Today I’m guest posting at Finding Fabulous – a blog dedicated to finding fabulous design without spending a bunch of money.
So in honor of the idea of decorating for less & thinking outside the design box, I’ve done a tutorial on turning a {thrifted} cable knit sweater into a cozy pillow.
Click over to Finding Fabulous to see how simple it is.
{p.s. I’m not sure when the post will be up, so check back a little later if it is not yet there}
***UPDATE***
The tutorial post will be up tomorrow morning. Sorry about that.
i like how this looks, whats great about this is that you can go to a thrift store and buy an inexpensive sweater to make this. will sewing affect it? cause it is a knit sweater will the sewing come apart?
Groovy pen up, that was useable proportionality, makes me duty to buy one. me and the fam are in the industry for a new mattress. Fashionable to see pics of the household. Thanks!
Can’t wait to see this tutorial as I have a white cable-knit sweater I don’t really wear, it would look great on my country cozy look bed!
I was also looking for the sweater pillow tutorial and couldn’t find it. Re-post, please!
It looks so cute….but I couldn’t see the tutorial. :( Could you re-post it on your blog? I had a hard time locating it on Finding Fabulous, and once I did, the pictures didn’t show up. I love the step by step pictures along with the instructions. Hope to see it here soon! Thanks!
Agreed! I would love if you post the tutorial! I couldn’t find it on Finding Fabulous either, and this pillow is so cute!
Same here! Dying to make some of these but can’t find the tutorial on the other site :(
oops, wrong post…back to ‘what I wore’.
I love it all. And would it be completely weird to add that you have nice knees (see dress photo)??? I’m always jealous of cute knees… :-D And its completely scrumptious that your sweet girl is smiling on the floor in one of the shots. How fun.
i love this! here’s mine that i made last year :) http://queen-of-the-house.blogspot.com/2010/02/using-what-i-got.html
Wow the sweater pillow is wonderful and so are the comment ideas.
Hey, I can use the sleeves and neckline to make the candle holders from bystephanielynn.com and then the body of the sweater for one of these – thrifted and no waste!
Not too sure how I feel about the revamped website?
Yea! I want one if these cozy pillows! Can’t wait to read the post!
That screams cozy to me!! I’ve always wanted to get some thrifted sweaters to make mittens. That would be a perfect use of scraps for this project – two projects in one thrifted sweater! Thanks for the fantastic tutorial!
