Step 8
21st row = 6th row
22nd row = 12th row
23rd row = 13th row
24th row = 14th row
25th row = 15th row
Repeat the pattern starting from the 21st row until you crochet to about waist line, then continue crocheting the 5 above rows using a larger size crochet hook to widen the garment.
Step 9
Sleeves
Attach the yarn underarm above 2nd sc ch.
1st round – ch5, dc1 into sm.ch, ch3, sk1 dc, sc5, ch3, [Vst into inc, ch3, sk1 dc, sc5, ch3] to end + sl.st.1 into 3rd ch
2nd round – ch3, dc6 into Vst, ch3, sk1 sc, sc3, ch3, [dc7 into Vst, ch3, sk1 sc, sc3, ch3] to end + sl.st.1 into 3rd ch
3rd round – ch1, sc5, ch3, inc into 2nd sc ch, ch3, [sk1 dc, sc5, ch3, inc into 2nd sc ch, ch3] to end + sl.st.1 into 2nd ch

Repeat the pattern starting from the 1st round. After you crochet about 15 rounds, continue crocheting the 5 rounds using a smaller size crochet hook until you crochet the desire length of each sleeve.

Hello Sana , sorry it is US14
Hello Sana , sorry it is US14 not US16. How many chains do I need to make
US14 size. Thank you.
Sana replied on Permalink
Hi SSeaman18,
Hi SSeaman18,
Thank you for clarifying the size for me. For the size US 14, I would work the pattern as I suggested to Luz in my very first comment (1st comment page) and adjust my gauge using different size hooks. Happy crochet!

Hi Sana, I realy like your
Hi Sana, I realy like your cardigan and I already made one but it doesn't fit. It's too big. How could I make it smaller?
Sana replied on Permalink
Hi Rosanna,
Hi Rosanna,
It depends on how big the cardigan is, your gauge and size. You may use a smaller size crochet hook or thinner yarn to adjust your gauge. You may work fewer repeats.

Hi Sana, I would like to know
Hi Sana, I would like to know what kind of yarn you have used here (material type and the size number of the yarn)
Sana replied on Permalink
Hi Kiru,
Hi Kiru,
The info about the yarn and hook is below the very first picture on this page. The yarn is a blend of cotton and acrylic. The weigh of the yarn is light 3, so it is not very thin or thick. Happy crochet!
