I sewed this pullover because I wanted to buy the Men's Microdini 1/2-Zip Fleece Pullover from Patagonia but the price was just too steep for me. To sew this zip-up, I used fleece blankets that I bought from Savers as my raw materials to save on cost and be sustainable. In the end, I'm glad I saved the money but what's more important is that I created something with my hands and I didn't give into the false promise that buying something new will make me happy.
