Featured: Leather Elbow Patch Tutorial

January 5, 2014 by Heather Damron

It’s amazing how something as simple as elbow patches can take a cardigan from meh to totally awesome. I am probably going to have to delve into my ridiculous collection of cardis and give this a try. I especially love the colored leather. So cool.

If you want to add some elbow patches to your cardis, head on over to Freshly Picked for a beautifully photographed tutorial!
