Caron Chunky Cakes is the hottest new yarn in the Cake family to hit Michaels. This super cute, easy-to-make Blanket Cardigan has just been released and has jumped right near the top of my personal to-do list! It looks hot and cozy. Perfect for a chilly winter day.
This simple pattern uses the concept of a rectangle made from half double crochet into the horizontal bar. It really creates the next texture. Here is a simple diagram to demonstrate:
After it's done, it's a simple fold to create the armholes and you are ready to go. It's a great beginner project to get started with crocheted clothing.
Mikey is undecided at this time on whether or not to film a tutorial. Leave him a yay or a nay in the comments below if you'd like him to film this one.

I am excited to try this pattern. I have only made one other cardigan in all my years of crocheting, and it was not very good. So Yes! I would love to see a Mikey Tutorial!
