Today’s workdesk finds me in the midst of making a black cardgan\/jacket\/sweater.\u00a0 I’m using this fabric from Fabric.com.\u00a0 You can’t really see in the photo, but it has a nice, nubbly texture (which translates into an utter mess of black bits on the floor once you cut it, lol.)<\/p>\n

I’m lining it with a beautiful black brocade. I’ll show more details when it’s closer to being done.\u00a0 This is the pattern I’m using:<\/p>\n
