Corinne: Here is our subject, in old leper print sweater. First turn it inside out, pin the two layers together and measure ten inches across the bottom starting at one at the side seats. Make a mark in between these two points and measure up about 8 inches. Now, cut its own shape to connect the points. Get your scissors and cut the shape out, but to make sure to cut about one inch outside to where the line is drawn.

Now sew it along the line. Take all your pins, trim the edge down and turn it right side up. Then all you got to do is tie it on and you have a sweet new hat. Now that you got your leftover sweater and cut it diagonalized starting at about two inches above the highest point of where your hat was cut out down to the beginning point of the opposite scene. Next, cut out the sleeves and cut all the way down to the bottom of the sweater, and repeat to the other side. When you have it all cut and opened it up, it should look like this.

Then, all you got to do is hem the edge with a zigzag stitch to create a levis edge and you have yourself a new panchell. Next, take out those extra sleeves, get to find to how to chicer on your hand and cut up the shape. Again, remembering the cut about an inch outside the line. Sew along the line and turn them right side out.
