Purple cardigan
« on: March 15, 2020, 07:05:58 AM »
This cardigan has been sitting on my cutting table for most of the summer.  The fabric is a butter soft sweater knit (well marinated - can't remember the source) and an absolute dog to sew.  But, it makes a sweet waterfall front cardigan.  The pattern is the SBCC Limoncello Cardigan (SB314).  Adjustments: omit the second layer on the front waterfall section (just hem the edges) as I find its just too heavy, and lengthen the sleeves.   I also finished a pair of black pants, but its too hard to photograph anything black.

That's lovely, I have been wondering about trying SBCC patterns, do you find them well designed?
