I've been crocheting this cardigan since last week. Now, I have only two sleeves to crochet and the neck. I thought I want to give this cardigan a hoodie. What do you think?

It looks very pretty! How long does it take you to make one cardigan?

The last cardigan I made took me about two months, I think. For this one, I already took like two weeks to get to this point. I'm hoping to finish this by the end of the week or maybe by the end of the first week of March. I get bored very fast so I usually project hopping.

@besweet Not really. It depends on the design, I suppose. I usually get ideas for new projects from YouTube, Pinterest and Instagram. I’m on Instagram and pictures of all my projects are posted there.

@UmiNoor The sleeves are the most difficult right? Hope you can find many other creative designs to continue after this cardigan.

No, it's for myself but if anyone wants this, I will definitely gift it to that person.

@UmiNoor i like it but you know what I don't like with crocheted shirt or this, It is very heavy when wet.

@Mavic123456 It is heavy even when it's not wet. Crocheted items are usually thicker than knitted items. If I want the crocheted cardigan to be less heavy, I need to use thinner yarns but that will make the project slow to finish.

Thank you. It takes a lot of time for me to reach this point. I hope to finish this cardigan by the end of this week.

@UmiNoor It might look good with a hoodie. Either way it looks fine so far.
