MYSTYLE: McCalls 6084 - Cardigain in Forest Green Ponte Knit

Working on adding some simple but effective pieces to my wardrobe.  This cardigan was very easy to make, about an hour and half from cut to hem.  

I needed something to wear to my Husband's co-worker birthday dinner party which was held at a restaurant.  I always freeze at restaurants, so I new I wanted to wear sleeves, but didn't want to have to put on a jacket or something heavy.  It was a beautiful night and the weather was cool but not cold outside.  

I have had this pattern in my stash for awhile, and I have always wanted to make it and never got around to it.  I got off from work on Friday, and whipped this baby up about an hour before we were due to leave the house.  Gave me plenty time to shower and  fix my face (picutres don't show it though, tee-hee).

              

Pattern Deets:

1.   McCalls 6084 

2.   I used a Ponte Roma Knit (my favorite choice of knit fabrics)

3.   I hemmed the bottom and sleeves using my coverstitch machine

4.   I cut about 3 inches off of bottom, as the pattern is long and I wanted more of a top than cardigan look 

5.   The pattern doesn't call for it but I made a sash/tie for a different look (didn't use the tie on this particular night) 

Happy Sewing!
