Athearn_Nancy1.jpg - Nancy Athearn This sweater-jacket was made from one man's pullover sweater that was color blocked.  The bottom 6-8 inches was the dark variegated blue, the middle was medium variegated blue, and top was the lightest. All ribbed bands were navy blue.  The center 6-8 inches had a cable pattern, which is visible on a few of the blocks.  I took all the ribbing and the sleeves off, and cut open one side of the sweater body and the sleeves.  I then fused lightweight tricot interfacing to all pieces to help prevent the knit from running.
