#33 Back to School: Updated Black Cardigan for the Back to School Wardrobe

#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.
