The second life of a cardigan


Well I told you in this post, that I didn't throw away the scraps! 
Above is what I made out of this one sweater. 

Not to shabby eh?
I just ended up doing a lot of experimenting, trying to make the best use out of the fabric I had. 
Cutting up and piecing it back together.


 I even made a lil purse out of the pieces with pockets!

So she got a cute little hat and mitts, as well as a skirt and sweater vest (oh and the purse).


So my sweet heart cardigan lives on!


And after all that I still had some scraps leftover.....


 ..... don't worry these made their way to the garbage!
