Do you ever come across that really comfy sweater in the back of your closet that still fits but you don't wear it anymore because it is a little too plain? Well I did recently and I would like to show you what I did to give this sweater a burst of life again. 
I took the plain blue knit sweater and stitched in a pattern using this pink zpagetti yarn that i picked up at the craft store. (source)
I used a crochet hook to guide the yarn through the knit holes creating this triangle pattern.  It was a very simple project to give this old sweater a new look.
