My sewing lovelies, it's Cass Week! The Cass T-shirt pattern and Book of Hacks is on sale through Dec. 4.

I'm living that cardigan life since the weather's changed in my part of the world. This might be my fave me-made cardigan, the Samara, from @victorypatterns 🏆 Highly recommend.⁠

Should you be interested, I checked and Victory is running a holiday sale RN. I've sewn a number of Victory Patterns and haven't found a dud yet. Hashtag treat yoself. (I'm not on the take from Victory - just a fan.)⁠
