I was cutting out a shirt for my Beloved when I realized that there was a good measure of fabric leftover. I cut apart a shirt of his to make this pattern so I have never had definite lengths to purchase. Then there is the bit of whether he wants long sleeves or short. Every shirt is different!
In this case, there was enough leftover to make myself a short chemise. I wear them under my dresses, especially when I am wearing leggings. I just want the warmth.
Because this cotton is so fine, it has some slip to it. I will probably be able to wear it with stockings as well. The other crazy bit I like, is that because the cotton is so fine, it packs up very small. It is a great chemise/slip to throw in a bag when I am traveling. Like going to the beach with friends or off to camping. Camping is why I put tags in all my clothes now. An easy way to find the back in the dark or in a crowded tent!
I am still moving slowly but I hope I will be moving more quickly soon. Now, if yarn would arrive. I am waiting impatiently for yarn to try a new shawl pattern!
