Cardigans For Every Body: because every body is worthy isn't telling you what to do with your body; enough people are telling you that already.

Instead, this book is a guide and love letter from me to empower you to look at your body and make garments that fit your body exactly how it is now and not just a mythical futuristic body you may never achieve.

That's my hope for Cardigans For Every Body: because every body is worthy. What do you hope to achieve?
