Hey everyone! Jessica from The Hook Nook again and I’m excited to get started on week THREE of our crochet along making my Evangeline Cardigan pattern over here on the Furls Crochet blog! You guys haven’t given up yet, have you?! We now get to begin the sleeves and pockets! Next week is going to be the MOST fun week watching it all come together - keep on trucking!
Note: We will be working the sleeves flat, starting at the cuff. You will begin with your contrast color for the creation of the cuffs before finishing off and attaching your main color for the remainder of the sleeve. Once the sleeve has been made, we will then seam them into a tube/sleeve shape using coordinating yarn to prevent any view of the seam on the outside. Along with the sleeves, we will be creating the pockets, which are made in two pieces. We will make the main color portion of the pocket which will be an easy square using the moss stitch. We will also make the contrast color portion of the pocket which will be an easy rectangle using the same stitch. When we assemble the pockets, we will be first attaching the contrast piece onto the main color square by folding it over the top of the square and sewing it into place using a yarn needle and coordinating yarn.
