Late Night DIY: Peplum Sweater with Elbow Patches



I've had this great cable sweater for a long time, but recently it went through the wash on the wrong cycle and shrunk. I've tried to style it a couple of ways, but it always ended up looking too small, so I decided to DIY it and make is something entirely unique.


So I went through my sewing bits and found some great eyelet lace racking that I could trip the sweater with. Pinned on a peplum, cut out some great elbow patches, and hand sewed it all together while watching Doctor Who.


I'm so incredibly happy with how it turned out, It looks so cute and revamped. The eyelet lace really lightens up the sweater and makes it carry on into spring as well as the winter. I can't wait to wear it to school once the snow gets cleared.
