Didi is the perfect jumper to level up your outfit without even trying. At first glance, this pattern might just seem like an ordinary jumper pattern. But Didi’s dropped shoulders and zip insert tell a different story. Are you sold on this jumper as a real showstopper but aren’t quite sure how to make it? We’ve put together a collection by some of your fellow Sewist(a)s to get you started.
Sleeveless
We just mentioned that Didi has dropped shoulders. That special cut makes it the perfect jumper to hack into a bodywarmer. And you all caught onto that instantly. Still not totally convinced that the bodywarmer hack is for you? Get inspired by the pictures below!
Knitted
Anyone who’s been on the high street lately is sure to have noticed – knitwear is hot & happening. For those who don’t feel like hauling out the yarn and starting from scratch, knitted fabric is the perfect solution. The Didi jumper's oversized cut makes it a shoo-in for creating a warm and cosy winter look. Just grab your mittens and a warm hat and head over to the ice-skating rink.
Colour blocking
The Didi jumper's various elements make it fantastic for colour blocking. And you all took every opportunity to cash in on that! For example, you could go for a subtle approach and only make the sleeves in a different colour. Prefer a more dramatic colour blocking effect? Go all out and make your sleeve(s), collar, and other sections all in different colours.
Fuzzy fabrics
Now that we’ve reached the dark heart of winter, we could all do with a generous dose of cosy. And what could be cosier than a jumper that feels like being wrapped in a warm bear hug? Make yours in a fuzzy or fluffymaterial. With that kind of fabric, your Didi is sure to be phenomenal – with or without sleeves. Does fuzzy sound good to you? Make the collar in a fuzzy fabric to give Didi a built-in scarf. Time to stay cosy!
Graphic
