retro sweater redo
Fall is fast approaching and soon we'll have crisp weather. So, I decided to get started on my warm wardrobe. I found this sweater for $1 at the thrift store and I loved the throwback preppy 80's look of it. But it was three sizes too big, sloppy, and frumpy. I got to work on it to make it my own.....

that turned out great..
I just love looking at all you recreations. You are so creative!!!
Paula made the bread lol she could not even get time to take a pic before they all ate it up lol
How did you re stitch the sleeves back on so it does not un ravel, can you show a pic on the inside :)
I hand sewn the stitches on the inside with the ends back to back so that when you wear it you can't see them. I will try to get a pic as soon as I can.
EeeeeK here we go
