  • In this video, I show a very simple sweatshirt redo. It is a cardigan style jacket that is very versatile and can be worn with many outfits. I would consider this a beginners project. Thanks so much for watching!

    LOVE your sweatshirt videos! Any chance you could show yourself wearing the item you create?

      Yes. Wearing it or if you have a dress form to show it on so we can see it better would be great for those like me who hesitate to begin cutting into a sweatshirt. (I’d probably end up with it in pieces. 😳 😱 lol ). Thanks. Love the idea.

    I love this, & so simple to do. I have a navy sweatshirt I've never worn. This would be a great idea for it as its something I'd wear often. I think a cardigan is so much more useful than a sweatshirt.

    Julia, I love a sweatshirt cardigan. They're so practical...a third layer that isn't a sweater. (I have cats) This one is so pretty and inspires me to to do this with a recently purchased sweatshirt that was advertised as 100% cotton, but isn't. I find synthetic fibers uncomfortably warm but maybe tolerable opened down the front. Love the way you opened and finished the side slit....lots of really good ideas! Thank you for sharing your artistic visions.

    • @stitchesbyjulia

      Hi, It is so hard to find 100% cotton sweatshirts. The one I used in this video is 80% cotton and 20% poly. It is a Comfort Color and style #1566. Comfort Colors recently came out with a new style #1466 that is 100% cotton. It is lighter weight.

    Very cool, functional design. I bought 5 of those sweatshirts and embellished for myself. Love the fabric content and worn look. They are so warm and comfy. How many of these could I use? Daily wearing is what I'm working toward. Great for sleeping as well.

    How cool!!! I wonder if I could do that with an old hoody! The hood would probably need to be cut off, yeah?
    I used the pockets off a super old zip up sweatshirt for my husband's pocket less sweats! 😂 He loves those things now!
    These videos just make me want to try! They're so encouraging.
    Thanks Julia, have a great week!

      Find a sweatshirt at a thrift store and give it a try. I think you will be happy with the results. Once you do it once it's not so scary cutting into a shirt. Thanks so much for watching, Julia

    Your video was the nudge I needed to re-make an almost new pull over sweatshirt I never wear. I did not catch however how you finished the side vent banding. I saw the applique stitch on the fleece part but did you go back and add that to the ribbing?

    • @stitchesbyjulia
      @stitchesbyjulia  6 місяців тому

      Hi, I'm so glad this video inspired you to re-make one of your sweatshirts. I have tried finishing the band with different stitches without much luck. The band tends to stretch. I leave the band unfinished. It is a stable knit and does not fray. Hope this helps, Julia

      @terrychristens9110 Hi, I just measured one of my XL. Laying flat on a table, it measures 25.5” across the front below the armhole. It measures 22” at the bottom band. There is very little shrinkage in these shirts. Let me know if you need more measurements. Julia
