To achieve this playful transformation, start by choosing a fabric dye in your favorite color and follow the instructions to give your cardigan a fresh new hue. Then, measure the length of your cardigan's opening to determine how much ruffle material you'll need. With a sewing machine or a needle and thread, carefully attach the ruffles to the edges, ensuring they are evenly spaced for a symmetrical look. Not only does this provide an added flair, but it personalizes the cardigan to your style. The finished product will be a unique piece that's bound to grab attention and compliments!

10 Pleated + Bow
