Yay it’s finally done 🎉 the Audrey Hepburn inspired striped sweater I knit. It’s one million degrees in New York but I cranked the AC for a minute so I could wear it and show you. Sneak peek 👀 I’m close to done with the sweater inspired by Audrey Hepburn that I’ve been making. If you saw my earlier stories and reel, I have been knitting it using the #bellishapp and it’s probably the fastest sweater I’ve ever made. I can’t wait to show you how it ends up! Last vacation pictures, because I love all of these things: 1) swirly dresses 2) this man 3) couple selfies and 4) Portland, Maine I finally got to wear my thrifted Esther Williams one piece swimsuit, which is a vintage reproduction. And …yeah I’m never wearing modern looking swimsuits again? It’s so cute, and very flattering. Here are my silly pin-up pose attempts. Yay I finished my Mangrove Tee just in time for our little Maine vacation! I’m OBSESSED with it. I have worn it pretty much every day since I finished it. It fits so well, I just love everything about it. I think I need to make 5 more. I made a video! I tell you all about the #jazzagelawnparty and my 1920s handmade dress. I’ve been so looking forward to try this yarn from @knit_picks @wecrochetofficial it’s 30% silk and 70% merino wool so yes, it feels as soft as it sounds. I’m so ready to get to knitting with it 😍 can you guess what I’m making? 👀 I finally have some progress on my #mangrovetee this foliage stitch is taking forever but it’s worth it. Racing to finish this before the summer ends! There’s a reason why undergarments are called foundation garments. People always poo-poo on 1920s fashion because it’s “boxy” and “unflattering” but it’s all about the foundations. I made my own undergarments, so they would flatten my chest and I could better wear the dropped waist style and the dress wouldn’t be see through. And somehow making those was almost more work than the actual dress. But absolutely worth it.
