Description

this is the sam fabric that i made a dress out of last year. i made another dress for sale out of it this year (i’ll put up the series of dresses in the next few days). i started regretting not making a skirt out of the rest until i added the roses which totally made the sweater. the roses are made just my folding a strip of fabric in two lengthwise and then just twisting it around until it looks nice, then secure the fabric with a few stitches and stitch them to the sweater. i somewhat used the lydia pattern but i just drew it so it would fit on the scraps, it almost didn’t fit!

Material Notes

knit fabric from mood fabrics

    I love how soft, thick, and snuggly it looks. I am glad you chose roses over a skirt!
