Day 9: Turn an old sweater into a dress


This is an old sweater and as you can see it is too big. However, the print is too cute so I turned it into a dress. 

The first step to do that is to cut the sleeves ofF. No patterns just follow the seamline of the sleeves. If it is to big for you, you can adjust it by going a few centimeters up. Sweaters are stretchable so you don't need a pattern, just simple estimate. Or trace another sweater that fits you perfectly. 


As for the sleeves, we can use the wrist area just like what I did in Good Little Girl Dress


See how I just make a simple sleeve pattern? That is the basic shape of a sleeve.

Anyway, here is how it looks like now:
