Fabric & Fit
Fabrics to shop: Sew Milo in your favorite knit fabric, like ponte, double knit, merino jersey, French terry, rib knits, and sweater knits.
Notions: For the 1” buttons, you can go vintage, match them to your fabric, or add a pop of contrast.
Fabrics to avoid: While nearly any knit will work, avoid very lightweight knits as the buttons could pull on the fabric.
Fit: This cardigan has enough ease to be comfortable when worn over a blouse or top, and the two versions let you customize the length.
