I just want to share this sweater DIY project I did last night in a furious anger at fast fashion. If anyone wants specific construction details, I can try to provide answers to questions! But in general, it was very slapdash and haphazard and I don’t recommend anyone just jump straight into turning one piece of clothing into an entirely other piece. It takes a lot of practice and… battle-hardenedness… to not give up or be too perfectionist with this kinda stuff. So if you’re already a sewist, give something like this a go! If you’re not a sewist: become one!
