Catherine from CathGrace is over at Sew Cool for the Tween Scene today, discussing how she collaborates with her teen-age daughter to design and sew clothes she’ll love. She includes a tutorial showing how she made a jersey knit cardigan for her daughter, starting with inspiration (a cardigan from Anthropologie). She shows how she adapted a standard raglan sleeve pattern to recreate the look, though in tween proportions.

Cocoon Cardigan – Free Sewing Pattern
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.
