Puff stitch raglan Cardigan.


I find it helpful to have videos, so I made one for when you are splitting for sleeves. So the video is of the first row when splitting for sleeves :-)

Mind you, the number of chain st I chained under the arm might be different for you. I made this video with hook size 4,5 mm and in size XL. I lacked a little width over the chest so I added 8 chains.

So, when I crochet I like to be able to bring with me my yarn ends. This way I don't have that many ends to sew. Quite frankly - I find it kind of boring. It might look like its a little fuzz to do it this way, but I promise you - its not :-)

The first video is when I bring with me two yarn ends, because I have a lot of ends on this cardigan. When I have crocheted a few stitches I like to bring with me one of the ends a couple of stitches longer - as a rule - not the one I am going to bring with me to the next row.

So to clarify - the one I bring with me a couple of stitches more are the one who I will sew right away.




In my second video I am on my way back again. One of my yarn ends is already sewn in and its only one thread left. I will crochet this with me over a few stitches, then use my needle to just bring it into the stitch itself, then cut it.

That is it :-)
