-
get a regular sweater
(i used my moms 80's retro print one) -
cut out the arms with a tiny indent so your under tshirt shows
( you can use the arms for leg warmers afterwards) -
after you cut out the arms measure 1" or 1.5" from the collar and use a pencil or ruler to draw a "v"... the length of the "v" neck depends on how many inches you cut each side
-
make sure you lift up the neck part and cut only the front not the back
-
then just accessorize!! i used buttons for mine!
