Hi guys! I made my first Driftless Cardigan (this pattern is from Grainline Studio). I decided to lengthen it since I didn't have any maxi sweaters in my closet. I added 7" to the front and back pieces. I made version B, with the uneven, split hem. This will be perfect for wearing with leggings, though I think also looks good over everything else.
After I'd cut out the pieces, I realized that the pockets were going to be 7" lower, too, and I regretted my hasty decision. But I sewed it up anyway and I think it turned out just fine.
I used a medium weight, cotton-poly sweater knit from fabric.com, which is now out of stock. I used my serger to sew the whole thing, and slipstitched the neck band in place, as instructed.
Have you made a Driftless cardigan?
