Friday Sews, Marlo Sweater Crop Version
Hello everyone, today I am sharing my cropped Marlo sweater that I have just finished this morning. This is a really good pattern for a cardigan and I have made the longer version before. I am still loving the wildlife theme and I think it goes well with this cropped sweater, I opted for two buttons instead of three as they are very big. Thank you for watching, please leave a comment as I always love to read them. Happy sewing.
Thank you to Jen at Jen's Sewing Room for creating #fridaysews I love to follow her vlog.

Hi Janice, thank you. Yes I know it would drive mist people crazy that they didn't match but it doesn't bother me as they match size wise and bothe have the four holes. Have a super weekend.
I’ve just made the Marlo cropped sweater as well. I made it in a wool double jersey and it’s come out very cosy. Thanks for your tips. I’m going to try the longer sleeve version now.

Hi, have fun with it and thank you for commenting. ☺️
Great tips about saving fabric and love your Burda top. I am a fan of Burda but find their instructions are scarce. Have now subscribed to your channel after watching your sewalongs on the Minerva channel as I have really enjoyed them. Pretty cardigan and I think two buttons are enough.

Hi Marlene, yes Burda instructions are a bit limited in the magazines. I'm glad you like the cardigan I wore it earlier. ☺️
Both your cardigans look great. I have bought the pattern and am planning to make the cropped one. A good thing about this pattern is that you can use woven for the main pieces. This is a great video Diane so good you can get it out of a meter. That is how i usually fold my fabric , just enough to get the pieces on. J never look at the cutting out guide. J will be making a size 4 so great 😊

Hi Susan, thank you. Yes I think we often think everyone can see these little joins but they are not really noticeable, so worth making the most of small amounts of fabric. Glad you enjoyed it. have a great evening.🙂
Hi Dianne, I love both your Marlow cardigans. The woodland print cropped cardigan fits great and only needs 2 buttons.❤️

Hi Julie thank you.
The cardigan looks great. Thanks for the tips. I think the two buttons look better as I did three on mine and prefer yours.

@@diannessewingroom7 hi Dianne just a plain turquoise ponte roma I got from Minerva, I prefer the longer version on me so made a light grey longer in ponte which I am really pleased with. I watch you on Minerva videos you are great.
Really nice sweater! Super that you managed to do it with just 1m of fabric!

Both of your sweaters are lovely. I really like that woodland print!!! Thank you for the hacks about eeking out the pattern with less fabric. I do this as well. Really necessary to know if you are making things from fabrics you already have. Another great video. thanks

Hi Gayle, glad you like it. Yes it's great to know you can do it with less as you may have a piece to use up. ☺️
Really like the look of this one. I’m still working up the courage to try the Bertha though 🙈
