You Will Need
-
Step 1Snag a loose fitting cardigan, oval doily and, of course, a pair of coordinating knee socks
-
Step 2*as I’m a confirmed knee-socks-as-sleeves addict & have written of their marvelousness numerous times on my blog I shall forego a lengthy step-by-step & simply leave this handy how-to collage for those who may be new to the fabulous socks-as-sleeves technique…
-
Step 3Once your sleeves have been fancied-up center the doily on the back of the cardigan just under the neckline & pin in place
-
Step 4Stitch it on
-
Step 5Chop out the cardi fabric behind the center of the doily (if desired)
-
Step 6Zig zag around the edge to prevent fraying & yer done!
-
Step 7pop your cardi on backwards & enjoy your kewl new top!
-
Step 8hmmm…but what to do with the chopped cardi sleeves…?
Stitch up the raw end then hand sew a loose running stitch around the top & tie a couple of beads to the thread ends to create…
-
Step 9a pair of fancy schmancy gift bags!
