Substituting yarn
Yarn substitution is an indispensable skill for crocheters, empowering you to achieve desired results in case the original yarn listed in a pattern is unavailable.
The Granny Pop Cardigan is crocheted using Mary Maxim Best Value, a 100% acrylic worsted weight (4) yarn in colour Cottonwood, as well as Mary Maxim Prism, a stunning gradient yarn in a DK weight (3) and 100% acrylic composition, specifically in colour Lakeside.
If you wish to substitute the yarn for this pattern, I have provided a list of suitable alternatives below. However, please keep in mind that it is important to do a gauge swatch with your chosen yarn and adjust your hook size accordingly to achieve the pattern’s specified gauge for correct sizing. This will ensure that the final garment turns out as intended.
Yarn Substitutes
Mellowspun (CDN) is Made of soft, 100% premium acrylic with a special twist that we are very proud of! Choose from 33 luscious shades of dk-weight yarn that blend and complement each other.
Lion Brand Mandela will also work great as an affordable gradient alternative. King Cole Riot DK is an excellent wool/acrylic substitute coming in a few dark variegated woodsy colours.

Perfect for a day trip to the beach or a summer picnic. It’s 60% bamboo and 40% cotton, and each is 3.5 oz. The ball contains 273 yds.

Hooded Crochet Cardigan Construction
The Granny Pop Hoodie pattern is worked from the top down in rows until you reach your desired size. Once you’ve achieved the desired size, you’ll begin separating the sleeves and body as per our detailed instructions. Continuing with the body, you’ll work in rows, creating a beautiful, polished finish with a band.
You’ll then join back onto the foundation row to create a hood worked in rows. Finish the fronts and hood by working a row of edging for a button-up collar. Then, join back onto the sleeves and work them in the round. We’ll show you how to finish off the sleeves with a beautiful cuff, providing you with a seamless and professional look.

Size Chart & Yarn Requirments
Oversized fit with 5-7 inches of Positive Ease. Choose the size based on the preferred Finished Bust Measurement.
Additionally, when working with the Prism yarn, I found that slightly more yardage was used compared to the Best Value yarn. This difference could be attributed to the minor variation in yarn weight or tension while crocheting.
It’s always better to have a little extra yarn on hand than to run out halfway through your project. Happy crocheting!

Centre the pockets on the front panels, leaving approximately 2 rows of clusters below the pocket. Use a yarn needle and yarn tail to sew the pockets to the cardigan.
Finishing
For a professional finish and to prevent the ribbing from curling, I recommend lightly steaming the cardigan and ribbing. Gently use a steamer to release any wrinkles and flatten the ribbing. Be cautious not to hold the steamer too close to the garment to avoid any damage.
Washing Instructions
Handwashing or gentle machine washing:
To clean your cardigan, handwashing is highly recommended. Fill a basin or sink with lukewarm water and add a mild detergent suitable for delicate fabrics. Gently immerse the garment and agitate it softly to cleanse. Avoid excessive squeezing or wringing to prevent stretching or misshaping. Rinse thoroughly with clean water. Alternatively, if you prefer to use a washing machine, place the garment inside a garment bag or pillowcase to protect it. Use a gentle cycle with cool water and mild detergent. Avoid harsh spin cycles or high temperatures that can damage the fibres. Refer to the yarn label if substituting yarn.
Drying:
After washing, gently remove excess water without wringing the garment. Lay it flat on a clean, absorbent towel, arranging it into shape. Roll up the towel and gently press to remove more moisture. Then, let the garment air dry, avoiding direct sunlight or heat sources that could cause fading or shrinking.
