Kids Clothes Week: upcycled knit tees

Sometimes simple is the way to go.

In the case of this thrifted tee, I’ve actually had it for years, and finally KCW pushed me to use it up!

I didn’t stray far from it’s original form-just cut it apart (using the slimmed down Nessie) and then resewed it up into a cute little tee!

I think my favorite part of this one is those cute elbow length sleeves on my little toddler!

I continued churning out slim Nessies for Sadie (and Charlotte, they wear pretty much the same size right now!).

I preserved the original sleeve tabs that this top had and I love how that turned out!

so easy too.

I’m totally looking out for more tees like this at the thrift shop.

this is a tee I used to wear, but it shrunk a bit so it ended up in the refashion pile-it’s not like I was gonna waste that GORGEOUS fabric.

  1. Gorgeous, you really put that thrift pile to good use!

  2. Too cute! Love your style and Nessies anyway.
    All the best!

  3. They all look fabulous! I just refashioned one with tab sleeves too, and it’s such a fun way to use those special elements!

  4. I love refashioning tees–such a great way to use fun details like the sleeve tabs! Also, my oldest has the same front teeth right now!

  5. Those sleeve tabs are just perfect. In fact I love that stripey top too much altogether. You’ve been busy and the girls are looking very well dressed for “free” clothes!

  6. Adorable!
