I designed knit and crochet project trackers! Keep track of your cardigan pattern with this tracker.
This is the large print version for tired eyes. So much easier than using apps, scraps of paper or a plain notebook.
Three project sizes, a handy ruler and hook guide inside the cover and plenty of room for notes in each pattern.

Buy the regular size print project tracker.
I have had bad eyesight since age 18 so large print is a godsend when you can’t see apps and dark yarn, let alone going from one to the other on a crochet-a-thon during a Netflix binge.
This pattern is also a great stash buster because it uses small amounts of yarn. The jewel color is a heart puff stitch and puff stitches use much more yarn so you will need more of that than the other two colors. Amounts needed will vary based on the size collar you are making.
