I love slouchy cardigans, and so does the rest of the fashion world, apparently. Instead of forking out money to American Apparel or FreePeople for one, I decided to just make one myself. See the steps below, and make sure to check my blog for sylings! www.katielikeme.com

I love slouchy cardigans, and so does the rest of the fashion world, apparently. Instead of forking out money to American Apparel or FreePeople for one, I decided to just make one myself. See the steps below, and make sure to check my blog for sylings! www.katielikeme.com

Instructions

1. 

   Firstly, find a sweater that you don't particularly mind cutting up.

2. 

   Lay the sweater inside out on a flat surface. I chose the floor because, why not?

3. 

   Find the center of your sweater and draw (or pin) a line down the front of the sweater. Cut down that line. Make sure you only cut the front of the sweater.

4. 

   Hem! Fold down the raw edge of fabric and sew it down to hem. You could use a machine, or you could hand stitch, and use a slip stitch.

5. 

   Voila! You're done with your new cardigan.
