Modification Monday: Peabody Cardi




Original Pattern: Peabody and Milena

Knitter Extraordinaire: Jolanta (Ravelry ID)

Mods: Combined design elements of both patterns to create a totally new look. Her project page can be found here.

What Makes This Awesome:  I love a pattern mash up! Jolanta's sweater is a beautiful example of a mash up done just right. I particularly like how balanced between the two orignal patterns this cardigan is- the sleeves, length, and stitch are from Peabody, and the cardigan, neckline, and tailored shaping are from Milena. The result is gorgeous- I wish I had knit this myself!
