I did not cast on any new knitting today, but I did sew myself a new dress.

Pattern is Raglan Dress by The Avid Seamstress. Fabric is Kaufman Manchester Yarn Dyed Shirting in Royal. I made this dress for $25. I’m not known for my frugality, but I’m pleased with that. And it has pockets!

This is my favorite pattern to sew right now. I think I’ll sew some summer PJs next, and finish some linen shorts that I cut out a couple of years ago.
Love it, and it looks great on you! It looks pretty as it is, but I also can’t help wondering how some dainty embroidery would look on it. 🙂

Happy Mother’s Day! Harald and Henry are coming for a visit. Freya is here. This dress has a zipper up the back so not sure I would want to sleep in it. It would be great if we were neighbors! I hope you have a great day. Love you!
