Up-cycled Pink Cardigan

Crochet Flower Cardigan

I bought this pink cardigan at a thrift store probably two years ago.  I've been meaning to do something with it from the beginning but am just finally getting around to it.  I whipped up a few crochet sea pennies and flowers and sewed them on.  They kind of look like miniature doilies to me.  I like em!

Crochet Flower Embellishments

The pattern I used for the flowers come from Little Birdie Secrets and you can check out my tutorial on Crochet Sea Pennies to see how I made those.

Nothing makes me feel more girly than wearing pink and crochet at the same time :)

    Your sweater looks so nice. I haven't crocheted in so long but think I could follow a tutorial to remember how to get started. Thanks, I have some sweaters ready and waiting for this pretty change!
