Cowl Like a Wolf: A Sweater to Skirt Refashion

I found this cowl-tastic sweater at the shop for a few bucks.
Yikes!
 I liked the cable-knit texture and color of this sweater, but the fit up top was horrendous!  The neck was pretty out of control, too.
Peek-a-boo!
Time to gift this sweater with a new life for the holiday season!

Scallops for Thanksgiving: An Attached Jacket/Dress Refashion

There is a special place in my heart for this dress; someone really tried to design something spectacular.  Unfortunately, on me, this just didn't cut it.  
Can't stop looking at scalloped edge...
 Yes, that is a scalloped edge to the jacket attached to the skirt; yes, those are ties for the back; yes, those sleeves have some puff; and yes, that material is frankly awesome.  This dress deserves an up-do.
