Lunearia is off the needles and I could not be happier with them. Next up: Ipomoea. Timeline hampered slightly by impending Secret Project deadline and a hurt-y shoulder.

I haven’t wanted to wear a Big Shirt since the 90s, then I saw the Cornell shirt by ELBE Textiles. Perfect for Tonia, recommended by Pam, looks super comfy.
I’m smitten by the Chandler Trousers by Untitled Thoughts - the blog is quite good as well. Linen shorts were a test-make last summer when my friend Laura was visiting - ready for a full-sized pair now. Bonus! There’s an expansion pack for a fitted back, in case you’re not into elastic back trousers. You can print these patterns via Patternsy.
Stepping off the merry-go-round of constant making to think about stuff. What do we keep? What do we make? Why does it matter?
