Hi hivers, as every Monday I bring you a sewing project to nurture my participation in the @needleworkmonday community, where we support each other and keep the creativity active. Today we are going something eco friendly, give a second life to that old sweater, so go get it, thread, scissors and needles.
First step, separate your sweater, cutting the sides, the sleeves, leaving 2 pieces, take one of them, if you want to try with different fabric the measures are 60cm x 60cm, depending on the size of each one, you can increase about 3cm on each side.
Now, fold in 4 parts your piece and on the side of the edges without folding, cut from corner to corner or making a semicircle, as shown in the picture, now open that there are 2 parts with the oval edge as you can see in the picture.
It's time for the thread and needle, start sewing and ruffling until you reach the end, joining the parts, as shown in the photo. Now we proceed to decorate, I like flowers, so I put them together with scraps, making braids that I then sewed in a circular shape and join next to the cap covering as much as possible the opening, however you can leave it open or decorate to personal taste.
And we are ready to show off our eco friendly hat, these are ideal for cold weather, at least that was my intention, but in warm weather with lighter fabrics they are also comfortable and cool to wear, giving a plus to your outfit. Remember that creativity is free and you can build yours in your own way and tastes, for more inspiration visit @needleworkmonday.
Thanks hivers always for the support and motivation. The photos were taken with the Xiaomi Redmi Note 8 Pro phone and edited with Canvas. Again thanks HIVE we continue to be creative and productive.
