This is the original Milly Cardigan for $367.

What you'll need:

-Cardigan
-2 yards Matching Trim - I used black satin trim (make sure you get the washable kind bc the decorative spooled ribbon will fall apart upon washing)
-Matching thread
-2 yards Chain Trim
-Invisible nylon thread

The first thing to do is pin the matching trim along the buttons, collar, and button holes. I'm adding trim for visual interest and to give the heavy chain a more stable backing for attachment. Sew in place with matching thread and you'll get something that looks like this:

Then using the matching trim as a guide, hand sew every other chain link (I secured with three loops each) with the invisible thread. This is an easy step but it is a little time consuming. Once you get to the end, snip off excess chain with wire cutters.

And voila! For $17, you get the general look of a $367 one.
