I also had difficulty with the cardi in that pattern, but the shell is a favorite of mine.

The brown looks better from the front than the back.marysewshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04482564881192516660noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8734794303611926264.post-24949326770508965802014-12-14T12:50:21.894-08:002014-12-14T12:50:21.894-08:00I am also a big fan of the ivory one.

The Abby cardi is one of my favourites and a staple in my wardrobe.BeaJayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14071033898844018967noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8734794303611926264.post-86628452532909216772014-12-14T11:53:55.904-08:002014-12-14T11:53:55.904-08:00Take a look at Marcy Tilton's website.

It really looks delightful. It might work for your coffee jacket too though it would make the back longer.<br />Let us know your solution(s)!<br />Vancouver BarbaraAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8734794303611926264.post-36468866438122383802014-12-13T20:44:24.124-08:002014-12-13T20:44:24.124-08:00Agree, the ivory twin set is a winner - and much m...Agree, the ivory twin set is a winner - and much more classic than the coffee set. I think separating these pieces would be a good idea - each piece is lovely. The cardigan may work better over a summer dress where the finishing line is not so important. The top may get a new partner one day- and you may have something already around. Agree that the lace could come off and something softer in its place would look great.Sarah Lizhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17566072246120028926noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8734794303611926264.post-55026777806175966292014-12-13T16:39:03.116-08:002014-12-13T16:39:03.116-08:00Thanks for your suggestions.

I have always wanted to try tea dying so I will have a go at that .After all I have nothing to lose and I do really like the slubby brown knit.

Or no edging at all.<br />Vancouver BarbaraAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
