Using the leftover fabric from the joggers, I managed to cut out two cardigans.
The pattern is The Kinder Cardigan from Wendy Ward's Book "A Beginner’s Guide To Sewing With Knitted Fabrics"
I interfaced the lower section of the front bands and added buttons and buttonholes. I also made the cuffs a little smaller and ran a slight gathering stitch round the bottom of the sleeves to help ease them onto the cuffs.
With the buttons and the tighter cuffs I hope these versions will be a little cosier to wear.
We can add the brown cardigan into the Paisley SWAP.
1 jacket, 1 fleece, 1 cardigan, 1 shirt, 8 knit tops, 1 pair jeans, 1 pair joggers, 1 skirt.The animal print pieces could be worn with the plain items, but not with the paisley (IMO).
