Burda Style For people who sew
Description
I didn’t use any pattern for this as I just made this cardigan out of 6 rectangles of woolen knit, one for front, neck and back yoke (it’s all the same piece), other for the back, one for each sleeve and one for each cuff.
It turned out great and when I asked one of my students to be my model for the photos, she liked it so much that she ended up buying it!
The belt is made of velvet and taffeta.
