RE: A sweater with special flair: Fibremood Paola

in NeedleWorkMonday3 years ago

I love the first top - the fabric and the shape. Are you wearing it with the too wide jeans? They look just right, not too wide at all 😍.

The second top is cute, but hmm, not sure about all the fluff, lovely colour, though!

I was also drawn to the rough woven optic of the white/pink fabric. I would have loved to buy a little more, but the shop does not sell it regularly (only in the scrap box... very strange, I think they intentionally buy scraps to sell them cheap)
To be honest the purple one is my favourite: sooooo fluffy but also very lightweight and warm. I feel like a huge toy animal in it 😆 I know its a strange fabric choice, but must admit I am pondering to buy another color in this quality.
And yes, these are the too wide jeans worn with a belt. I still want to take them in a bit at the waist, so that they do not drop down when I wear them without a belt :-DDD
But the dream of sewing pants is revived…

Is the fluffy one a chenille? I used to have a chenille sweater and it was a favorite but eventually the fluff wore off and I was left with a threadbare sweater.

Uhhhhh I have no idea. It has the same "feel" like a microfibre cleaning cloth, so I guess its synthetic fibre, but which one, no clue. Perhaps I should add this book as a ko-fi goal - not that anybody acknowledged my ok-fi so far 🤣😱

Oh okay, yeah, that does sound nice and fluffy. :)

I wish I could contribute to all my creative friends' ko-fis and Patreons, but as it is I need patrons to live, lol. Maybe one day I'll win the lotto...

You should totally put the book as a goal though! :)
