Since my pledge ends December 31, I wanted to finish one more refashioning project! I decided to modernize a red cowl-neck sweater and combine it with an old gray t-shirt of my husband's.
I cut off the bottom ribbing, which was too high on me and sewed on the bottom part of the gray t-shirt. I also altered the neckline and made a smaller gray collar out of the sleeves. I cut the sleeves of the red sweater to a 3/4 length and wall-ah! A modern mini dress! I think I'll look for some gray leggings or maybe wear it with skinny jeans sometime. It's really comfy!
This is my last entry for now. :( I really enjoyed the refashion experience, but don't have enough time to devote to it. I learned a lot and plan to pledge again at a later date. One of my New Years' resolutions is to make my carbon footprint smaller, which will undoubtedly include some refashioning! Thank you for the much-needed inspiraion. Happy New Year and Happy Refashioning!
