Here's an easy idea to jazz up any old jumper lying around the house :)
I used this grey jumper that i bought in Primark ages ago! i think it was €14 and its so boring!
Firstly you'll never a scissors
A rotary cutter, this pizza cutter worked just fine!
A needle!
thread! Any colour any size, once it matches what your going for!
Firstly i cut this ugly flower detailing off the bottom of the jumper
i simply followed the inner stitching on the jumper and cut the remaining material off!
With the excess material i cut it into four stripes for making the bows, they do not need to be accurate at all!
Cut four slits into the back of your jumper, sadly i cut them too wide apart :(
Use the excess strips of material and wrap around the centre of cut pieces.
As seen below.
When happy with the position of the bows. You need to stitch the material to the jumper and then do this with all.
Once finished you now have yourself a bow backed jumper :)
Happy DIY days
