I instantly fell in love with this sweater from J.Crew (like most things I see at J.Crew). So, I decided to recreate my own version, especially since it's no longer available online (in any of the three colors).
Wow! I just found your blog and this tutorial after I blogged about that sweater being a great DIY idea! What a coincidence. You did such a great job! Erin @ www.thanksimadeitblog.com
You have an awesome awesome awesome blog!!! Not only am I going to follow you but I hope you don't mind me reposting this on my blog. I will link back of course.
I too fell in love with this sweater---but really? $90 for something you can totally make? Thanks a million for sharing! I only hope it's a fraction as adorable on me as it is you!
just found you from oh happy day and i have to say, this is amazing! i had that sweater on my christmas wishlist and it was sold out everywhere. where did you find the sweater? it looks like h&m but i can't tell. would you mind emailing me? britsbigelow@gmail.com
so glad i found your DIY post via Pinterest! i'm already planning out how i'm going to do mine, but I was wondering if you tried to find 100% wool felt or a smaller % wool mixed with rayon or something. Also, do you know how wash/dry safe yours is? I'm hoping mine will last a while :) Thanks so much and I will definitely keep looking back at your blog for future DIYs and other inspiration! :)
I used a piece of pre-washed wool felt (available at most quilting stores) only to prevent it from pilling once I washed it. I have also washed mine a couple of times and it is still in great shape. I wash it in the washing machine under the hand wash setting. Good luck!

Love the sweater, but love you nail polish even more! Did you later a gold flake polish over black? Which polishes did you use?
