Hello Shiny Crafty People and welcome back!
Today I’m altering a baseball jersey my friend asked me to make smaller for him. He could only get it in the size XL but he really needed a medium.
Now, you’ll see that I didn’t really alter the entire thing because that would have meant taking all the pieces apart and making all of them smaller and it would not have addressed the neckline being too big since I can’t add fabric back to the opening.
Instead, I want to show you an easier way to make both the sleeves and the sides smaller so that it shrinks the overall circumference of the sleeves and the body of the shirt.
I hope you can put this technique to use making shirts and dresses smaller in a few easy steps!
And until next time, Stay Crafty!!
