McCall's 6996 - Style Maker Fabrics' Scuba Knit

McCall's 6996 cardigan from Style Maker Fabrics' scuba knit

One more quick project, a cardigan from a great scuba knit



This is McCall's 6996, which I have made before in the velvet and this time made View A, minus the gathers  in the center back neckline

The fabric is Style Maker Fabric's Scuba Knit and I think it will go well from the last of winter and into spring.  I am saying that hoping spring is coming!

Here you can see where I didn't add the gathers.  I just like how the band turns down.

This scuba knit has some great olive green, which will go with a couple of tops in my closet, too.  I also think a chambray shirt will look nice with this, too.  This pattern goes together quickly but does take just short of 2 yards of fabric.  I didn't do a good job on the layout and had to add a 10" piece in the middle of the band.  The fabric has enough design that this doesn't show too much.

    This looks really nice. Did you sew it on your serger?

    I just made this pattern up for the first time and I was wondering how I could get rid of the gathers. I don't mind them but I also don't need them. I'm totally doing this next time. I love how the fabric on yours works as a neutral but is also interesting. The length is perfect, too.

    That fabric is gorgeous!! I love anything with a marble design to it. Love that you let the fabric be the star by choosing a simple silhouette
