As the temperature dips and the crisp air sets in, there’s nothing quite like snuggling up in a cozy cardigan. Enter the Cocoon Cardigan, a free sewing pattern and tutorial that promises to be the perfect solution for those chilly days. In this review, we’ll delve into the details of this delightful DIY project, exploring its ease of use, versatility, and overall comfort.
Pattern and Fabric Selection: The Cocoon Cardigan pattern, available for free on the Sew in Love website, offers a simple yet stylish design perfect for lounging at home or running errands in style. What sets this pattern apart is its versatility; it can be made with a variety of fabrics, making it suitable for different seasons and occasions. For my project, I opted for a bamboo knit jersey from Wazoodle, which provided the ideal combination of lightness, softness, and drape.

My favorite dress as a child was a red dress with a full skirt and sewn in netting to make it very full. It had rhinestone buttons on the front and glitter on the front. I felt so special when I wore it and just loved to spin and spin. I still love shiny and glittery, fifty years later! Cool book. Would love to win and try out some of the patterns for my seven(!) grandkids.

My favorite childhood outfit was the first communion dress my mom made for me. White with swiss dots, short puffy sleeves and really really short. It was the 70’s!
I still have it today!

My favorite outfit as a little girl was a purple polka dotted pant and shirt set, it looked and felt like pajamas, but way cooler! (it was the 80’s) the best part were the stirrups on the legs of the pants that helped keep then tucked in to my sneakers….Miss that outfit, maybe I will make myself another one!
