This outfit is an Ogden Cami and some Bob Pants. Yes, more of each. This was actually my first pair of Bob Pants, made with some navy silk noil I got from Fancy Tiger Crafts awhile back. I had 2.75 yards and it was just enough for these pants. I can’t describe...

This outfit strikes me as a Jedi-pirate vibe. When I put in on this morning with these dirty-hair-don’t-care pigtail buns, Matt was amused and proceeded to look for a Star Wars picture with this vibe. I’m loving creating a relaxed wardrobe. Over the...

Ta-da! Here’s the Striped Wedge Pullover that I finished ages ago. I finished it a few weeks ago but neglected to block it (and it really needed it) until a few days ago. Unblocked, the wedge portion sticks up much higher than the rest of the front. I was a...

This weekend I made a Washi Dress by Made by Rae. I used some double gauze from Mood Fabrics in quartz pink. I love this dress so much. I plan on making several of them. I feel like it’s flattering, comfortable, and it has pockets. What’s not to love? I...

All I want to do these days, knitting-wise, is knit socks. I have an almost done Rift tee (not socks) done, but it’s a part that requires some attention so I put it down. I finished a pair for Zooey and one for Matt (pictures coming soon), and then I promptly...

I continue to sew at home when I get large chunks of free time, and knit while I’m at work on phone or video sessions. Knitting is also super comforting at the end of the night when my brain is exhausted and I want to just relax. Lately sewing is what I turn to...

I thought it might be time to put some kind of sewing content up on the blog. This post involves much more personal info than I usually put out there, so if that’s not your jam, no worries. I talk about some body issues/body positivity as part of my sewing...

This is the knit I’m working on most right now. It’s the Striped Wedge Pullover by Frog & Cast, still. I’m a lot further along than these pictures show. I took them a couple of weeks ago and haven’t gotten around to blogging. I’ve...

I saw this back in February on Instagram and fell in love instantly. The pattern is called Striped Wedge Pullover by Frog & Cast. The yarn is Purl Soho’s Linen Quill. Sweet Potato and Honey Pink are the colors I’m using. I wanted something that felt...
