The first step will be to cut the old sweater in three places. First, you will cut the neck of the sweater in a fashion to create a swoop neck. The second cut will be at the bottom of the sweater. Make sure to use a ruler for this cut, so the cut will be a straight line. Lastly, you will cut the sweater straight up the middle but only on the front side of the sweater. It should look like the picture above.
