Cut the Arms Off an Old Sweater for This Cute DIY Sweater Vest
Hi everyone. Today, I’m going to show you why you should cut the arms off of an old sweater that you never wear.
This simple change transforms your old sweater into a cute and trendy sweater vest that you can wear on its own or with a shirt layered underneath.
So grab an old sweater that's sitting at the back of your closet and let’s jump into the tutorial.
Best fabric glue!
Tools and materials:
- Old sweater
- Scissors
- Pins
- Needle and thread
1. Chop your sleeves off
Follow the natural sleeve seam of your sweater and remove the sleeves with a pair of sharp scissors.
2. Sew the raw edges
Fold the raw sleeve hole edges inward and pin them down. Then sew them to prevent fraying.
