Day 93 of #tracywearswool, and the final countdown week. Yeehaa!
It seems to be that the t-shirt over the dress has become my uniform of sorts. Kinda looks like a skirt. And shortens it a bit. I feel like it is more efficient, in a way, not so much fabric as wearing it loose. And… super comfortable.
I have a confession to make. I found another swing dress — 100% cotton– that I have been wearing with cotton leggings at a nightgown. Because I can jump out of bed and lounge around in it until I take my shower and get dressed in my challenge dress. Eventually, I might just get another Rowena for sleeping!
Down to the bottom ribbing of Sweater #4: Love Note for Sarah — It’s part of my 12 sweaters in 2021 challenge. I just have to pick up and knit the sleeves, and put in a neck ribbing — the gold yarn is a provisional cast on and will go away.
For those of you new to this blog …I am involved in a 100-Day Challenge, put on by Wool& — Same dress. 100 days. (And yes, you can wash it!) Part of my reasons for deciding to do this was to simplify my life, especially with my lifestyle.
What’s in store today:
Just getting things wrapped up before I head to the coast! I made a little movie with my photos today:
I think this shirt was a sample — it just has the number 7 written in the neckline in sharpie. But I picked it up at a thrift store, and love it. A slightly heavier fabric than most of my tees, but lots of stretch to it.
Bare legs, because I can. I used to be self-conscious of my legs — they have always been super muscular, and I have prominent knots on my knee. But now, I am embracing the ME, knobby knees and all. HA!
Wool socks, and my Keen Kaci Slides.
Ready to take on the day.
Thanks for joining me on day 93 of #tracywearswool.
Stay tuned for the next 7 days!
Be well, and get out there and enjoy yourself.
