Finding mens crochet sweaters is not as easy as finding crochet cardigans for women or children. So we have put together 25 crochet mens cardign patterns.

Using the basic stitches to construst a mens cardigan, these crochet patterns are perfect for beginner crocheters too. If you are new to crocheting, then you might want to have some basic knowledge on how to crochet fro beginners.

Are cardigans good beginner projects?

Yes and No!

Any project can be easy and complex depending on the pattern. If you are a beginner and are trying to make a crochet mens cardigan or crochet mens sweater, then you want to look at the easy construction as well as stitches.

Here are a few tips for the beginners trying to crochet mens cardigan for their first time:

  • Go for a pattern that uses basic crochet stitches like single crochet, half double crochet, and double crochet stitches. Be sure to read through the pattern, and see if there is a recommended skill level listed near the top. Get an idea of what stitches you will use, what type of seaming will be involved, and whether you need to know any special techniques.
  • Then you want to look for patterns made of basic rectangles or other large simple shapes. You may want to avoid designs that utilize complex shaping techniques and fancy colorwork at least for your first project. Likewise, avoid patterns that call for very lightweight or otherwise difficult yarns. 
  • consider a loose or oversized sweater design as an excellent starting project. These silhouettes tend to be more forgiving than fitted sweaters. This way, even if your gauge is a little off, there’s still a good chance that your sweater will fit.

Supplies For Crochet Mens Cardigan

Yarn

Your sweater pattern will give you instructions for the correct yarn weight, and often recommend a specific yarn. For your convenience, you can follow this link to find some yarns.

You can substitute yarns, but make sure to choose one that is a similar weight and fiber content. This will help you achieve the correct gauge, and ensure that your sweater has a similar drape to the one in the pattern photos.

Remember, whether you use the recommended yarn or not, it’s crucial to make a gauge swatch to make sure you’re on the right track.

How much yarn will i need?

Most crochet mens cardigan or sweater patterns require 3-9 skeins of yarn. but it all depends on the type of sweater and which size you’re making.

Waist-length sweaters need between 3-6 skeins, and longer cardigans usually require more. Don’t worry; your pattern will let you know how much is necessary.
