Day of Making

I made a few things today.

This is a sweater I've been working on for a week or so. I started the first sleeve today. It's so weird knitting a sleeve. It felt like I was building a disembodied arm.

Here's the first skirt from my stash. I got the cotton print at Joanns, the orange trim was from Ikea. It only took 30 minutes! The selvage edge saves the time of sewing a hem; the waist is just elastic. I was inspired by the instructions on this site.

Then for dinner we had boxed mac and cheese with hot dogs. Because I'm awesome like that.
