I LOVE stripes! I love everything about them. They are all through my house and my wardrobe. You could say I am addicted to them, I would go to prison just to snag up a striped jumpsuit…(ok no I wouldn’t but you get the point) I was at a store and this stripped shirt called out to me. It was a light gauze like thermal fabric (does that even make sense?) and oh the stripes. It was on clearance to 1.99! It had to be mine, but ekk, they only had one left and it was and x-small. I may be crazy from time to time but I am not unrealistic… however I snagged it up since it would be perfect to refashion and finding a good stripe is hard. To be honest I hung it in my closet so the stripes would cheer up my closet for awhile, and then it hit me, it would make the perfect cardigan with some nautical flair. only I changed up the stripes a bit since you can do that… it’s fun. let’s get started… |
