Sequin Shoulders Jumper

I love the current trend of sequin shouldered jumpers and this is how I produced the look myself.

Sweater

Aquire an old sweater.
You could just buy a new one but where's the fun in that?
I used my old school P.E jumper.
If your sweater has an ugly neckline like mine did, cut that off. I also unpicked the logo.

Template

Make a paper template for the area you want to fill with sequins.
I made mine straight along the seams at the top of the arm and then curved around the shoulder.

Start Sewing

Sew small sequins around the edge of the template.
Then remove the template and fill the rest of the space with sequins.
You could just glue them on but I prefer sewing them to make sure they're secure.

Add Chain

For an added extra I sewed on a bit of chain just underneath the sequins.

Finished

Now go show off your shiny new sweater!
