Hello I just bought a sweater coat that is make of a double knit wool and need to shorten the sleeves. The sleeves finish with fold back cuffs that button.
cuffed
uncuffed
fabric edge
I still want them to fold back but don't need the buttons on them. I would be taking off alot - past the original crease from the cuff so the button holes wouldn't matter. I saw insrtuctions online about how you could basically open up the side seam unravel and refinish but I am not sure if that would work with this because I think it's a double knit.
Any advice is appreciated. i k now I can do the cut reinforce adn sew over but wanted to try something else first.
