Step1: Raid your wardrobe and look for that perfect old jumper which you are most definitely never going to wear. (You can also try this technique with a new one if you like)

Step2: Getting these spikes. They come in different colors, sizes and styles. Sourcing them isn’t very difficult either, as they are very commonly available in the market and don’t really cost a lot.

Step3: Take your jumper and mark the points where you’d like to place the studs as per your will; I am going to place them on the shoulder top and the front side of the arm hole in this L-like shape.

Step4: Place the studs on the marked points and start inserting the lower screw from the inside very carefully and tighten them up. Voila! You’re done.

The best part about these spikes is that they work exactly like a screw therefore they’re easy to lock. You don’t need any sewing or gluing. Add more studs at different spots on your jumper if you like and give yourself a new look this season without spending money in a new spiked up sweater!
