Sweater too large...
I've knitted a man's sweater with fair isle border...it's too large for any of my men (husband, sons). I can either rip it out and do over or try to cut and sew seams to get proper size. Has anyone done this and does it work?

I didn't cut, but I did sew seams on my son's black cardi and that worked beautifully! It wasn't a huge adjustment, and I sewed down the edges ot the seamed material so they weren't flopping around.
