DIY: 2020 Sweater HACKS! (Up-Cycle) -By Orly Shani 

That turtleneck version cracked me up. “My neck is so cold, but my chest and arms are ON FIRE. GET THE SCISSORS ✂️ “ 🤣

I seriously think that the sweaters you did look better on you than the ones that you pulled from the Internet. Excellent job!!!✨

So you can literally give someone a *cold shoulder* .... .... .... I swear I’m more fun in real life

That purple one is everything!! So pretty

I loved these, and although I don’t have the materials needed to complete the sweater after cutting it out, I have already done the cutting. And after watching your fab videos, I am slowly getting the basic materials needed for clothes DIYs! This is a perfect activity during lockdown!

That little calendar is the absolute best!!! ❤❤❤❤

I honestly love the way the sweaters came out. Also the looks at the end looked amazing.

You are just deep in thought, Orli. Not fair.

I'm absolutely obsessed with the dress😍

I like them all!!! I cut an old sweater, made an open sweater vest and sleeves into legwarmers.

I literally like the sweater top you’re wearing

Nice! The black one was my favorite!

Thanks for the hacks! Can't wait to transform some old sweaters!!

The lilac one with floral skirt is gorgeous... I’m literally running around the house grabbing old jumpers to hack up... Orly you smashed it yet again 👌🏼

Stunning. I love your hair color. I am definitely going to try this.

Omg 🥺🥺 this is the best sweater diy I ever saw in my life 🥺🔥 this is magnificent 🔥🔥💯

And if it’s cut too open, you could do the grommet and lace up for more detail. Or stitch under a fishnet or lace top to hold it closed more.

You always have great videos!!! The pieces looked just like the expensive runway ones. I’m not a fan of the one arm looks but that just my personal preference. The DIY design you did was spot on, just not my taste. I loved the lavender one on you!! That was my favorite of the ones you modeled. They all looked great on you but that light purple/lavender shade was just beautiful, I loved the flowing turtleneck style.

Really understand. My sis is usually happy but gets that all the time. I'm never really happy but can plaster a smile all day. Retail Life Baby.

I would love a calendar 😂😂 RBF does happen. (I know) Love your video! Have a blessed day!

I like your jacket very much and of course the pins safe and the way you ware it. Bravo kisses from Athens, Hellas.

That September face says it all:look, I'm the boss here.

Love your videos! But I was hoping you’d do an open shoulder but keep a sleeve. In the Midwest I need 2 sleeves 😅

I LOVE your channel so much! I cant tell you how many DIYs I've wanted to try but never get around to it. Wanted to upcycle sweaters and what do you know!! I did one of these and it turned out perfect! So wish I could share my finished product

Hahaha, the calendar is hilarious !

Loved all of you sweater designs but the star of the sweater showcase was the blue sweater you were wearing! I love, love, love it! Did you design it?

OMG !!! I just discovered you today and I loooovveee yourr content 😍😍😍😍 and how your skills are easy to use 🌹

This one I’m going to give it a try, the dress version, wish me luck 😁😁

So, asking for a friend, where can I get that calendar? 🤣🤣🤣 sooo funny!

It’s so weird this video was uploaded 13 hours ago and I didn’t get noticed from you tube and is not on my subscriptions 🤔🤔

Hilarious.

Love this

I DONT UNDERSTAND HOW YOU DONT HAVE MORE SUBSCRIBES YOU DESERVE TO HAVE millions 👏🏻👏🏻

I was literally searching for ways to cut a few sweaters I have and this video popped up. Divine intervention perhaps? ❤

10:01 right there! You remind me so much of Sandra Bullock in that moment! Maybe it's the dark hair. Idk but you look so similar!

That calendar was hilarious!! Loved it! I live in a colder climate, so I really wanted to see the one where only the shoulder was cut out but both the sleeves were still intact. Great DIY tho!

I love the safety pin buttons on your sweater! Did you come up with that idea, or did it come like that?

I loved the one shoulder sweater. I'm headed to the thrift store.

They all turned out so great! But I have a question how do you do the one with both sleeves and the cut out. That's the style I was waiting to see.

I love these sweater re-fashions, especially the grey cabled v-neck sleeveless one- I would wear that as a layering piece in the winter and transition to "as is" when it's warmer out! I love the sleeveless versions on you, although they probably aren't as practical for me given where I live and how cold I tend to get in the winter ;). As a knitter (and guess where I get most of my yarn: unraveled thrift store sweaters!) who has a sweater knitting obsession, it's so interesting to see a sewist so fearlessly steek (steeking = cutting knit fabric with scissors; it's most frequently done on Fair Isle stranded colorwork cardigans that are knit in the round and have to be cut open) a sweater, since the entire idea of that terrifies so many knitters ;). I wouldn't try that on any of my handknits, but damn...I'm going to go hit the thrift stores now for a cowl neck sweater I can transform into something like that and not worry about cutting it! Will take far less time than knitting a version of that (which I could easily do, and may do if I can't find a decent candidate elsewhere). Another tip if you want to make a sleeveless sweater to vest without concern of fraying or unraveling: instead of cutting, flip the sweater inside out and unravel the sleeve seams! Most sweaters are actually knit in pieces and seamed afterwards. Unless the sweater was cut from a single piece and serged together (easily identifiable by the serged seams...usually only found on really, really cheap brands), you can find the little crocheted seam "tab", usually at the center of the armpit, and after you clip it, simply "unzip" the sleeve. If it doesn't want to unzip, you've started from the wrong end, so find the tab on the other side, clip it, and the slip stitch crochet seam will unzip like a dream. Oh, and the RBF calendar was hilarious! We've all got pics like that ;-).

The sweater you're wearing with the safety pins is fun!

I have so many pics in my camera roll that my friends send me of those moments where I look the meanest!!! It’s just my face 😂😂😂 Also I loved the new ideas for my many sweaters I have and don’t use because Texas 🤦🏻‍♀️😂

Am I the only one that wants the calendar?👀👀😜 Love every hack!! I love remixing my old sweaters!! Love it!!

Seriously! OMG you are amazing! ❤️

I just recently subscribed and I'm obsessed with your channel 👏🏼

OMG! Thanks for this DIY! Have been looking at these sweaters for a few months.

0:11

They look great!! Love the calendar! We all have resting bitch face at some point. Even husbands though my husbands is more of a resting mean face. Lol

Ma'am want a DIY on sequin fringe dress or top... Plz make a video on this

Another HIT by my favorite fashion guru, “Orly” I LOVE it!!!

You are hilarious! I love you & your cool vids. 👍🏻👍🏻

OMG, I love how the red, lavender and other chenille sweaters turned out with the one arm off and a horizontal V cut in. I love sweaters but I overheat in them. This is right up my alley. TY.

You look gorgeous with all of them 😊 specially the first one ♥️

I love how she made more than 3 ☺️

Hello from the other side of the screen. Starting off the year with an amazing diy. ❤️

The thumbnail makes me so confused like why do you need a sweater if you're not even warm Regardless, love you!

These are a little young. Wish you could have made one with open shoulders, but covered arms.

I haven't even watched this yet, and I'm excited!!

I love the calender! Just so typical that woman is considered grumpy when a man would be said to be serious with the same facial expression. I like all your faces! And your courage to share even this with us.

Love this i have a jumper i just don’t wear i can definitely do this to

I would totally buy that calendar lmao, I can imagine your telling me to take no shit from no one while staring at my enemies, lmao! 🤣🤣🤣🤣

I LOVE the lilac one at the end! That one has a great neck!! Another way to do this, slightly more "grunge" maybe, would be to mark your neckline and then sew it with a machine where you want those lines. Then simply cut away inside the stitching leaving the stitching on the sweater. This will prevent fraying, but you'll have a little bit of a "raw hem" effect. Love the ideas!

I really love the one shoulder Red Sweater This is gonna have to be on my list of things to DIY this year
