This is the first time I’ve felt like I can actually attempt a wearable. I’ve only done blankets so far but this pattern seems simple enough for me to do it and feel confident it will come out. Thank you! It’s gorgeous 🧶

I just finished this pattern using Caron cotton cakes in lighthouse and it turned out beautifully!! Great pattern, easy to follow (I didn’t do colour changes as it’s a self striping yarn I used)

[laurelgirard]

I’m sick right now and your wonderful cardigan would be so cozy right now! Thanks M J

[sashaandrews]

Absolutely loved this! It was super fun to make and extremely detailed and easy to follow being that it was my first piece of clothing I crocheted! Thank you so much for sharing this beautiful pattern.

[taylorlt]

I love your designs so much! This year I plan to tackle my biggest fear, wearables. I have saved several of your tutorials in my attempt to learn. They scared me so bad, but I am now equally excited. Keep up all of your great work!

I love love love the way you explain everything, a lot of channels will over explain and some don’t give enough information! You are that perfect in between 👌. I Seriously want to make all the sweater patterns on your channel ❤️

[Wildflorajewelry]

This is such a lovely cardigan! I have never made wearables before but this one caught my eye. Im currently making a granny square blanket for my baby but as soon as I’m done, this is next on my list!!! Thank you for sharing your beautiful work ❤

[alauraparrish]

Oh MJ; I love this sweater. I do believe this is the one I'll be making for me.... I usually make things for everyone else, , , lol this one is for me. I thank you for your wonderful video I do hope you are feeling better too.

[nautsrenata]

Wow this is awesome! I'm in the progress of completing my very first cardigan, made all the pieces and just have to sew it all together. I wish I would have seen this before lol but I absolutely look forward to trying this method next! So cool, I wouldn't have imagined being able to work up a cardigan in one piece like this, thanks so much 🥰

[DorieH]

Every patternbI bought have been nothing short of amazing. This pattern is no exception. 😊

I've been looking to try to make my first cardigan and I think I'm finally going to attempt it with this pattern! Thank you so much as always for sharing your great designs!
Time to break out of my comfort zone.

Very nice and simple cardigan. I love the colors and how you did your blocks. I’m going to try to make it. Thank you so much, it’s gorgeous!😊👏🏼❤️

I love this pattern and your tutorial is easy to understand. I’m recovering from a second carpal tunnel surgery and I have to wait six weeks before I can do anything. So can’t wait to make this pattern! Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful work ❤
