First Re-Fashion

First sewing and clothing upcycle for 2013.

Cable knit sweater didn't fit right so I found a much better fitting one at Value Village and saved the old one for this project I found on Pinterest.


Ta da! A new skirt and leg warmers.

Love love love it!! Did you hem the skirt? I totally want to find a cableknit sweater to do this too!

I hemmed the waist - which was the collar previously - since it's hidden under shirts I did it by hand.

The leg warmers are almost identical to the "boot socks" Conrad bought me for Christmas...I think calling them boot socks makes them way cooler, lol! Did you sew in the arm holes by hand too?

yep, sewed those too, tried making them pockets first but didn't work so just sewed them shut.

AWESOME job!! (and I agree with Pam ~ "boot socks" sound much cooler than legwarmers!)
