Making A Cardigan

Hello Refashion Co-op. I had this shirt and this dark green sweater that I liked together, but the sweater covered the pretty flowers on the front. I decided to make this sweater into a cardigan style sweater. 

I used the sweaters weave as a guide for my cutting and cut straight up the middle of the sweater.

 I folded the raw edge under and hand stitched it in place. I hate hand sewing but this actually only took about 5 minutes.

It is very comfortable and more useful as a cardigan instead of a pullover.
