I just make it up as I go!

So it all started when I couldn't find the perfect little yellow sweater for my toddler. And by perfect I mean yellow. No yellow cardigans?! None, zip, zilch, nada. Say what! Doesn't the fashion industry realize that the vaguely putrid mustardy shade of yellow is trendy?! So I went in search of some yellow yarn to knit one...but the shades I found locally were in the wrong thickness of yarn.

Next option, t-shirts! While not the mustard yellow I wanted, they're still yellow, a cheery sort of yellow but not neon or too bright! These shall do. I bought two of them in the next size up because she's in-between sizes, and well, it'll be going over the top of other clothes so the extra wiggle room shouldn't hurt.

Then I procrastinated. One got dirty, and washed and dried. And they sat here. I scoured the Internet for examples of what I wanted the front of this t-shirt makeover to look like but never really found 'the' inspiration. So I'm going to make it up as I go. Wish me luck!
