Lilac Window

During nap time I made myself some purple pants. I dyed the fabric yesterday – from an original baby blue colour. I used cheap dye that was supposed to be brown. I am not too fussy about colors and so I realize its all an experiment. Luckily I love purple.

So this is really the easiest pair of pants to make with a draw string waist. I used my jeans as a pattern. The thing I love about them is that they are boiled wool, and very warm. I know you think I am crazy to be making these in spring, but I actually made them for camping. I am always cold camping – no matter what the weather is like, and I tell you, pulling these on after swimming in a lake, or in the evening while roasting marshmallows, will feel heavenly.

We are going camping May long weekend with friends. I am so excited to get out of the city!
