Description

One less in my neverending stash. How could I resist to a wool & cashmere man jumper (size XL) for 2 €? I resized it completely (sleeves are always the worst part) and with the scraps I made up a sort of knotted collar (two tubes, twisted and hand-stichted together) to change it a bit.
One less… and other three or four knit numbers left… Maybe Easter Holidays?

Material Notes

Wool and Cashmere thrifted jumper, poly thread, buttons

    Such a great kashmir jumper available for 2€ that’s amazing! I should follow your example and begin with recycling. Unfortunately I am not a thrifty person at all. :redface:

    I love your knotted collar, looks great!
