Cute Capped Sleeve Cardigan

This is a cute little cardigan, I designed it to have capped leaves created out of a mock crochet stitch I developed.

And Beautifully modled by the Lovely Gemma!

These are some of the samples which inspired this cardigan 

Vintage Meadow Cardigan

Beautiful Vintage Cardigan I created to express a nostalgic ideal of  lazy days in a meadow. The design was inspired by my collages of dandelion clocks and poppy heads, and I wanted the whole design to have a vintage feel to it.

Retro Striped Cardigan with the Frills

 One of my other cardigans is the Retro striped cardigan with textured frills, The frill was actually developed from a little sample the fell off and then i figured it could be reattached in a frill design to give the samples and this cardigan a girly retro feel.

 

These are some of the original samples which inspired this cardigan.
