This old red sweater coat was my inspiration for the rolled front bands. I haven't discarded it since I think I'll recut it eventually to raise the armscye and narrow the body. The drawing shows you more clearly how this might look, while the striped cardigan has a wider rolled band applied to the left front side. I ran out of time before my printing deadline and the holidays, so I just cut one band like I had suggested in the newsletter and machine basted it in place on a cardigan I had already made to be certain my instructions for the redesign would be clear and easy to accomplish. You can see how nicely it rolls around the left side of the neckline. Using garments that are already made up is a great way to design new details without having to make an entire "muslin."
