I have had this little black sweater in my closet for years. I keep it there because I need little black sweaters that I can throw on over a dress or a tank top and jeans. The thing is that I never pick this sweater. There isn’t really anything wrong with it, it’s just kind of blah. So after years of folding and refolding the same sweater over and over I decided it’s time to move it to the refashion drawing board. My refashion drawing board is really my dress form. When I have no idea what I want to do with something I put it on my dress form and stare at it for awhile. If I still have no good ideas then I leave it there and I look at it from time to time throughout the day and generally by the end of the day I’ve come up with something.
Here's the end result:

Really liking cropped sweaters, they look so good matched with high waisted jeans/trousers. Nice refashion!
ReplyDeleteOne of the reasons that I like cropped sweaters is that I can wear them with tanks or t-shirts underneath or tossed on over a sundress to "winterize" it.
