A Touch of Embroidery

Initially, when I found this retired top of my dad's, I planned to crop it and alter it for myself. After discussing with my brother, I realised it might actually make for a nice addition to his wardrobe, instead of mine. All it needed was a little touch of Pickle (me).

We chose green, because my brother wanted to start expanding the colours in his wardrobe (this also prompted me to give him a green earring I'd lost the twin for).
I considered stitching crosses all the way down the sleeves, but after completing the first parts, I realised I definitely didn't have enough thread for that. Instead, I added the blanket stitching along the collar to bring the look together.
