What You'll Need:
X-long cardigan (found at Old Navy)
5 yards lace trim
Scissors
Needle
Thread
Lay the cardigan on a flat surface. Place the lace on top of the lapel, right side down. Pin in place around the entire sweater, giving a little more leeway at the neck. Sew down the lace along the lapel, using a straight line of tiny stitches.
Next, fold the lace over so the correct side is facing up, and iron flat. Sew the lace down around the scalloped edge to hold in place.
Hey, you gotta admit, when dressing for a morning class, it looks chicer than a pair of sweats.
