Laptop Sweater: ThreadBanger Contest Entry

If you cut the wrist part of the sleves off you can slip them onto a hot or hot drink to keep your hands from getting hot or cold. :)) My aunt made a bunch of them when i was little and we still use them. Just an idea.

Hey guys...It's Katie from the video. just to clearify...the sewing machine is my mothers.

might nit be her machine she's using?

neat and very clear tutorial! i'm constantly looking for ideas of what to do with my old clothes. also, some of the comments will be really useful! what i particularly like is, that your instructions include finishing the raw seem allowances with a zig- zag stitch! when i began sewing i had no idea about that. later i was adviced by experienced sewers to always do it. it's crucial to keep the fabric from decomposing.

I like the project but I wonder if it wouldn't have been easier to start with the sweater inside out so that you don't have to unpin and repin it together before sewing. Just a thought.

interesting... but she has a sewing machine already! I hate to be rude but most of us have done this at some point in time....

yeah...i thought the contest was fer ppl who DID NOT have sewing machines :P

Neat! And I like the sweater that you used, the final product is soo pretty. I think I would prefer the hole on the side though, easier to keep from falling out.

LUV LUV LUV my mom has waaaay to many sweaters laying around! Great project.

Ahhhhh! Pins in carpet! No bueno! Cool project, though. :)

SOO SWEET!! :) I hope you win! it's really pretty and classic and easy!! :) I'm gonna make like 200 :)

i love it, i was thinking of making one, but its much easier to just sew a box like purse to hold it and not fall out at all and make it many more colors then just a one colored shirt.

awesome! but doesnt she have a sewing machine? (just wondering!)
