Hi hans220212 8504671, sorry that you are having trouble with this pattern! Once R1 says "turn" you will begin working R2. The "4 (4, 4, 4, 5) shells" at the end of R1 refers to the number of shells you will have completed in R1 depending on which size you are crocheting. I hope this helps! - Laura, editor of AllFreeCrochet

I'm having a problem with this pattern. Perhaps I'm just missing something, but for the back, how many times do you repeat Rows 1 and 2 before starting the Armhole Shaping? Anyone? Please, HELP!
lwagner48 3802379
Apr 29, 2019
According to pattern rows 1 and 2 are not repeated. Row 3 starts the armhole shaping

This is definitely a statement piece of art! The cardigan pattern is drop dead gorgeous! I can see that I'll need to add this on to my "work up to" list of items to crochet. There are several things on here I need to tackle along the way like working with bamboo yarn, decrease double crochet and shell stitch. I am grateful that larger sizes are included. This will clearly give me something to look forward to creating!

This is the perfect sweater for a cool night out on the town. Just what you need when its too chilly for a tank top and too warm for long sleeves. This sweater falls right between the two. If you are like me you always need an extra layer when you go into a restaurant where it is always chilly.

I think this sweater looks amazing, the pattern is long so I might find it a little difficult especially since I've never attempted an adult item other than a scarf or hat!

Incredibly gorgeous! I made this a few years ago and, like many others, had to tinker with it a little. I also would like to warn others do NOT use a boucle yarn for this. It didn't have enough body to keep from drooping.

I have been trying to work this pattern and its Not. In row 3 it says sc in 2 ch space, well there is no 2ch space. Why doesn't it work. I dont understand how a pattern can be printed without being tested. I have so many I have started that don't work. Can someone please help me. I see it has been made by some people.helpppp

This is stunning! Can't wait to choose a yarn, I think I'll work it up in a very smooth cotton or cotton blend, just to get the most wear out of it. Probably in Black, Red or White. If it turns out as wonderful as I think it will I may make a second in a Darker Denim Blue. Thanks for the pattern!

Try this link for the corrected pattern: http://www.redheart.com/files/patterns/pdf/SN0113_ == corr.pdf Also if you look at the last page, you'll notice that there is a seam just below the armhole so you have to work the top half of front & back and then the bottom is worked by the "edging", I think. I'm working on it but haven't finished yet.
lnkeenan 8991140

Has anyone actually finished making the cardigan? Are the instructions accurate? I'm confused with the armhole starting at row3. Is this correct? Are there revisions to this pattern? Thank you.

Just starting the cardigan pattern for a size small. I was confused at first for the back pattern, but I realized that the pattern should have started with "fsc 56". Basically the foundation chain was missing 4 more stitches. Now the pattern makes more sense. : )
nryng
Jul 19, 2014
Did you finish making this cardigan and are the instructions correct? I want to make the 2XX. If you had to add 4 more stitches for the size small, do you know how many I would have to add for the size 2xx?

Did anyone ever come up with an answer to whether or not the armhole shaping really does begin on row three of the sweater? I want to crochet this pattern, but I'm worried about beginning because of some of the comments here.
katieandjames 5846 726
Nov 08, 2014
This is not my pattern, but I dove in and made the sweater. Yes! The arm hole shaping really does start with Row 3. The sweater is different in that respect but once you do all the edging at the end, it all makes sense. It's a beautiful sweater and I had no problems. I just followed the pattern exactly as written. Good Luck! :D

Do I really start the armhole shaping on the third row? Love the sweater and really want to know.

I'm trying to work this beautiful sweater up now. I promised one to each of my daughters...but I'm confused by the pattern. Seems to be quite a few mistakes. The armhole shaping beginning in the 3rd row of the back, for example. And the number of DC's done at the end of row 2 and 3 just don't mesh. Anyone know anything about any revisions of this pattern that might be out???
vivianwilliams1 72 54022
Aug 20, 2013
Made the dc's mesh but just don't know about the armhole Think I will try the front of the sweater and see if that works.
elainesue20 276319 9

The cardigan is awesome; HOWEVER I wonder why the armhole shaping is done on row 3 of the back. Is part of the pattern missing? Please tell me if I'm missing something; I would love to make this sweater. Thanks, Elaine Sue

Regarding your verbiage on the Mermaid Filigree Cardian: the word explicit is not appropriate here, and I believe the writer intended the word to be exquisite. Check your dictionary.

I second the fitting. It always improves a garment so much when it lays right. And the scallops are nice, but there may be a few too many of them on the coller. I'd make the coller slimmer.

Beautiful sweater. Wish my project list was a bit shorter. I would add this to it. Can we petition someone to lengthen the days? :)

Cute sweater! Is the yarn from the drawing for this sweater specifically or is it a bunch of yarn? Heck - either way - love yarn!

I love the fact that the pattern includes larger sizes. I hate trying to figure that out on my own when it's not included! Thanks for that! Hoping mine turns out as pretty as the picture!

That is one gorgeous sweater, but it's one hellaciously long set of instructions. Should I attempt it???

I just finished making this sweater in Feb. It turned out beautiful and I've received many compliments on the sweater. I did add an additional pattern repeat to make it longer as I have a long waist. If you are on Ravelry there was a CAL that was helpful for many.

I'm dying to make this sweater but can't get past the first few rows. Can you please contact me and let me know if you found any errors in the pattern, or did it work out for you as written. Thanks. Darla

"The edging around the sweater is just explicit." I think you mean "just exquisite", in which case I agree! Though certainly that neckline would be "explicit" without a cami underneath. ;)
