Days 23 + 24: Sweater deconstruction
I’ve always been especially fond of this little vintage sweater…it was slightly snug when I bought it, and now, a few years later, it doesn’t fit at all. So I decided to deconstruct. First, I ripped up the side and arm seams, then inserted some contrasting dark orange knit fabric that adds a bit more breathing room. Despite the wonky seams, I’m happy with the way it turned out!

What a great way to put a sweter to a new use. If you hadn’t do this it might have just ended up in the landfil. It looks wonderful.
So very nice.
This is really great. Good job!
