7. Convert a Sweater into a Cardigan
It’s one of the oldest tricks in the book, but it’s a good one. If you have an old sweater that you really loved, but is just not working with your wardrobe anymore, or perhaps you see one in the shop, but wish it was a cardigan, you can easily convert it. The simplest way to do this is to just cut down the middle of the front of the sweater, but if you want to add some flair, sew on some buttons along one side—if they don’t match, that can also be a cute way to give it a unique style.
8. Converted Hoodie
This is another ambitious project, but when you pull it off, it will really be worth it. This blog has a detailed tutorial for how you can convert an old, baggy sweatshirt into this cute, stylish hoodie.
