The Sewing Box
This post was intended as a gift for Mage Fish day, but for various reasons it couldn't be that day in the end, and I thought that since today is Friday, the "January slope," you might be eager to tackle it. It's a DIY (or a Why don't you as I call them).

Almost a year ago, Anabel started a project to create a printed magazine about Arts & Crafts. She asked some of us to help her with simple DIY examples, and, of course, I came up with the idea of making a low-cost military-style jacket.
Anabel's project has finally seen the light after a lot of hard work. You can find her magazine El Costurero at these locations, and I can now show you the cardigan in question, which is what you see in the following photos on Esther's body.

I seem to recall that it costs less than €30 to make in total, including buying the cardigan at the Zara nearest to your home. If you already have a cardigan, you save more than half.

If you like it, below you have the instructions on how to make it. Mónica (who, by the way, explains the DIY she proposed here) drew them, and they turned out very nice, but it's possible that for dummies like me, some additional explanation might be needed. If so, let me know, and I'll edit it, adding details. Now, if you'll excuse me, I have to run.
