I really did finish that ‘antique lace’ cardigan –
I finally got to wear it a few weeks back when I went out for dinner. It is really
nice and I felt very feminine, comfortable, elegant and sophisticated all at
the same time! It’s very lightweight and is really the perfect, warm weather
cover-up – just what I was aiming for. When I did the sleeves, I was, at first
going to do a short or elbow-length. After thinking about it, I decided that by
making a 3/4 sleeve, I could still wear this
year round, especially for a holiday occasion and I’m glad I did.
I got my girlfriend to take some photos yesterday at our
local Hillcrest Park, overlooking Lake Superior and the Sleeping Giant
(although I’ve probably cropped out evidence in these photos, but we also photo-ed
two of the garments for the upcoming Fall 2012 POM – I’ll show those off later
in the week and make sure to leave in some of
our local landscape!
