Boohoo DIY Winter Knitwear

12 December 2012


Check out the boohoo YouTube channel here.

So you guys know that I love a good clothing customisation, even if my skills are very limited. I'm slowly trying to improve my attempts and add little details to my clothing, and I started off with the super easy task of adding studs to one of my winter jackets.

Now I seem to have caught the DIY bug and have been scouring YouTube for tutorials that look like even I might be able to follow them. I think the one above by Boohoo is amazing, I love the elbow patch trend and sequins instead of the usual tweed or leather jazzes the look right up! It really is the perfect way to add a bit of festive sparkle to your winter knitwear if you're on a budget-and if you don't have a sequin skirt to hand that you fancy cutting up I know you can get sequinned fabric from a variety of places for a reasonable price.


What do you think of this idea? I really want to get some black sequin fabric and glitz up this gorgeous red jumper or perhaps some gold sequin patches on this cream one.

  2. I've been meaning to do the sequin elbow patch thing for ages since I saw a step by step DIY on A Pair and a Spare but I've never got round to it yet. You may have just reinspired me, that cream jumper is perfect for it.
