Reconstruction Help Needed
Well, I bought a pair of lovely 'ankle length socks' with that pretty embroidered motif at Calzedonia's from children's collection , and to my biggest surprise the things what I thought would be socks are stockings.
First I thought this isn't a tragedy since most of my fancy coloured stockings from my childhood do still fit perfectly, but this one turned out to be too small.
What should be done if not giving them to a younger relative, or throwing them into the trashbin?
So: my question is whether the stockings could be transformed into socks by magic? Or by skillz...Have any of you ever tried something like this? Is cutting the wanted part off and then finishing the seams a valid solution, I mean, is it possible?
The motif is attached very precisely to the stockings, so it seems rather impossible to remove it from it's original place and sew/glue/iron it on a different item.
Any advice and tips are highly appreciated, just don't call me stupid, please :}
