Hello Everyone!
Here is a sweatshirt with a little twist!
After:
The Twist? A panel of damask in the front, no bottom rib, and no terrycloth! But, I still consider it a sweatshirt. At least it still feels as comfy as a sweatshirt.
.
The inspiration was this little article about "Luxe Sweatshirts." I love a sweatshirt just like everyone else, and why not make it "LUXE?"
.
.
Once I found this piece of damask fabric for $1 and the unused man's shirt below, I knew I had a match.
.
.
.Here you can see a close-up of the fabric from the man's shirt. It is a beautifully weighted 1x1 knit.
You can see the entire tutorial here.
"til later,
Love ya!

Mary,
I attempted to comment on your blog but got a message stating I didn't have permission to be there. Here's my comment:
What clever information and tips you've shared... and always share! It's too hot to wear sweatshirts here in the Pacific, but I could certainly accommodate these tips with a T-shirt, now, couldn't I?
Your sweatshirt is adorably LUXE indeed!
Happy refashioning,
Kelley~
Compfy and classy. Nicely done.
