Today I am sharing a recent alteration. I love the color of this sweater, but my closet trolls have been busy and poked a few holes into it.
I almost threw it out and then realized that it would be prefect to turn into a shrug. I cut the bottom of the sweater off, removed the stitching in the V-neck and cut open the front.
I raided my lace stash and found a match, which I sewed around the outside edges. Standing back I decided it needed more lace. Finally I used a ribbon as a tie closure.
Hope you all enjoy.

That's gorgeous! I love blue with white lace, nice save
Wow, I can hardly even tell it's the same sweater! It's so nice to save something destined for the trash bin. Great job!
