Camp Workroom Social PJs!

Published by kylachristine

Yay! Here they are, finally :) I made these for the PJ Party at Camp Workroom Social over two months ago… then took pictures when I got back from camp and I’m finally getting around to posting them now! I also still have Halloween Costumes to post… maybe before the end of the year! ;) Sad story about that mug though… I brought it to work a couple of weeks ago and it disappeared. No one has seen it. Just gone. :( So these, of course, are the Carolyn Pajamas from Closet Case Files. I had no choice but to make my own piping ;) For that I used leftover zebra print cotton from my stash (also used here), and I found some simple little black vintage buttons to use from my stash as well. If I remember correctly, I made a straight size 6, just added 3 inches to the length of the pants. I’ve since worn then constantly and washed them a bunch, so they’ve shrunk even more and are a bit too …

It gave me a great idea for a future sewing project, though… :) The tulip sleeves are fun. Brixon Ivy Atticus Pointelle Knit Sweater | $58 | Status: Going back The fit was a little off for me. The color is great for Spring, though! Mystree Esperanza Open Stitch Cardigan | $68 | Status: Going back I love love how long the sleeves are.

Little things for the little ones

My little cousins keep multiplying! :) And another one’s due in May. Soooo… I’ve been a little busy… Newborn hat (made using this tutorial); the main fabric is from my grandma stash; the blue flower fabric is from a tank top (SP24) And here she is – the sweet little thing: Crochet baby sandals (made using this adorable pattern) and colors quiet book (see my other post on that here) Little lumberjack hat (made using this tutorial… used flannel instead of the fleece that she used; but I think it worked out great… and it was really simple and quick to make, which is always a plus!) (SP25) Knit summer shirt (made using this pattern and yarn leftover from a pillow I made a while back) Comfy knit dress (made using this awesome tutorial and fabric from my grandma stash) (SP26) I hope everything fits! Every time I see them it’s like they are another year or two older (usually because they are!) :(… so I really have no idea how big they’ve gotten other …
