Good question. I think what happened here is I did not double check Ottobre's measurements and blindly cut out the 36 (thinking Burda), even though I am a 38 in Ottobre's sizing. With all the stretch in these knits, the 36 works well. In fact, one cardi that's out of a more stretchy knit is almost too oversized and 'slouchy' feeling. Good Luck!!! :) Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09872753120191298033[email protected]tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3748043061128192357.post-45719554053641797292019-03-25T16:27:04.265-04:002019-03-25T16:27:04.265-04:00Oh boy do I love this cardigan! Some things just don't jump out at me in Ottobre like they should but this one does now! What a perfect knit to use for this pattern. I will definitely have to keep this pattern in mind now as I look for a knit to use. Since I normally make the size 38 for myself, do you recommend a 36 instead since the fit looks perfect for you?Sewing by Shirleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14073228812439584262[email protected]tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3748043061128192357.post-35209041345489947572019-03-16T10:17:18.612-04:002019-03-16T10:17:18.612-04:00This style would look very good on you!

Plus the turtleneck - a really classic look.Sarah Lizhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17566072246120028926[email protected]tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3748043061128192357.post-6238547050048927102019-03-13T00:21:19.682-04:002019-03-13T00:21:19.682-04:00That's so beautiful Lisa! and what an amazingly fast turn around!! clearly a perfect match of fabric and pattern, and you look absolutely lovely... though of course you look lovely in everything :)Carolynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03156106727490224625[email protected]tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3748043061128192357.post-73026461107941294262019-03-12T16:19:56.934-04:002019-03-12T16:19:56.934-04:00Thank you so much Diane!! :)Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09872753120191298033[email protected]tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3748043061128192357.post-76050414472269312782019-03-12T15:41:32.633-04:002019-03-12T15:41:32.633-04:00Really nice Lisa!
