I'm catching up on some blog posts featuring things I made ages ago, so unfortunately I'm a little short on details. But that's okay because my blog posts are usually longer than they need to be anyway!
This is the Jenna Cardigan by Muse Patterns. I made it from a fluffy white fabric with dark grey polka dots on it which I think I bought from FabricLand in Poole in the UK.
White really is not my colour - I just don't wear it at all. But for some reason this fabric took my fancy and I really wanted to make a cardigan from it. End result, I'm not very comfortable wearing it due to the colour, but I keep wearing it occasionally and I'm starting to feel better about it.
The pattern was easy and fun to make. I did make an adjustment though as I wanted a looser fit around the waist than the original shape which is quite fitted. This seemed to work well, but it wasn't going to look great buttoned up, so that's why I opted for just one button at the top!
Here's a view of the back . . .
It seems as though I forgot to take my sunglasses off for the whole of this photoshoot. Oh well!
