Upcycled | Rosamund Cardigan #2 | Alabama Chanin remake

Upcycled. Gold colour comes from one XL and one S men's shits.  Hence the cross stitches to piece together where there wasn't enough fabric.  But it's possible.  So I think using two 4XL men's shirts next time will be enough.  The stretchy stitch, think it's called herringbone stitch, curls back at the front.  It doesn't curl whatsoever on Rosamund #1 when I used a stretchy machine stitch to bind it.  The binding done by machine was actually very good; you don't really have any raw edges of jersey fabric anymore, since the stitches are so many.  Maybe it wouldn't curl backwards at the lapel area if something else stabilises it.  Will work on it one day, if I feel like it.
