When I got home from a week of work yesterday I had the crafty urge. Unfortunately a week of work does a number on my tendonitis so knitting isn’t really a great idea. Sewing then.
I’ve been itching to make Kirsten Kimono Tee from Maria Denmark. It’s an easy, wearable top and (truth be told) I’d bought a few yards of knit fabric in anticipation of this project last week before leaving for work. There are only two pattern pieces and I sewed all the seams by serger and twin needled the hems. One hour max is the work time on this one.
I want to make a few tweaks to the fit of the top when I make it again (tomorrow!). It’s a bit too loose in places and flares out at the hip a smidge. So tweak tweak tweak. I should have a few opportunities to test the fit since I bought about 3 different knits with this top in mind. I hope you don’t get bored looking at them.
Like looking. Won’t get bored. I bet work is a nightmare on your tendonitis.
Looks great! I like the pattern on the shirt!
I love the quick, “instant gratification” projects!
Cute!
But why are you outside?! Too hot to be outside!
Whaddaya mean ‘finally’? It hasn’t been that long. Cute top!
Lovely print on the fabric. This tee looks great, I’m tempted to stock up on knit fabric now.
It looks great. Looking forward to see future versions as well!
One hour!? It’s darling!
