Burda Style For people who sew
Description
What to wear on those in-between days when Spring is nearing but a chill is still in the air? A long cardigan over a fun summer dress! We found this remnant of Roberto Cavalli jersey at Mood fabrics, which lends a bit of a wild side to this versatile cardi.
Make it in light wool for a cozy layering piece, make it in a heavier wool to be worn as a coat, or a solid colored jersey for a go-to wardrobe staple.
Shot at 3rd Ward, a Brooklyn-based innovation incubator. Anyone can come to 3rd Ward to work, play, learn, grow and, ultimately, transform. Visit www.3rdward.com to learn more.

I am looking forward to receiving my mag to obtain this pattern as I too will be making it up in many different fabrics. Keep up the good work as your site is a great addition to the magazines.

This would look nice with slightly shorter, wide kimono sleeves as well.

It looks fabulous in that print! Is the dress based on the Amanda blouse?
