I had a brown hoodie that I never seemed to reach for. The color was lovely though, warm and chocolatey. And it had raglan sleeves which are so comfortable. And pockets too, side ones instead of the usual kangaroo ones most hoodies have. So many good things but it still went unworn. It didn't seem much of a risk to upcycle it.
I snipped off the stretchy ribbing around the bottom and the sleeves and chomped off the hood.
Some gray fabric with strawberries and sunshine seemed just right. And lining in a warm yellow green. And binding in an even warmer yellow green.
Wavy quilting made me happy.
And the finished jacket/sweater made me even happier.
I'm pondering a button. Or not.
