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.
Fabric Portfolio
Below are samples from the hundreds of yards of woven, knit, machine knit, or
