why did i wait so long to make wool pajamas?! so soft, so cute and so warm!
i used peekaboo pattern's alex and anna winter pajama pattern 2T.
I like everything about the fit and sewing it was easy, except i kind of botched the neckline. it's a very thin neckband and i was going a bit too fast with the serger, but it's all good.
i used interlock wool from nature's fabric. it's natural color organic merino wool. so delightful! i used light grey thread from my serger so unfortunately the seams show more than i would like, lesson learned.
I wash them with sheepish grins wool wash soap and hang them to dry. i also tried the handwash cycle on my washing machine after a large spill of hot cocoa down the front of himself and that worked well. i didn't notice any fabric shrinking. the next pair will be in this navy wool!
also, note to self, do not let almost 2 year old play outside in wool longies right before wanting to photograph. oh well, if i knew how to hashtag, it'd be #reallife.
