For the last few months I’ve been knitting and crocheting up a storm. My main focus lately has been on big cozy beginner friendly blanket cardigans. I’m really fascinated by all the different ways you can knit a rectangle or square into a sweater. Since I love to knit while I watch T.V. in the evening, I don’t like to work on patterns that require me to do a lot of counting, measuring, or increasing/decreasing stitches.
I haven’t forgotten about my crocheting friends either! I have a crochet version of this blanket cardigan coming out soon in the next few days!

can you please explain a little more where stiches go, to sew up? Thank you.
Hi Amanda, as shown in the photo, you fold the corners towards each other, and stitch from the middle, halfway to the other end.
There looks like a seam up the back? is this made in 2 parts and stitched together before you sew the arms?
It’s actually not necessary to do 2 parts, the pattern is written to be knitted in one piece.
