Knit A Chunky Cardigan With Me

hello!

This isn't meant to be a tutorial, I just wanted to make a walkthrough on how I knitted this sweater. I've included short clips of how to cast on, knit a KFB, cast off, etc in the video, but all you need to know before knitting this cardigan is how to knit and purl! I improvised my own pattern and measured everything along the way by holding it up to my body. Timestamps below:

Yarn: https://www.joann.com/buttercream-coz...
6.5mm needle: shorturl.at/nuK38

Tapestry needle: shorturl.at/foJQ3
36in long cable needle: hand-me-downs, don't know the brand or needle gauge. Any needle size between 6mm-10mm (depending on how tight you want the ribbing to be) should work fine, as long as the cable is long enough!
