Aveiro Cardigan by Itch to Stitch

We are moving towards fall and every now and then we need some fall clothing. What I always wear during fall season are cardigans. It is great to put one over a t-shirt or take it with you when it will get colder at night. I have many different cardigans in different colours, because they need to match your clothing, right?! The Aveiro Cardigan* by Itch to Stitch is therefore a must have in your wardrobe!

The Aveiro Cardigan has several options, a bolero, a short cardigan, a regular cardigan and a long cardigan and you can opt for short or long sleeves. So basically all types of cardigans are covered in this awesome pattern. And of course as I am used to with Itch to Stitch patterns, the fit is spot on!

I sewed the regular cardigan with long sleeves and I used snaps as closure for the cardigan as suggested in the pattern. Of course you can also use buttons, but then you have to sew buttonholes, not my favourite activity. Although 130 cm is advised for the cardigan I managed to squeeze the cardigan out of 1 meter of fabric. A win as I was able to cut this cardigan from a coupon out this lovely sweat knit. It is nice and warm, so perfect for fall and winter (if we get a mild winter).

Fabric: sweat knit coupon, which I bought at Caresstoffen
