I thrifted a handknit mohair cardigan that was too beautiful to cut! I had big plans to upcycle it, but then couldn’t bring myself to cut up this beauty, so instead I did some small alterations to it, and then made a lovely silk and lace camisole to go with it. As always, I’ll take you through the ups and downs and give you a lot of tips, tricks and techniques along the way!
