Any sweater to cardigan transformation that only takes 10 minutes is just right for me. The tutorial that accompanies this article would be perfect to follow for any rarely used sweaters that are in need of a makeover. Thinner rather than bulky sweaters work best for this technique. Sweat shirts are perfect too.
