One of my friends gave me a cut up white tee shirt. Her son had a bloody nose and wiped it all over her shoulder. She cut the yucky part off and saved the rest for me.
I love that embellished little flower thing!
Someone else gave me this cream turtle neck sweater. I HATE turtle neck sweaters! I feel claustrophobic in them, plus it’s not a good style for my body. I cut that baby right up the center and hand sewed the beautiful embellished flower on one side.
I sewed along the edges so they looked more finished than the raggedy scissor cut. I think it’s called a “lettuce” edge, because it curls up a little into a wave.
Looks just like lettuce, right?
Thanks for looking!
Love,

Magnificent, your cardigan looks so good, you'd never think it used to be a turtleneck. Very pretty embellishment

Did you keep the turtleneck part? It looks like you kept it and have sort of a collar left over, but there's no photo of the back. This looks so cute, I have to know what you did with the neck (in case I decide to do it myself!). :)
