I dunno why I waited so many months before sewing up some of these patterns, but now that it's gift-making time, it's so on. I thought the Greenpoint cardigan was fast, but this one was record-breakingly quick.
I made these guys for baby Anna. I used the same combo of small and large green-striped fabric that I used for my Recess Raglan a few months ago (vintage knit from Martha and one of Tim's old t-shirts), barely eking out a 12-month size from the fabric scraps I had left over. I figure since Anna has the McCarthy coloring so much more than perma-tan sister Zoe she can rock the kelly green like a natural. Also: paired with red, they're Christmas pants, with green or orange, they're St. Patty's Day pantalones.
My second foray into homemade harem pants was equally as awesome as my first, if not more since this is a pattern for knit fabric, making it super quick to whip up on the serger. Two thumbs up for quick and cute! I kinda wish I had a pair for myself.
