Sweaters by Design Gallery & Portfolio
Sweaters by Design does much more than sweaters these days, including hats, furnishings, yardage, upholstery, and invites you to browse the Fabric Portfolio and Model Portfolio pages for inspiration and enjoyment. If you would like to make one of your creations using any of the designs from the Design Compendium CDs to be displayed here, just drop an e-mail with a picture and description of your article to us.
