Christmas inspiration! Our cover star for November is the Cowl Neck Top, both elegant and flattering it is also quick and simple to make! Create in a crisp cotton or linen for a structured look or use luxurious silk, satin or crêpe for a soft, draped silhouette. Keep your hands protected from the chilly weather with the Sheepskin Mittens which are upcycled from a faux sheepskin jacket and super stylish too! The Winter Warmer Slippers will help keep your toes toasty warm and are the perfect project to pamper yourself or make a great gift.
