[Pre Blog Project]
This is a vintage pattern I found on Etsy. I used the leftovers from previous jumper projects and made this lovely striped top. I really like the pattern, I wear it a lot in the summer. Would definitely make again. The orange is alpaca, while the white is cotton. The orange on its own might be a bit itchy to wear against the skin, but here with the cotton I don't really don't feel it. Although alpaca is so soft anyway, maybe it would be fine if it was 100% alpaca.

Hi there I'm Charlotte from London and I am a Millennial hobbiest. By that I mean I love making things, for both the process and the outcomes. On this blog I talk about all the things I'm working on and learning each week. On some projects I will go into a bit more detail on what I did and my experience through it.
Some facts about me:
- I am not a perfectionist, preferring to complete something than to attempt to make something flawless.
- I am in a constant cycle of building up inspiration, executing the ideas, then winding down to reflect and regenerate.
- I am interested in almost anything that can be made from scratch using nature / natural materials.
