Sweater Transformation: Non Bedazzler Edition pt 2

Fresh out of the dryer.

I even tossed in a white bed sheet to see if any dye came off. Both left the dryer unscathed. I'm quite pleased with the result. The navy is pretty true to navy. Its got a purple cast, and is not a 'bold' as one would expect. I like the subtle look of the color.

I'm also pleased the cotton shrank a bit and I don't look as doughy as I did prior to this ordeal. That had me in the dumps for the whole day. The suckie news is you can now tell where they used polyester thread on the garment. Its on the grosgrain around the collar and the button holes. Not to worry, I plan on adding more button holes and facing the placket with cotton so it won't stretch out.

Now I get to choose buttons! It's back to the button box!
Muhahahahahah!!!!!!!!!!!
