> 28:07.840 this is the door, and taking stitch marker is like this, and rotating up, and pull that stitch 28:07.840 --> 28:15.840 just before that last stitch marker. So, now I'm just going to make a total of 47 28:15.840 --> 28:23.840 just as needed on that side. So, one, and remember after that first thing that you made 28:23.840 --> 28:27.840 you're going to take your stitch marker again. I don't need the stitch marker anymore 28:31.840 --> 28:38.840 And this is just where you do not need that stitch. I'll mark it in that way 28:39.840 --> 28:49.840 So, one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, 10, 11, 12, 13 28:49.840 --> 29:01.840 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, and 27 29:01.840 --> 29:06.840 So, just as we did on that side, we're going to turn that chain 29:06.840 --> 29:12.840 the other way around, so, first row, and we're going to work in front of that bump 29:12.840 --> 29:19.840 So, turn that second chain, from the sixth, turn it around, and open up that bump 29:19.840 --> 29:26.840 crochet first half double crochet. And you're going to continue just as you did the other side 29:26.840 --> 29:31.840 all the way down. So, just for the sake of reminding, when you get your stitch marker, I'll meet you there 29:31.840 --> 29:36.840 and then I'll meet you forward, and you can do the rest by yourself. And you've got the same number 29:36.840 --> 29:41.840 for the other side, so you can get together off the stitch marker, which is three 29:42.840 --> 29:50.840 So, I have a list of stitches before the stitch marker. I'm just going to use my stitch marker 29:50.840 --> 29:59.840 and into that last one, I'm going to take my half double crochet 29:59.840 --> 30:06.840 and I'm going to take my double crochet, so that we can go into that first stitch right there 30:06.840 --> 30:14.840 and into the back loop only, to continue that next pattern. Continue crocheting half double crochet 30:19.840 --> 30:25.840 Just like so. So, I'm going to continue doing this for a total of twenty rows 30:25.840 --> 30:31.840 for extending it to the other front panel. I'm doing the left front panel for the main body 30:31.840 --> 30:40.840 and I've got my total of twenty rows. After you've done both sides 30:40.840 --> 30:45.840 or the whole body panel, it's now time to close, and start what you need to do 30:45.840 --> 30:49.840 So, I've already done one side, I'm not going to do this side yet 30:49.840 --> 30:55.840 however, all you're going to do is take that front panel, and you're going to go into that back panel 30:55.840 --> 31:00.840 just like so, and this is the part where I'm going to be using my yarn needle 31:00.840 --> 31:04.840 This is the front panel. Personally, I like to use my crochet hook, because there is a gap 31:04.840 --> 31:11.840 so I might be taking these pieces apart. So, I'm going to make sure the single crochet is in here 31:11.840 --> 31:15.840 so it's empty. I'm going to use a yarn needle. However, if you have a needle 31:15.840 --> 31:20.840 I absolutely hate. I actually think the needle that I'm going to be using 31:20.840 --> 31:24.840 holds much stronger than a new crochet needle, so, I'll just use a new needle 31:25.840 --> 31:34.840 So, I like to lay them straight, like so, and then, I'm just going to have to hold the corner right 31:34.840 --> 31:38.840 and have to finish the line right here. So, this is where I go to start the other 31:38.840 --> 31:43.840 all of the sides of the other pieces, for the center. Let's just make an opening for the neck 31:43.840 --> 31:52.840 So, this is where the neckline is starting or ending, and I'm just going to insert my hook into that front loop 31:52.840 --> 31:56.840 and into the back, or the front turning, and into the back 31:57.840 --> 32:07.840 and pull that loop loose. And I'm going to go and 32:08.840 --> 32:16.840 just repeat. And now, all I'm going to be doing is crocheting the top pieces 32:17.840 --> 32:34.840 single crocheting the front panel, and the back panel together. So, just, they're all four stitches 32:34.840 --> 32:40.840 but you're just going to try and make sure, making sure that you're trying to bring the back to align 32:41.840 --> 32:45.840 So, you don't want to go too far for one panel or the other 32:45.840 --> 32:49.840 because that way you still want them to be quite aligned. You don't want one to be so far apart 32:49.840 --> 32:54.840 that the best thing that you can do, just going back and forth, picking up the things that are aligning first 32:54.840 --> 33:07.840 and then you want to continue single crocheting all across. If I'm doing it too fast 33:07.840 --> 33:16.840 you can just pull through the two, and turn it off. And just about halfway through 33:19.840 --> 33:46.840 I'm going to turn it off. Just checking to see if everything is aligning correctly 33:46.840 --> 33:52.840 and it seems all together. And I'm going to take that out 34:02.840 --> 34:15.840 and turn it on. I'll have a look at that later on 34:16.840 --> 34:21.840 I don't know about this, you can always look into it later. That's what I was a little bit talking about 34:21.840 --> 34:28.840 You have to then connect that to the shoulder, the shoulder. So now 34:28.840 --> 34:37.840 we are going to have to single crochet around our seam, to, so that we can make those stitches more clear and visible 34:37.840 --> 34:43.840 the ones that we're going to be working into. So, I'm going to slip knot to this side 34:43.840 --> 34:51.840 and that knot will assist to be 5mm high, so that my single crochet stitches are most easier to work with 34:52.840 --> 34:59.840 Find that first stitch, of the side, which is this little thing right here 34:59.840 --> 35:05.840 and into that one, into the single crochet. Get rid of the stitch 35:05.840 --> 35:11.840 grab the stitch marker, and finish it. This is so because we want to be able to stitch this into the hole 35:11.840 --> 35:18.840 once we've worked our way all the way around. So now, the stitches are going to be so much easier for you to see 35:18.840 --> 35:23.840 I'm going to skip this process, this is really only for you to see 35:23.840 --> 35:31.840 because I find it easy to knot my stitches, but just because I'm not going to be doing a tutorial 35:31.840 --> 35:36.840 I want things to be as easy as possible. So the stitches are so much easier 35:36.840 --> 35:42.840 to see when working your way around, creating the single crochet. So I'm going to brush in the single crochet 35:42.840 --> 35:46.840 all the way down here, making sure I have plenty of stitch 35:46.840 --> 35:51.840 and I will be using the back of the needle to show you how to work your way around, and back up to the stitch marker 35:53.840 --> 35:59.840 So I have made my way further around, and now I'm about to finish the knot on the other side 36:05.840 --> 36:09.840 So that is going to be a bit harder, because this is bigger for foundation work 36:10.840 --> 36:16.840 or the chain that we made, or finish with it, and draws into the bottom 36:16.840 --> 36:21.840 So it's going to be a bit tighter, than the other side, which is absolutely fine 36:21.840 --> 36:27.840 So all I'm going to do is the same method, make sure I have a total of 26 stitches 36:27.840 --> 36:34.840 going up, all the way up until my stitch marker. So I'm going to continue making the single crochet 36:34.840 --> 36:40.840 and then I'm going to add stitch marker marks. Now I've worked my way all the way around 36:40.840 --> 36:44.840 and I've come back up to that stitch marker, for the third stitch that we made 36:44.840 --> 36:50.840 So on this one, we've got stitch marker, and I will stitch this into that first stitch we made 36:50.840 --> 37:06.840 to join the row. Same way, grab your scissors, and we need to cut off that one 37:07.840 --> 37:13.840 So now we see the stitch, so now we divide it into two stitches, and it will be needed for the top of my cake 37:13.840 --> 37:18.840 which is going to appear, which we are also going to work over, as well as into the sleeve 37:19.840 --> 37:24.840 So now, first part of the sleeve, you want to make your heart big and tight 37:25.840 --> 37:30.840 like this, and find that very area where your armpit is going to rest 37:30.840 --> 37:35.840 And then I will find this stitch. So it's just that this one comes to armpit 37:35.840 --> 37:40.840 and then you have to turn it around for the other arm, which is this one here 37:40.840 --> 37:52.840 and we make the one. So, I have the two together 37:52.840 --> 37:56.840 and now, this is going to be difficult, because that's the first one 37:56.840 --> 38:03.840 we're going to be making a K, we're going to be making a K65 38:03.840 --> 38:08.840 and the K65 will cover the neck of our armhole. If it's too small or too long for you 38:08.840 --> 38:12.840 remember, you can leave it in, and you tie it on your cardigan 38:13.840 --> 38:18.840 or over one side of your cardigan, tie it on, and see where that hinge is leading to 38:18.840 --> 38:23.840 So it should be leading just about down here, since after we work through it 38:23.840 --> 38:27.840 it might be much easier to do. So if this is just about near your palm 38:27.840 --> 38:31.840 that is absolutely fine. If it's smaller, this will be so much more 38:31.840 --> 38:41.840 If it's too much loose, this will be just as difficult. So, I'm going to be doing a total of 65 Ks 38:41.840 --> 38:47.840 That's in the first. So, this is not going to be the longest one-kama 38:47.840 --> 38:52.840 I'm going to pause the video, finish the one-kama, and I'll be right back 38:53.840 --> 38:59.840 So, I am back with my K65, and this is what it looks like so far 39:01.840 --> 39:07.840 When I lay my work flat. So, we're not going to switch 39:07.840 --> 39:12.840 because we're only going to be crocheting here, and this is the area where you're going to have to 39:12.840 --> 39:20.840 end the 65 Ks. So if you remember the foundation chain, as we've been doing all the normal time 39:20.840 --> 39:26.840 with the foundation chain, you work into the backbone to make sewing, or kama, so much easier 39:26.840 --> 39:30.840 So, you're going to grab your chain, and chain it as I'm doing it 39:30.840 --> 39:35.840 and we're going to be working into the first 10 stitches. And into the first 10 stitches 39:35.840 --> 39:46.840 we're going to be working slip stitches. Because we want the cardigan to have the hold at the bottom 39:46.840 --> 39:51.840 So that it holds onto our wrist. So, we're going to be working slip stitches 39:52.840 --> 39:57.840 So, into that first, or the second place of the hook, do it into the backbone 39:57.840 --> 40:04.840 and into the slip stitch. So, one, insert hook to the front of the hook 40:04.840 --> 40:12.840 and just pull through. Two. Insert hook to the front of the hook 40:12.840 --> 40:23.840 and pull through. Three. Four. Five. Six 40:27.840 --> 40:37.840 Seven. Eight. Nine. And finally, ten 40:37.840 --> 40:44.840 Grab that stitch marker, and please remember to like to end the stitch 40:44.840 --> 40:48.840 So, remember we're coming back down, we're coming back to the form of the knitting hook 40:48.840 --> 40:55.840 and the slip stitch. So, grab that place, and proceed with your half double crochet 40:55.840 --> 41:02.840 Just like we are doing. So, connecting to the rest of the armhole might be a bit tricky 41:02.840 --> 41:07.840 so I'm going to meet you right there, when I get there, and I want you to pay close attention 41:07.840 --> 41:12.840 when you get to connecting around the armhole. So, I'm going to meet you as I'm coming up 41:12.840 --> 41:18.840 and I'll meet you once I have the last chain before the armhole for me 41:19.840 --> 41:30.840 So now, after crocheting my whole way around, at my chain, we are now going to find that next chain 41:30.840 --> 41:35.840 So, this chain right here is the chain that we connect to the chain next to 41:35.840 --> 41:39.840 This one right here is the one next to mine. So, we're going to slip stitch 41:39.840 --> 41:43.840 and we're going to make a slip stitch. So, we're going to make a slip stitch 41:43.840 --> 41:52.840 and we're going to make a slip stitch. So, we're going to slip stitch into that single crochet to connect 41:54.840 --> 41:59.840 And then, slip stitch in the half double crochet, is quite a long stitch 41:59.840 --> 42:03.840 we are going to slip stitch into the next one. Just like that 42:05.840 --> 42:12.840 This is what happens when you do this technique. So, now to turn and start the new row 42:12.840 --> 42:16.840 instead of chaining one, we are going to slip stitch into one 42:16.840 --> 42:28.840 So, in total, we've slip stitched into two. So, in total, we've slip stitched into three single crochets around the armhole 42:28.840 --> 42:36.840 And then, we're going to turn, and we're going to slip the three stitches that we've slip stitched into 42:36.840 --> 42:42.840 and into that last half double crochet of the row, is where we're going to slip our first half double crochet 42:43.840 --> 42:50.840 And slip off loops to maintain that looped loop. So, whenever this is your first stitch, and it's going to be hard to see 42:50.840 --> 42:55.840 so, you have to place your stitch marker on that first stitch 42:55.840 --> 43:01.840 so that you don't miss it. And you're just going to half double crochet your way all the way down 43:01.840 --> 43:08.840 So, I'm going to go all the way down, and today, when I reach the stitch marker, I will slip stitch to the 4mm hook 43:08.840 --> 43:16.840 and proceed with the slip stitch. And again, I'm turning, slip stitching on back up 43:16.840 --> 43:21.840 slip stitch the 4mm half double crochet, and the back loop all the way back up 43:21.840 --> 43:27.840 and I will meet you up here for the second row, or the row two, I mean row three 43:27.840 --> 43:34.840 of how we're going to be connecting to the armhole here. So, continue with your half double crochet down 43:34.840 --> 43:43.840 and I'll meet you when we come back up, or row two. So, I'm just finished row three, and I've got one more stitch to work into 43:43.840 --> 43:50.840 and the top stitch, actually, is very hard to find. So, what I'm going to do, is I'm going to throw that stitch right here 43:50.840 --> 43:55.840 that I have to work into. So, you're going to have to do everything in your power 43:55.840 --> 44:04.840 to find that loop, to work into the top loop. Just like that, and 44:04.840 --> 44:09.840 you should have something like this, that's what it looks like. So, remember earlier 44:09.840 --> 44:18.840 we slipped this into three single crochets, one, one, one, one. This time, we're only going to slip this into two single crochets 44:18.840 --> 44:23.840 So, we're going to slip this into one, to turn the row 44:23.840 --> 44:28.840 and then to begin the new row, we're also just going to slip this into one, in turns 44:28.840 --> 44:33.840 So, when you're doing this, if I write out B, that will make it to right 44:33.840 --> 44:42.840 since the single crochet stitch is right at the end. So, we don't want it to right, and we don't want it to narrow 44:42.840 --> 44:47.840 So, what we're going to be doing, is, on this row, is, each and every other row, we're going to be alternating between 44:47.840 --> 44:52.840 slip stitching to three, and slip stitching into two. So, I think the order is going to be pretty easy 44:52.840 --> 44:57.840 So, just place your stitch marker on this row, to know that you've slipped this into one 44:57.840 --> 45:01.840 and the following row, you need to slip stitch. I mean, you slip stitch into two 45:01.840 --> 45:06.840 and the next row, you need to slip stitch into three. Well, you said, well, I don't really need to do 45:06.840 --> 45:11.840 because I only want to interseed, when I'm working to other side 45:11.840 --> 45:16.840 So, first you slip stitch into two, you're going to find the fourth V 45:16.840 --> 45:22.840 for the left, half double crochet V, and stitch your first, half double crochet V 45:22.840 --> 45:31.840 of your four. So, now that I've worked a few stitches, I'm just going to grab my stitch marker 45:33.840 --> 45:40.840 and place it on the side of the row, just so I'm remembering that I've slip stitched into two 45:40.840 --> 45:45.840 on this row, and that the next row, I need to slip stitch into three 45:45.840 --> 45:49.840 And that's what we're going to be doing, for the three square back and forth 45:49.840 --> 45:55.840 half double crochet, and then, intercrossing stitch, all the way down, and back up 45:55.840 --> 45:59.840 Don't forget to slip stitch, so you're going to follow the intercrossing stitch 45:59.840 --> 46:03.840 and you get to the bottom side. And you're going to do that 46:03.840 --> 46:09.840 three aways, all around. Don't forget, this is a stitch, where the stitch is coming from 46:09.840 --> 46:15.840 it's a stitch, and you're going to be working all the way around, up until the last one, right here 46:15.840 --> 46:19.840 And that's what I'm going to need, once you have got your whole stitch 46:19.840 --> 46:24.840 and then we're going to connect it together, so that then we can get started on the very last part 46:24.840 --> 46:28.840 which is our collar. And then we're going to prepare it, of course 46:28.840 --> 46:34.840 after you've done this, we've done this, and added this collar, you're going to want to go on the row 46:34.840 --> 46:38.840 that's right there, and then, just see, you're going to want to go on the row, to the other side 46:38.840 --> 46:42.840 which is actually where the bow is. So, let me just move the cross on there 46:42.840 --> 46:46.840 and I will move my back, so that we can connect these together 46:47.840 --> 46:52.840 At the end of this leaf, this is what we should be looking for 46:52.840 --> 46:56.840 so at the end, at this end, if you end it up here 46:56.840 --> 47:03.840 it's absolutely fine, the next process is to make a knot. So, you can either just fasten the knot 47:03.840 --> 47:07.840 leave a long tail, and connect your yarn needle, but like I said earlier 47:07.840 --> 47:14.840 I love to connect this collar, and crochet hook. So, I will be using the single needle crochet hook 47:15.840 --> 47:19.840 and I have just chained one, after I've finished in this part 47:19.840 --> 47:24.840 So, what you're going to do, is you're going to align, the other side 47:24.840 --> 47:28.840 and get the side of this leaf, and you're going to insert your crochet hook 47:28.840 --> 47:33.840 into that back loop of your first leaf, as I said to do 47:33.840 --> 47:38.840 and then you're going to find the first leaf, from the other side, which is this one right here 47:38.840 --> 47:44.840 and insert your hook, into that back loop of that leaf. So, now I've captured both ends 47:44.840 --> 47:52.840 of my, of my, bind of the leaf, and then I'm just going to slip stitch, through 47:52.840 --> 47:56.840 So, you can either connect to the slip stitch, or you can connect to the single crochet 47:56.840 --> 48:00.840 that is all up to you. Let me do the next one with you 48:00.840 --> 48:05.840 Find the next stitch, which is this one right here, insert your hook 48:05.840 --> 48:10.840 into the back loop, and then find the next stitch, on the other side 48:10.840 --> 48:16.840 insert your hook, into the back loop again, and, slip stitch through 48:17.840 --> 48:24.840 Find the next stitch, back loop, other side, back loop as well 48:25.840 --> 48:34.840 slip stitch through, and we're just going to continue doing it. And 48:35.840 --> 48:45.840 slip stitch through. Just like so 48:47.840 --> 48:52.840 We're going to proceed, doing this, on the whole length. This is what it looks like on this end 48:52.840 --> 48:56.840 When I hold it like this, it's almost hard to see where the slip stitches are 48:56.840 --> 49:02.840 and when I turn it around, it's also very weak, and it's also very thick yarn 49:02.840 --> 49:08.840 That's why I prefer this method, to also move. So, I'm just going to proceed, continuing 49:08.840 --> 49:13.840 as is the pattern going on here, wrap this little loop, into the back loop of both sides 49:13.840 --> 49:20.840 and slip stitch. Back loop of this side, back loop of that side 49:20.840 --> 49:26.840 and slip stitch. And then I'll continue doing this, all the way to the end 49:26.840 --> 49:31.840 Or until I reach the armpit. If you start from the armpit area, you're going to proceed doing that 49:31.840 --> 49:35.840 all the way, until the tip. So let me go up, come up 49:35.840 --> 49:40.840 and finish doing this, and then I'll let you see me work the whole way, and then I'll meet you at the end 49:40.840 --> 49:45.840 and we'll do the final step together, for what will turn out to be the final part of our crochet party 49:45.840 --> 49:53.840 being the collar. So I have just completed doing all the way 49:53.840 --> 50:02.840 to the armpit area. I just slip stitched, and so far, this is what this looks like 50:02.840 --> 50:08.840 You can see, this is the armpit area, and you may turn it the other way around 50:09.840 --> 50:17.840 it's a very neat, normal kind of collar, that is it. So now 50:17.840 --> 50:24.840 the next step is to chain one, and fasten off. Chain one 50:25.840 --> 50:32.840 and, fasten off. So I'll be right back, and we'll come back to you 50:32.840 --> 50:37.840 So all done and posted, that will mark, the end of this part, so be sure to repeat what we did for this piece 50:37.840 --> 50:42.840 with the other pieces. So pause the video, and let me meet you, after we've done this for this piece 50:47.840 --> 50:51.840 So this is the final part, of our crochet party guys, you wanna 50:51.840 --> 50:56.840 grab that 4mm crochet hook, we're still working with the 4mm, and if you know 50:56.840 --> 51:01.840 just about do. And, the next part, you wanna go all the way around 51:01.840 --> 51:08.840 working on, to the first stitch, which is very important, and you're gonna go all the way around 51:08.840 --> 51:13.840 to the single crochet, so you're gonna go all the way around, from the top 51:14.840 --> 51:20.840 around the middle, come down, all the way back to the base 51:20.840 --> 51:24.840 And this is for us, this is so that it's easy for us to 51:24.840 --> 51:29.840 work our way back, into the single crochet area, just as we did for the 51:29.840 --> 51:35.840 um, arm opening. I'm gonna skip that part, because I really do not need to 51:35.840 --> 51:39.840 I do not struggle, doing the stitches, and just doing the arm opening 51:39.840 --> 51:43.840 is absolutely fine with me, but for the absolute beginner, you wanna make sure 51:43.840 --> 51:48.840 you do not skip this stage. So please, go on, to the single crochet 51:48.840 --> 51:57.840 just pause the video, and meet me right back. So, if you're 51:57.840 --> 52:01.840 one time, just doing the single crochet, you should have ended, at the 52:01.840 --> 52:07.840 very last, stitch, or the very last stitch, which could be this point 52:07.840 --> 52:13.840 for you. So now, the next part, is we are gonna, make a chain 52:13.840 --> 52:25.840 of seven. Just like so. And 52:25.840 --> 52:29.840 just as we've been working, the very first chain, we work into the back one 52:29.840 --> 52:34.840 So this part, is only gonna be, backward in single crochets. So turn that chain 52:34.840 --> 52:39.840 into the back one, so since it's back in seven, we're gonna be left with, er 52:39.840 --> 52:44.840 six stitches. So if that second chain, is a hook, please do a single crochet 52:47.840 --> 52:54.840 Find the next stitch, please do a single crochet. So, that's two 52:56.840 --> 53:07.840 three, four, five, and 53:09.840 --> 53:14.840 six. So this bit came out, of this end right here, where it came from 53:14.840 --> 53:18.840 or where we need that, on the beginning. So we're just gonna go back, again 53:18.840 --> 53:22.840 to join, to finish the row. To begin another row, since this is a single crochet 53:22.840 --> 53:26.840 we will chain one, so we're just going to, slip stitch, into the next of the 53:26.840 --> 53:32.840 negative stitch. So we're back at our, chain one, and now we're gonna turn 53:33.840 --> 53:37.840 back stitch. So all we're doing for this, branch is exactly what, we've been doing 53:37.840 --> 53:41.840 to make the decrease. Only that we're only, going to be six stitches, into one 53:41.840 --> 53:45.840 to connect the row, and so six stitches, will be six stitches, into three stitches 53:45.840 --> 53:52.840 and turning, all the way around. So, six stitches, into one, will be six stitches 53:52.840 --> 53:58.840 back stitch. Right there, and find the third page, and into the back stitch 53:58.840 --> 54:03.840 or back loop, you're gonna push the, single crochet, so that's the first 54:04.840 --> 54:15.840 second, third, fourth, fifth, sixth 54:17.840 --> 54:23.840 and seventh, so I have seven, but I should have six. First stitch we made 54:24.840 --> 54:31.840 we went into, all of the stitch stitches, stitching. So that, is very good 54:31.840 --> 54:36.840 that you always keep count. So I went into, both of these stitch stitches, when I should have skipped the two 54:37.840 --> 54:42.840 So remember, on page seven, you see you should have six. So that's one 54:42.840 --> 54:47.840 two, three, four, five, six. So this one right here, should be my first stitch. One 54:48.840 --> 54:59.840 two, three, four, five, and six. Chain one 55:00.840 --> 55:04.840 and ten. Into the bottom of that stitch, this is the last one of that row 55:07.840 --> 55:18.840 One, two, three, four, two 55:20.840 --> 55:31.840 three, four, five, and, six 55:32.840 --> 55:38.840 On the next available stitch, you do this one right here, slip stitch to the end of the row 55:41.840 --> 55:46.840 So beginning here, find that next available stitch. So it's stitch and turn 55:47.840 --> 55:53.840 First, this is your first two stitches, and as a result, you're going to go to the next available stitch 56:02.840 --> 56:10.840 And six. Chain one, and ten. This is our fifth stitch. And you can count these normally 56:12.840 --> 56:23.840 First one is your fifth. One, two, three, four 56:25.840 --> 56:36.840 five, and six. And then it's the next available stitch. Slip stitch to the end of the row 56:38.840 --> 56:42.840 And slip stitch to the beginning of the row. So as a result, you have four interhangs here 56:43.840 --> 56:53.840 And the next one, this is what it's looking like 56:54.840 --> 56:58.840 And that will be the beginning of the row. But first of all, this is what it's looking like 56:58.840 --> 57:03.840 And this is our band beginning to form. So, you are just going to continue doing this 57:03.840 --> 57:07.840 all the way around. You're going to just sit down for a bit. You're going to continue doing this 57:07.840 --> 57:12.840 all the way around, all the way around, and back to the base 57:13.840 --> 57:17.840 Right here. Where I will meet you so that you can fasten off and you will not end 57:17.840 --> 57:21.840 And put our cotton on. So let me meet you as we get to the end of the corner 57:24.840 --> 57:29.840 And so I have both ends. I have finished working my corner all the way down 57:30.840 --> 57:34.840 What I have to do is we're going to I'm going to grab my yarn needle 57:36.840 --> 57:41.840 and to the very end of the yarn needle I'm going to 57:42.840 --> 57:47.840 put your hook into your tail. I wish I would have done much more with the tail because that would have been 57:47.840 --> 57:51.840 so much easier to use it. And I just like to insert my 57:52.840 --> 57:58.840 needle on the side just like I'm doing right now. Just ease it in 57:58.840 --> 58:05.840 up and forth, up and forth. With that yarn tail and that needle on 58:06.840 --> 58:10.840 let me just pull that needle through and just like that the tail is invisible 58:11.840 --> 58:18.840 you can't even see it. So let's repeat the same thing for the other side 58:18.840 --> 58:24.840 Insert your hook and then just leave your hook running around the needle 58:25.840 --> 58:39.840 back and forth like so. And if you feel 58:39.840 --> 58:43.840 you're closing the needle just pull that needle through and that's it 58:43.840 --> 58:47.840 You just can always pick it up now or you can always use it later 58:47.840 --> 58:51.840 And generally we keep that for if we have any yarn sticking in it to see 58:51.840 --> 58:56.840 or if there aren't any yarn areas. So this side I am just going to 58:56.840 --> 59:09.840 push this yarn in. There we go. And there we go 59:09.840 --> 59:16.840 Our crochet cardigan is all done and neat and beautiful. It's nice and warm 59:16.840 --> 59:23.840 I really treasure it all because I could not resist and I just love it. I can't believe 59:23.840 --> 59:27.840 I don't have to care if it's not hot. I hope I don't and I hope that 59:27.840 --> 59:31.840 I can just keep it to myself so that it keeps nice and warm 59:31.840 --> 59:35.840 in the cold weather.
