Yes, I finally made my very first top. *I did modify it so that the sleeves weren't poofy. It was a bit tricky using this recycled yarn since it splits so easily. But I am fairly happy with how it turned out. I even recycled the button!! You know how your clothes comes with extra buttons, in case you lose one? Well, I took one if those I had tucked away in a drawer and made it useful.
So this is what the original BR shell looked like. It was just hanging in my closet - I haven't worn in a while so I decided to frog it for the minisweater.
This is what it looked like after frogging and wound up int center pull balls.

Four Truths and a lie, you're it!
Awesome job on your minisweater! And what a great use for a sweater. I still haven't gotten up the nerve to unravel one I own yet, but I really should, I have so many I don't wear. I too recycle those extra buttons! Great job!
