Fabric Details: Cozy Sweater Knit
Width: 58/60″ GSM: 280.00
Material: 98% Polyester, 2% Spandex
Cozy Sweater Knit must be code for “teddy bear” fabric, because that’s kind of what it was. It’s super textured and has a very heavy weight to it, without being super stiff. It also has an incredible horizontal stretch…but zero vertical. The applications for this fabric base are plentiful…but I decided to take an easy way out and make myself an All Buttoned Up cardigan. I’m currently really into wearing long duster length cardis so I can be warm inside and outside, while the temperatures still aren’t fully jacket worthy. I have three All Buttoned Ups that I’ve been rotating between this fall and I’m not mad about it.

I also decided that I needed a new underlayer for my little photoshoot…so I whipped up a Favorite Tee and added this “In My Sewing Era” design to it (using some Siser DTV). If you keep your eyes peeled, I am pretty sure this design is going to pop up on my blog as a freebie soon. In full color and just a basic cut file, so ya’ll can use it however you’d like. I just haven’t gotten that far yet.
What do you think about the choice I made for this fabric? Would you have done something different?
