Using my stitch-ripper of justice to remedy egregious acts of sartorial aggression that had been committed on two cotton sweaters I just bought. I just have this notion that a heavy cotton cardigan generally shouldn't clank when it moves. (Thin, bendy aluminium circles sewn onto a heavy black sweater all the way around the hips, with one each at the back of the wrist for good measure.) Or have bits of thin, cutesy bandana cotton appliqued onto it in random places with thin, flimsy buttons in the shape of turtles sewn onto the applique just in case, you know, there wasn't enough embellishment encrusting the poor thing.
