Some Knits for Myself

I just got some jersey knits in the mail yesterday from fabric.com. I love that website…they had the jersey knits on sale last week, so I picked up a bunch at around $3/yard. What a great deal, since Joann has them for around $10/yard (I think).

And when I bought them, I certainly did have a project in mind! I got this Aurelia Cardigan sewing pattern last week from Pink Chalk Fabrics. I like the ruffle detail a lot, and I thought it would be great to pair the jersey knit with some great cotton woven prints from my stash. Isn’t it cute??

I’m hoping I can finish one up before Thanksgiving…which knit color do you think I should try first?

    Oh I love some good knit fabrics! And now I should probably confess that I spent a large part of a 3 hours meeting at work today, coveting the navy polkadot knit dress that a colleague was wearing, and wondering if I could a) find that fabric anywhere and b) work out how to make it…
