A Liverpool woman earns up to £2,500 per month by transforming old tea towels into unique garments.

Scarlett Hawkes, 28, has always loved fashion and has been sewing since she was aged 14. But, after dropping out of university - where she was studying womenswear - she decided to continue to teach herself.

Learning the basics from YouTube and Google and launching an Etsy shop during the pandemic, Scarlett began upcycling her mum’s clothes but found her true calling when she transformed a Heinz ketchup tea towel into a dress. "
