My Mother-in-Law found a bunch of this green sweater material at the thrift store.
I decided to use it to make a sweater dress that I can wear in the winter with a pair of tights.
I used this pattern, which I have used a few times before, but never with the sleeves.
Here is the end result:
This pattern is very easy to work with. I took a lot in on the sides, so it would be more form fitting, since the fabric would be bulky if I cinched it in with a belt. I ended up hemming the sleeves and the bottom, rather than doing a slip stitch. It took a lot less time and it ended up looking much better, in my opinion.
I need to take this one out for a test drive, since the weather is cool.
Who wants to go out for a drink?
