Back in September, I made a simple pull-on wool knit skirt with the intention of sewing a matching pullover top to go with it. The pullover top was a fail in fit and even though the skirt is comfortable it didn't see much wear this winter. This is my attempt to finally complete a set.
There was about 1.9 metres remaining of the merino wool fabric, not enough for a pullover top but just enough for another cardigan. Out-of-print (OOP) Kwik Sew 4192 has been a successful project in the past so I figure it could work here as well.
The fit worked out perfectly. And I'm thrilled to finally have a matching set.
