I am thrilled to announce that the newest crochet pattern from Heart Hook Home, the Cozy Coed Cardigan pattern, is READY! This pattern was months in the making, and I am pleased to say that it might just be my favorite pattern to date. Yes, really!

Cozy Coed Cardigan

The Cozy Coed Cardigan was sparked as a result of the Painted Canyon Cardigan which featured horizontal rows. This pattern, however, is created using vertical rows. A component which many of us are no doubt admiring. My husband Paul and I had a fun little photo shoot and I’ve shared my favorites of the photos below. With this cardigan he is modeling the 2XL size.

The Cozy Coed Cardigan pattern is available on Ravelry here. This pattern includes adult sizes: Small, Small Tall, Medium, Medium Tall, Large, Large Tall, Extra Large, Extra Large Tall, 2XL, 2XL Tall, 3XL, 3XL Tall, 4XL, and 4XL Tall!

The body of the cardigan is made up of all Half Double Crochet while the edging used both Front Post/Back Post Half Double and Front Post/Back Post Double Crochet. Do not be intimidated by these stitches! I love them, and I think you will too if you haven’t fallen in love already. If you need a refresher, here is a tutorial for those stitches. They are easier than you think! And don’t they look nice?

I just love this cardigan! I absolutely want to see your finished cardigans as well so please share photos with me by tagging @HeartHookHome on Instagram and Twitter, and by sharing in the Heart Hook Home Crochet Community group on Facebook!

Get the Cozy Coed Cardigan pattern here.

Don’t forget that the children’s sizes are free individually:

Get the 3 – 6 month size here.
Get the 12 month size here.
Get the 2/3T size here.
Get the 4/5T size here.
Get the 6/8 youth size here.
Get the 8/10 youth size here.
Get the 10/12 youth size here.
Get the 14/16 youth size here.

I’ve decided now that I’m finished with the pattern that I will take the size medium and add extra ribbing so that I will wear it myself. It’s just a tad too small for me and I wanted an outstanding collar anyway. Add to it and we’ve got a win-win! When I get that ribbing finished and the zipper added I will add photos of the finished product to this post! Can’t wait!

In this set of photos, Paul is modeling the XL size. He can wear either on a regular basis, and he says they are true to size (when on gauge, of course).

You can use either 3/4″ buttons (no buttonholes necessary!) or add a snazzy zipper instead. Here’s a tutorial for adding a zipper to crochet.

I hope you love this cardigan as much as Paul and I do! Remember that I will be adding more photos after I alter the medium size for myself. Can’t wait!

What yarn would you recommend for this pattern? I live in Israel and most of the yarn I have to order online. Not every website will send to my country and the yarn sold here is from Turkey most of it doesn't have the weight of it written on it. I am still in the prosses of teaching myself how to crochet and knit and would love to make this for my partner as a gift for his birthday. Would love the help. Thank you, Leora

Ashlea, I've been crocheting about a year now and my husband saw your pattern and asked me to make it for him. I have to tell you I had the sweats (not a hot flash that time, just pure panic!) buying the yarn because I thought I might have gotten in a little over my head. Your pattern was very easy for me to understand and all the links to stitches I was not familiar with AND the companion video were SO helpful!! I finished it in 5 days! He was thrilled and I was stunned! :D Thank you!

Can I just tell you how wonderful you are! I love all your patterns and because I don’t get out often, they do keep me busy! Thank you for choosing crochet and keeping what I thought was once a lost art alive! Keep on designing sweetie.

I've got a question regarding the cozy coed cardigan. I'm on the part pertaining to the edging/collar. My question is, how do I start row 1 hdc (as in where do I insert the hook). Thanks and happy hookin'

  Hi Shelia! I insert my hook into the vert first stitch on the bottom right, if I were wearing the cardigan. Does that help?

SO sorry for this basic question. :) When you say Body Circumference, are you referring to the widest measurement around the belly?

Love your patterns. Is there an easier way to navigate through your website. Like if I want to see what kind of hats you have, is there a catogory for "hats" that I can click on that will bring up all the hat posts? I dont have time to look through your whole blog for patterns . TY!!

Great pattern Ashlea! I’m working on the large youth size 14/16 for my grandson, but for some reason, I’m thinking it’s going to be too small. I may have to do the men’s small for him. He’s 12, But is about 5’9 and thin. Oh well....it’s the thought that counts.

Too much sadness and drama on this site anymore. Everyone asking for prayers for people and pets, telling their life stories, especially the bad, sad, sickly dramatic parts..supposed to be a happy Crochet site. Was the best, now it isn’t It’s okay if you think I am wrong or rude. Just isn’t fun here anymore. Sorry

  Hi Susan, I'm sorry to hear that you aren't enjoying the Facebook group as much as you once were. I could tell that I needed help, and with well over 50,000 people it is no wonder. Crazy! I did just add several new moderators for this very reason. We are doing our best over there, and remember you can always come straight here to HeartHookHome.com and find everything I share there as well.

  Thank you Shannon!! I am still in "recovery mode" from creating these. After a big pattern release I have to take a week or so to hit my "reset" button before I can work on anything else. Ha! I'm so glad you love it, and let me know how your husband likes it as well!
