Crocheting my dream Pinterest sweater 

Someone probably already mentioned but the reason it was wavy after the ribbing is because you increased by putting more blue stitches than green ribbing rows! Also I would HIGHLY suggest using a single or half double crochet stitch for the ribbing! It will allow more stretch and go by sooo much faster

I was once told by a phenomenal knitter/ crochet 92 yr old woman….there are no mistakes only character in our projects. If you wanted a perfect article buy one machine made! Love ❤️ your sweater!

Thank you for almost completely eradicating my fear of making a sweater. You taught me that it is okay to not be perfect, and messups are inevitable. Feel inspired

Jenna is a whole FASHION DESIGNER

I appreciate Jenna’s attitude soo much she makes me so happy

a little tip.. when you do the ribbing you can do a row of single crochets after finishing it „on top“ like on the side you want your blue yarn to go later.. then it‘s easier to find places to go in with the blue yarn later and it looks a bit more even? I hope I explained it good enough in my bad english🤓

yessss jenna crocheting is everything

I thought Benson was your husband and when you called him little and wanted to take him on walks in a matching sweater, I was just nodding along because it sounded like a great idea 😂

You're such a inspiration. I started crochet 6 days before with years of "no I won't make this, that's to tricky" and I'm pretty impressed by myself how fast I learned and do things, but the confidence to make something to wear is so far away, but today I saw your video and your last words shooted me "I've never done a sweater before" girl you're so cool 😭 someday I will wake up, and I will make a sweater too and I will think about you 💪🧶

16:32it's actually called an invisible decrease, there are ways to do that with other types of stitches as well!

jenna! i came back to this video because it was the first video of yours that i ever watched, about two weeks ago? and i've been hooked on your videos since. what i love the most about your videos is that you show your mess-ups, and having to redo things over and over, and of course the amazing finished products which are so motivating. i am someone that was extremely artistically gifted as a child but now as an adult i NEVER do any art. but after watching your videos, i have found that artsy little girl inside of me and am just allowing myself to let loose with my creativity and have fun!!! something i haven't allowed myself to do in ages. since the start of 2022 i have already started and finished 2 projects: my first ever amigurumi project (a little whale) and just completed a beautiful crochet hat yesterday. i am allowing myself to make mistakes, do things over, play, learn new things, and my brain is buzzing with joy. i have a list of projects i want to do this year and will make a concentrated effort to weave these projects into my daily life and into my self-care routine because it helps SO MUCH. i love how you literally just go for it in your projects without fear of making a mistake, it has helped me to overcome that within my self a good deal. THANK YOU FOR ALLOWING ME TO FIND MY ARTISTIC INNER CHILD, I HAVE NOT BEEN THIS HAPPY IN A LONG TIME!

Finally someone without a perfect plan! That’s exactly what I needed, totally gonna crochet an uneven sweater 🫶

instead of doing slip stitch ribbing you can do half double crochet ribbing which is a lot faster:) also working in the round would be a lot easier

me just watching a bunch of her crochet vids to encourage myself to finish my crochet project

The sweater really came out nice. I love watching you crochet and sew. Can ‘t wait to see Benson’s.

Watching you make sweaters has inspired me to finally finish a sweater I started back in 2018. Now I'm halfway through the second sleeve!

Love this and love that you just went for it without a pattern! Very fun 70s vibe to the colors and shape. Well done, i want to try now!

Turned out fantastic! I am inspired to do this too. I made crochet socks with no pattern - they get better each one I make. You can use a smaller crochet hook to work the ends in instead of a needle.

Some advice for other people who want to try this. For ribbing you can the same thing she did working only in the back stitch but just with single crochets. You can also go along when you finish the rubbing and to make stitches to crochet in you can single crochet twice in each hole she showed.

You should try knitting w chunky needles ! I find it way quicker X

One thing you could do is to thread needles with different colors and stitch patterns into the surface of the sweater. I am a huge textile fan and even tho I don't knit sweaters I do a lot of other work with fabric so I love working a surface with different textures. You could even sew patches of cotton fabric onto the surface of the crochet.

I'm SUPER inspired by this. I think I'll try making a sweater, today!! Thanks so much for this video.

I love how chill you are. You do it for fun and love to create. It’s amazing

Supercute. The fact that you did that without a pattern is pretty impressive.

I love watching these types of videos

I just want to say you are so chill and made crochet looks super easy!!!!! Some vdos made me stressed by just watching it!!!!! Thanks for the this!

a great tip i use a lot is, when starting the stitches from the ribben, make the first row the same color as the ribben. That makes the final product look much more put together :) hope it helps

Crochet is life 🧶

I just love your attitude to crafting. You just go for it and you're so entertaining. love watching you although not sure I'm brave enough to try your patterns

for ribbing, i count my rows of ribbing, and do that many stitches across. So if you did 80 rows, then you'd make sure you have 80 double crochets across (include your chain 3 at the beginning).

Wow! I’m so impressed! I can make the heck out of blankets! But never tried a sweater

To decrease it, you could also put your hook through the first loop of two different stitches and put your double crochet in those two

I just wanted to say I've noticed when double crocheting and turning your work my edges are straighter when I just chain 1 instead of 2. And also I crochet so much I love these videos!

YESSS, this is what I was waiting for!!

if you want the ribbing to work up faster, you can single/half double crochet into the back loops instead of slip stitching:) also, about how many yards of yarn did you use?

That is just so amazing that you made an entire sweater so quickly!!

I was sitting on my floor for 20 minutes to watch this really cool and inspiring video while I was knitting a scarf for my mom. 🤍

It turned out so good. I knew you were going to frog when you did. I recognize that look in the eyes.

Yayyyy Jenna while I get ready in the morning!!

Oh shoot who needs to do lesson plans IMA GO CROCHET A SWEATER! I love the shape of your sleeves!

Bam bam, turkey and chicken. I’m stealing this horrific statement. I love it

Wham bam chicken turkey is THROWING me and I LOVE IT

I am obsessed with your channel!!🤩🧶

I really feel happier that you redid your yellow and pink bloks 😂🫣

I'm in love with your channel ! Your videos pump me up to go and actually make stuff instead of just thinking about it :) Thank you for the inspiration

I actually like growing the arm from the sweater. It gives me more of an idea of how it's gonna look and fit and I like having a big project on my lap. I like making bigger things like sweaters bc of that reason. I watched your sweater vest video too and you are very skilled! It's nice watching people get into the hobby and make things they are gonna wear. You are creating a memory with yourself.

Nice and cool job! So close for fall, Jenna!❤️🍂

wait your shirt is like my dream thrift! aghhh!

So cute!!

I find it very interesting to watch because I've recently taught myself to knit over the last 6 months (:

This is so beautiful and so YOU. Wow

As a crocheter....I would never ever cut through it with scissors!😮

YAYY another crochet video! I love these so much

You are just too cute... I love how you just do your own thing.... They are all adorable...

Wow 😍 I love it

Amazing the dog in the same position foreveeer!! Kkkkk so cutee

How do you make it smaller without it all unravelling?

it looks so cute!! love the colors

Just found your channel and I always wanted to design my own sweater without using a pattern, watching you gave me the confidence, I will start tomorrow, love your attitude and your channel.

I love watching your videos while crocheting and right now I am crocheting a balaclava because I really liked it when you made one

Love all the colors!!

front post/back post double crochet also works WONDERS for waist ribbing!

Fantastic x love the colours

Jenna this sweater is perfection, seriously!! I love it!!

great jumper awsome job for 1st time .ive done 1 but lot bigger with alldifferent colours .its toasty warm .just gota fix the neck to be smaller than been to big ...so many coments on it ...

Don’t stretch the ribbing. If you stretch it too far it won’t bounce back. It might be easier to do a row of single crochet to even up your stitches before you do the double crochet stitches. It takes practice. Your sweater is looking really long. For a small size it should be about 19 inches front & back , so about 38 inches wide. All of the measurements are on line if you need them. For a first sweater, its easier to do panels. A rectangle for front, back, and each sleeve.

Girrrlllll I WISH I had the patience to make this stuff 😂 I crochet but I get frustrated if it takes to long lol

Fell in love with this sweater, you did such an amazing job! I am currently getting in the car to go to my local craft store 💗

Sooo cute, great job!!! 👏🏼

I love the colors together

it looks so cute omg

I dont know if anyones told you before but you give me major Keltie O'Conner vibes! I love it

I am so impressed. It looks so cute on you and making one for Benson is going to be awesome. Tell us how you took off large pieces. That's a good thing to know. Anyway, congrats. You did it. Yay!

Watching while I knit a color blocked cardigan! Wish I could crochet! I can only do like a square but give me two knitting needles and you will get a sweater pretty quick lol

Love the crocheting videoes!

I love your sweater! And i love that you developed your crocheting skill

I love it so much but I would have added a ribbed mock neck collar

I learned it from a RU-vidr I watched on your channel. I'm glad I found out. I love you, you're so cute❤️😊😊

That looks so amazing. I am making one right now for valentines day, and the pattern is inspired by the one that you made. keep it going your so good at it :)

you have 2019 vibes and it’s a nice escape from 2021 to see your videos

HDC in back loops create my all time fave ribbing I think c: Loooove the colours you chose for this sweater! Can’t wait to make my own this year :D

That was so beautiful and entertaining to watch thank you ♥️

The sweater looks amazing! Beautiful colors.

It's really cute! You did very well. Love the bright colors!

YASSS crochet video, i love it and the sweater is sooo cute

Hola, te veo desde Argentina hoy descubri tu canal y me encanta, mucha inspiración!!!

You are the first person who says that they like winters just like me( well on RU-vid)

I randomly ran into your videos and I LOVE ITTT! Love your personality, really enjoyed watching it. Thanks!!!

Such a cute sweater! Your video's always make me smile. Thank you!

So talented, this is beautiful! And you have a glowing, lovely soul ✨

Love everything about this video

I RAN HERE THE SECOND TIMEE

Wonderful color combination !

I wish i could have a craft group with someone like you

i needed more of ur crochet content thank u

Very pretty..lots of dedicated work. Thanks for the demo.🥰

Love that you just make it up and never seen ribbing done like that,have you ever followed a pattern? I'm making a Habitat cardigan by "Make do Crew" they do writen instructions and a video. Most crocheting will stretch unless using full cotton, if it was me I'd have frogged back so colour didn't run out half way threw a row. I've made most of my patterns connecting straight under the arm and alway s/c first, then you decrease as you go down. First time ever I'm doing a large cuff by using a hdcflo (Half double crochet front loop only).🥴🙂🙃 Jumper looks so cosy and warm, can't wait to see Benson's sweater. Xxx

I also have a lil trick on how to decrease, i learned it from my grandma. Its kind of the same as you do it but a lil dif. Ok so you have 2 stitches you wanna merge in to 1 stitch, from the first stitch u wanna grab the first loop and from the second stitch u wanna grab the second loop

This was an experience lol! I love your energy 🖤

This is the first video I have seen by you I am 14 seconds in and I already love your personality you just got another subscriber
