This! This is my absolute favorite thing I’ve made in a long while.
The pattern is the Toaster sweater #1 from Sew House Seven. It’s so cosy, so simple, and I love it. I want to wear it all the time.
Continue reading “Toaster Sweater #1”Back home again after a few days in the mountains. There was lots of snow and a sick kid, so we spent most of the time lazing about the house. I brought some mending with me, including this pair of jeans that I’ve patched up 4 or 5 times already (it’s become something of a personal challenge to see how long I can keep these jeans going!). This time I opted for a simple outside patch. Also stopped by @ateliertruckee and picked up a few little things for myself: @makingzine #labelsbykatm and a thimble (I seem to have lost mine). Such a beautiful store that made me want to learn to knit:) If you ever find yourself in Truckee check it out!
First big snow of the season. Thankful for a cozy warm house from which to admire this view.

Whipped up some #minihudsonpants last night, with added knee patches of course. It’s been a while since I’ve sewn something for the boy. This lovely soft sweatshirt fleece has been sitting in my stash since I made him a hoodie with it a few years ago (which was lost during the first week of kindergarten only to turn up at the end of the school year!) He is now just about too big for most kid patterns - I graded this pattern up to a size 12 to give him a bit of growing room. Anyone know of any tween boys patterns out there??

I now have a hat that matches my cropped Lander Pants 😂 What do you think - should I wear them together? It reminds me of a teacher I had in middle school who used to wear the same color head to toe, including a long skirt, turtleneck shirt, and big floppy brimmed hat - everyday! I would always try to guess what color she’d be wearing:) Now I wonder if she sewed them herself. 🤔
Made with the free #sorrentobuckethat pattern by @elbe_textiles This was a quick and easy sew! Great for #scrapbusting 🧡
