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!
Very Cool, I'm going to place my heart somewhere else though off to the bottom and side! ove this! Thanks for sharing I just found your blog through 25 DIY fall fashions!
I am loving these DIY projects you are doing!
