The Pilgrimage to Santiago de Compostela is a centuries old trek across northern Spain done by following "The Camino de Santiago", the road to Santiago. Before February of 2001 I had not heard of "The Camino" nor of the Pilgrimage. By the end of October of that year I was in Santiago after completing the walk myself. I thought that when I reached Santiago my journey was over but I see now that my journey started way before I got to Spain and still has not ended.

I Am Learning To Sew- Project 15
I saw this sweater at Marshalls and disliked how the zippers looked
and how heavy they made the sweater weigh but then I realized I could
fix those problems by removing the zippers and resewing the seams.
Zippers removed.
Seams sewn together again. I used yarn and a darning needle.
I like your version of the sweater better than the original. Those zippers, besides being heavy, would get cold faster than the woven part of the sweater. All around it was a dumb idea to put them in.
What a great observation, Ally, I had not thought about the zippers conducting cold. I just thought it was a dumb idea because it made the sweater look stupid. Thank heavens for design fails that end up at Marshalls for me to buy and fix. ;)
