  1. Paula Crebbs –

    I loved this pattern. I’ve never made anything like this and working with knits can be intimidating but it was a breeze. The pattern takes you step by step with easy to understand illustrations. I will be making a lot more!

  2. Amber Stefanick –

    I really enjoyed sewing up this pattern. The instructions were clear and I like that it has the option for buttons or other fasteners if desired. With the option for different lengths, this pattern is a versatile wardrobe staple.

  3. Emily Schimelfenyg –

    Came together easily, and has a gorgeous result. I love the duster length for me and my mini

  4. Emily Frank Schimelfenyg –

    Great pattern for fall. I love the side vent detail. So comfy.

  5. Candice Robb –

    This pattern is an easy sew and I just love how good it looks. My daughter loves her new cardigan!

  6. Ummul Masakin –

    pretty much simple. made this with light fabric to suit our weather

  7. Chantal van Drunen – Ezendam –

    I had made a Keeley cardi for myself and then decided my 2 girls needed one as well. So we could twin. They love it. I made them the midi version and they just love twirling it around! Sewing this cardi is extremely simple. In a couple of hours I had both cardigans finished.

  8. Samantha Burton –

    I like the end result of this cardigan. Nice design, easy to put together. Buttonholes on my machine were a bit tricky, but I was able to get them squared away. I used fluffy/heavy sweater knit and there were times that it seemed impossible to be able to sew, but I managed. Great pattern!

  9. Brandi Labonte –

    I love quick, simple sews that produce classic wardrobe staples, and Keeley definitely fits the bill! The length and pocket options, as well as the ability to choose various closures – or none at all! – mean that you can make several unique styles from this pattern (always a win in my book).

  10. Juliana Garibaldi-Appelhof –

    I liked Keeley! It was easy to sew.

  11. Siska Ferdina Taslim –

    Lovely cardigan!! The duster length is so on trend. My daughter loves hers and refuses to take it off!

  12. Dési Rée –

    Very quick and easy sew. Fits like glove!

  13. Lisa Corriveau –

    The Keeley Cardigan is a quick sew requiring only easy construction skills. The result is a close fitting (though not fitted at the waist) cardigan that makes a great extra layer for cooler weather.

  14. Katarina Vaclavikova –

    This is such a great and super easy pattern. I managed to sew one for my princess and one for me while she was asleep. And the outcome is so amazing. I highly recommend this pattern.

  19. Zaji Kali Boyer –

    I made the ladies version of this, as well. Both are very straightforward to sew. I didn’t make any adjustments to this pattern for my daughter but I would probably shorten the sleeves a hair and so the shorter length!

  20. Shankari Paradee –

    Loved this pattern! Very straight forward, easy to follow and great for beginners. Made in under an hour!

  21. Nikki Loans –

    Absolutely loved this sew. It was exactly what my daughter wanted in a Duster cardigan, & it fits perfectly for her size.

    I loved sewing up this pattern! It was a very quick, easy sew that I was able to cut and sew in my baby’s naptime. The fit was fantastic and my ten year old absolutely loves it. I love that you can pick two different lengths and opt out of buttons and/or pockets (like I did) if you want to sew something super fast but very satisfying.
