Collar and add on decorations
This yellow summerjacket is applicable with all sorts of clothes and also very nice to wear. But a bit boring, if you ask me. Therefor I found some English broidery that my sister-in-law bought in a flea market in meters. I cut out an area that included lots of flowers and kept the edge. By doing so I could form this fabulous collar and I also added a curved edge to the bottom of the jacket. Now I’m really looking forward to wearing it next summer with my summerdresses.
Fleecejakke
One of personal favorit jackets is this pink fleece jacket. Which, by the way, I bought in a recycling shop for 40 DKK. As I am a great fan of colours and feminine expressions, I added my pink fleece jacket with a lace with pink and gold.
From traditional housecoat to fun kimono
My old housecoat made of terry, has always been a couple of sizes to big for me. And a bit boring. I cut of a bit of each side, took of the sleeves and sewed them back on. Only this time with ¾ length instead of long sleeves. I replaced the belt with a zipper and found some matching laces.
Silk kimono
This kimono is originally taylormade in Thailand. It’s made of silk on the outside and cotton on the inside. It has two pockets both on the inside and the outside. The traditional collar has been replaced with lace, by a zipper and a belt to be used when needed.
Homemade knitted sweaterjacket with belt
This is an example of how to use your leftover yarn. This is a sweaterjacket of mixed yarns such as Acrylic, wool etc. This is why I recommended the buyer to was on a wool program and preferably in a pillowcase or similar size. Corresponds to approx. size 58. You can find much more FieFit Redesigns in your size HERE. I have put a lot of hours and love into this sweaterjacket and I have now found a buyer, whom I hope will be as happy wearing it, as I’ve been knitting it.
Previously a jacket for men, now for women
This fabulous jacket for men, Bäumler brand, has now been redesignet for women. I’ve added lace on reverse, pockets on both the outside and also two pockets on the inside. New bottons on the sleeves as well as in front. The buttons in front are elastic which enables you to button it while still showing the lace in front. The quality is heavy Cotton and without linnen which makes it a perfect summer jacket. Breast (measured below sleeves): 114 cm. Length incl lace. 82 cm. Across shoulder to shoulder: 51 cm. As in most jackets for men, you will find shoulder pads. I chose to leave them be because they’re very thin. Possible to machinewas but I recommend using a laundrybag due to the laces. Whether to iron or not is up to you. Corresponds to approx. size 44-46.

Jacketdress
This Jacketdress started out as a long jacket. I cut it in half and kept the lining. It’s not a “Coat of many colours” but a coat of multiple choices. Wear it as an open summerjacket or zip it and use it as a Jacketdress or with a pair of leggings. As most of my redesigns, I’ve washed it on a Wool program and in a laundrybag. Fabric: In Danish we call it parachute fabric. Breast: 100 cm. Length: 100 cm. Corresponds to approx. size 40/42. Find more Redesigns in your size HERE.

Black jacket added colours and buttons
This jacket is soft and so nice to wear, but I thought it was quite boring and too black. I then added a band on the collar, changed the black buttons with some fun and coloured buttons maching the collar. Breast: 110 cm. Fabric is elastic. Length: 62 cm. Corresponds to approx. size 40/42.
Tunic or dress
A very elegant knitted blouse, has been redesignet by adding it to a summerdress made of pure cotton. The knitted blouse has been cut at an angle and then I’ve added the summerdress. The lenght has been adjusted to make it even all way round. The seam are marked with funny buttons made of wood. In the left side of the knitted blouse I’ve added a zipper in white and gold. This way it’s easier to put it on, and also to leave it open while wearing. When it’s open you can place a broche in the front to keep it open. The summerdress are in two layers in a sort of crepe cotton. The knitted blouse is very thin and esqusit, I’m guessing it’s a mix of wool and silk. Beams are added on the blouse in the same colour as the blouse. Breast: 104 cm. Measure from the peak of the knitted blouse and across: 130 cm. Length: 100 cm. Corresponds to approx. size 40/42. Find more Redesigns in your size HERE. Due to the fabric I recommend that you wash this dress on a Wool program and preferably in a laundrybag due to the beams, zipper and buttons. Remember to close the zipper during wash.

Shawlblouse/kimono onesize
A funny combination of laces and our old livingroom curtains. Length: 89 cm. Total width 150 cm. Corresponds to onesize. Find more Redesigns in your size HERE. Made for the Petite size who’d love to feel just a tiny bit bigger and for a Curve and Plus size who might want to let go of the big black shirt. I’ve added buttons to mark the sleeves and they can easily be removed or adjusted. Washing instructions: In a laundrybag and on a wool program. Remember that your great grandmothers table cloth made of lace, curtains, shawls and similar can easily be redesigned to something like this, a shirt, a blouse and much more. So do not throw it out. At least not before you’ve shown it to me and maybe we can come up with something real nice for you to reuse and to remember your great grandmother by.

From turtleneck to zipper
The same friend who gave me my “minkstola” (see more under ACCESORIES), also gave me this lovely turtleneck sweater in heavy Cotton. As mentioned earlier I prefer zippers as opposite to pulling shirts over my head. Even though it took a bit of courage, I manned up and cut it open in the front. Then I crochetted the edge all around and finally I added a zipper. I recommend using yarn that can be washed repeatedly. This means not using 100% cotton or 100% wool. Breast-, waist-, and hip measurements are 106 cm. Length 70 cm. Corresponds to approx. size 40/42. Find more Redesigns in your size HERE.

Open poncho
A closed poncho was cut open in front, and then I crochetted edges all around. A couple of braided strings and some funny buttons makes it easy to close it in front. Measurement from neck to bottom: 90 cm incl. fringes. Onesize. Find more Redesigns in your size HER. Fabric: acryl.

Knitted stola
Stola knitted of 100% very soft cotton yarn. Onesize. Again, I’ve used left over yarn, which is the reason for the funny color composition. Rarely used and thus never washed. I recommend washing on wool program and in a laundrybag in order to keep the shape, softness and airiness intact. Washing on 60 degrees delicate wash makes the knitting more tight and less soft.
Poncho
Poncho knitted of soft Merino wool yarn. Hardly ever used and thus never washed. I recommend a wool program or washed by hand. Preferably in a laundrybag to keep shape and softness. Measures 72 cm across from tip to tip. Length: 74 cm. Corresponds to a onesize. Find more Redesigns in your size HERE. Tryto put on a fur collar or pull a shawl through the holes in the collar. This way you can make the colors fit the clothes you’re wearing.

Homemade cotton sweater/vest
This yarn originates from a half finished sweater. I was permitted to start all over and re-use the yarn as I saw fit. It’s a very soft and good cotton yarn, knitted on pins size 7. I’ve added velvet yarn to the bottom edge. Use it as a sweater or a vest. You’ll find the recipe HERE. I’ve washed it on 30 degrees before I sewed it together and before I crochetted the edges. I recommend that you wash the sweater/vest on a wool programme in order to maintain the white colour. And preferably in a laundrybag which prevents it from stretching in all directions. Also in order to protect the heart on the back. Breast: 94 cm. Length: 79 cm. Corresponds to approx. size 42. Find more Redesigns in your size HERE.
