    # Now I'm showing you guys how to re position all the pieces that you cut earlier, now I hope you can see the legging already take shape...
    # Owh do you see the shoulder part from the sleeve

    #1. will be your waist and butt...
    #2. will be ur tights and bcoz of the natures of my cardigan have big opening in the front I need to cover the small opening with
    #3 shoulder part that we cut earlier lastly
