No, we're not talking granny sweaters... we're thinking of the modern spin to an old look, with over-sized and bold patterns. This very simple heart pattern would be easy to duplicate and is perfect for the cooler weather.
Madeline of Uber Chic for Cheap really loved the giant cross-stitch look on a trendy, albeit pricey, sweater. The basic idea was so simple, however, that she decided to take matters into her own hands and pulled out her needle and thread and created her own similar look for much, much less money.
