I got my hands on an Asbell wool pullover some time ago and the sleeve openings were just too big and baggy for my taste so I took an old sweatshirt and spent some alone time with my wife's sewing machine...here is the results. An elastic cuff that fits back in under the cuff if the wool...the pics will hopefully tell the story.

Hey! Good idea!
Nicely done. Fine post-manufacture engineering :-)
Ron
Great idea. Keep that wind from blowing up in there to.
Plus now you got something to wipe your nose on :) Neat mod.
Teresa made a camo pullover? I didn't know that.
Thanks guys...
Stumpkiller...I am the second owner, so not sure how long she offered it or if it was a special order.
Jake,
That is a nice job, I like it.
Nice!

She made those a loooong time ago. I have one, it might be 10-12 years old. I am not sure if she still has any of the material.
I like the cuffs. I guess next time I am at Goodwill I will look for a sweatshirt to cut up. Don't believe I will be doing the sewing though, probably wouldn't turn out as good as yours.
Nice job Sewer :p
