Evergreen Cardigan

By: Brianna Iaropoli

"What is the longest that you have ever worked on a project you finished? For me, I would have to say it is this project, the Evergreen Cardigan! I started this project a year ago. I picked it up and put it so many time I lost count! But I am beyond thrilled to finally be releasing this Free Crochet Cardigan Pattern for you! I really love the stitch combo and yarn and it had to be perfect! Once I finally got close to finishing the cardigan and began to think about sizing…the design came to a halt…you see, this cardigan is worked in a very large multiple. If you have ever tried designing, you know the importance of knowing your multiple for sizing. When that multiple is large it can make sizing more difficult.So what I decided to do was to give size ranges. For example, XS/S, which I am wearing in the photo. I am generally a S/M in women’s sizes, so the XS/S is fitted on me. There is a size chart for reference with the actual measurements so you can choose the best size for you!"

Hi, Brianna. I have printed your pattern, but I cannot make heads nor tails of your sizing chart. Worse, when I google how to measure for crocheting sweaters, I get too many different answers. My husband did a cross-back measurement and got 16". He got 6" for the armhole measurement. My bust is 42". Your pattern count doesn't go high enough for a 42" bust, and the back and armhole measurements (mine) belong in two completely different sizes. Please help! I absolutely adore this pattern and I need something to help me feel pretty and feminine again, no matter my size. I want to make the Sera cardigan, too, but one feeling of failure at a time is enough for me. Please tell me how you arrived at the measurements you put into your sizing chart. Maybe there's a middle ground for me somewhere...
