Rumpled Ribbon Cardigan

I have this black sweater that was so blah and needed a little extra something to make it stand out. I was looking through my J Crew catalog like I do from time to time every night and saw the Rumpled Ribbon Cardigan. It didn’t look like it would be too hard to reproduce. Just a bit of ribbon rumpled along the side of the sweater and around the neck.

J Crew's Rumpled Ribbon Cardigan

My version!

This was super easy to make, just took some ribbon, fray checked the edges and pinned it rumpled up to the sweater and sewed on. I didn’t have enough ribbon to go all around to the other side but figured one side was good enough.

Try it on one of your sweaters!

Your cardi looks fantastic. JCrew and Anthropologie catalogs are always full of crafty inspiration for me.
