So, I finished these socks.
And started working on some dishcloths which has been a nice change of pace. I'm still trying to use up my stash instead of buying yarn and I have plenty of cotton yarn to draw from.
These round dish cloths were so fun. I used up all of my multicolored cotton yarn remnants making them.
I was inspired by Sonya Philip so I made some capri pants using McCall's 5862.
I added 4 inches to the pattern width by slashing and spreading and they may be a bit big but I'm still pretty happy with them. Especially the 2 black pair. The are great for work.
I needed some more work tops so I took the two Star Wars dresses that I made from Simplicity 1630.
And cut them down to top length. At first I was super annoyed because I thought I cut them too short but I'm wearing the Darth Vader top today and it works perfectly with my black capris and black cardigan.
I got bored with dishcloths so I started some more vanilla socks. Not sure about this yarn colorway.
I'm hoping to make some more summer tops in the next few weeks. I bought some cool fabric on sale so I think I'll be cutting into it soon. After that I want to start thinking about fall and winter stuff. My sewing goal is to have enough me made stuff to participate in #MeMadeMay in the spring :)
