What Skill Level Is This Pattern Suitable For?
This long crochet pocket cardigan pattern will be a quick and fun project for beginners.
To be able to work it, you should know basic stitches, especially half double crochets, as the garment is made mostly with this stitch. Apart from that, you will also use some front post and back post stitches to create a beautiful ribbing.
Materials Needed for Briar Pocket Cardigan
To get that amazing cozy look from the photos, make sure that you use medium-weight yarn. The pattern calls for Lion Brand Heartland, which is a 100% acrylic aran yarn with incredible softness and a light feel.
A 6.50 mm crochet hook will help you obtain the right gauge when crafting this crochet cardigan. But if needed, consider switching to a larger or smaller hook.
Can I Make This Crochet Cardigan in Different Sizes?
The Briar Pocket Cardigan can be adjusted up to 7 different sizes, so you are sure to find your perfect fit. The pattern provides instructions for adult women’s sizes ranging from XS to 3XL.
If you’re not sure which one will suit you best, measure your body and follow the sizing guide on the designer’s blog. The number of stitches required for each size is always specified in brackets.
