Hi Becky, I have just purchased some of the fabric you used for your cardi, Don’t know what I’m going to make with it yet though. Thanks for sharing your make , looks great, and your son looks mega cute in his . X

Thank you 😊 it’s really lovely fabric. I have made a jumper from the same material in the black colour way and another top out of the green version. Hope you enjoy your project too x

Great autumn make. I have the Wardrobe by Me Balloon Cardigan pattern which looks similar. I made the cropped version and my fabric was not quite as stretchy as the recommendation. I used the same fabric for the cuffs and struggled to get the gathered sleeve attached to the cuff. I actually ended up having to do gathering stitches to bring the sleeve in a bit before putting the cuffs on. While I like the finished sweater I think I could narrow the sleeves a bit next time. The body fits a bit closer than this pattern though.

Thanks for your message 💖 I’ve not seen the wardrobe by me pattern but it sounds nice. I do love a gathered sleeve on a cardigan so your pattern sounds lovely too. Sweatshirt fabrics can be tricky stretch wise sometimes the one I used wasn’t too bad this time but I have had issues before with other fabrics I’ve used x 😊
