Embroidering on Knits

I took a thrifted cashmere cardigan that has been my trusty sidekick for years and gave it new life with some wool embroidery this weekend. ✨
I wasn’t reaching for it anymore. It just felt tired.
But I knew instantly when I saw @ku.ni.ber.ta ‘s new book, Embroidery on Knits, that my old cardigan was destined for a second (third?) lease on life.
A quick trip to my local @snugglymonkey for some wool thread, and I had myself the perfect weekend project - and covered up a few moth holes in the process.
This kind of wardrobe renewal is central to my online style course, The Mindful Wardrobe Project, where the goal is to make peace with your clothing and the process of getting dresses each morning. Check out my website for more info!
I’m also wearing my go-to base layers, a simple #limestoneleggings and top … which you can learn how to make in our online course, Learn to Sew with Knits.

It’s stunning, and what a lovely touch to wash away the tracing paper in a running stream ❤
