#33 for self-challenge: Back to Elementary
School Wardrobe
I am shopping only the closet for this school year. This is the end of month five. I have not bought any clothing and only two fabrics needed for a re-fashion.
Every re-fashion is needed for the school wardrobe.
BEFORE: Black sweater from the closet.
PROBLEM: I have had this for years. Large gold trim dated it. I remember wearing it once with a gold turtleneck.
STEPS: Very carefully used a seam ripper to remove the hand stitched
gold trim.
AFTER: The knitted in tassel design could not be removed, but does not overwhelm.
Sweater is more basic and versatile
for back to school days.

That gold cord really commanded attention didn't it. You calmed it down nicely.

I agree with Chickie -- taking off the gold cord turned it something more subtle. Great job.

It's amazing how different this looks just by taking out the gold trim. Bravo!
