I liked the pattern of this sweater, but it was way too big. I decided to refashion it into a fashionable oversize cardigan.
I cut the sweater down the front middle.

That's it. Ready for use.
It is pretty, very warm, as a cardigan it does not drown my body, and it is also much more versatile as a cardigan. But I am still not quite convinced that oversize flatters my short and curvy figure.

Lovely refashion. I do like cardigans they are so cozy.

I've done this also... I would recommend taking in the sides a bit. At least pin them to see if it would make you happier.
