Eximia sweater by Sofilantjes

Today I am showing you three more eximia sweaters with the beautiful fabric that I received from Framalo. I picked out the purple sparrows by Chat Chocolat, which is a very soft and beautiful sweat fabric that is nice and warm, so perfect for winter.

For the girls I sewed two short eximia sweaters, which are perfect over dresses as you can see. It is just like a bolero but then a bit longer and warmer. I love the look of the sweater on top of a dress. It is just perfect to still wear the summer dresses but then with a nice warm sweater. For the cuffs and the neckband I used striped ribbing.

For myself I sewed the medium length, just like the first version of the eximia sweater I sewed for our eldest. I love this length it looks different from a regular sweater but it wears so comfortable! And it has pockets, just perfect. I combined it with black ribbing that I also received from Framalo. In the first picture I wore the sweater over a skirt but also on top of pants it looks great, such a versatile pattern.

Framalo has a great selection of fabrics, as well as wool for knitting. Besides the supplies for sewing and knitting you can also have a ladies night, a homeparty or follow a workshop at Framalo. It is a Belgian webshop and the shipping is only 1 euro to the Netherlands and Belgium so definitely worth checking out! Thank you Framalo!

If you have not bought the eximia sweater yet, you can still get it with a 25% discount until the 24th of December.
