Description: Sweet little cardigan, with flowery collar and cuffs, delightfully modelled by Joanna Lumley.
Note that the flowers which make up collar and cuffs are made using a "Wendy Multi-Needle" which I assume was some kind of flower loom. You can still buy flower looms but I was unable to track down an example of a vintage Multi-Needle.
