Thrift Store Re-fashion Step One (or two)

I bought this fair isle sweater at the thrift store (it was huge). I had planned on felting it and making pot holders out of it, but when it was felted, it looked like it might fit me. I fulled it and dried it in the dryer for good measure, then removed sleeves, waist and neck bands and cut the front open. The fit is great–now I just need to do some fun finishing… Pinking shears to neaten up the edges, and a closure.
