Boot Socks-Old Sweater Remake

After a series of snow days, thanks to winter storms Q and Rocky, I had clothing remakes on the mind. I spent several hours one day remaking a men's shirt into a halter top and altering the sides on a few other tops. 
I happened to be wearing an old sweater while I was looking for clothing remake ideas. The fabric was snagged in a few places and the edging was tearing away from the shirt. I decided to wash the sweater, hack off the sleeves, and make boot socks with the old sleeves. I did some 'Pinterest Research' on remaking sweaters into boot socks and found a cute idea for edging the top in a coordinating ribbon. They turned out so cute! I can hardly wait to wear them. (If you want to make your own, simply cut off the sleeves off an old sweater and hem the cut edge.)
