New pattern alert 🚨 the Bloomie Shorts pattern is here 🎀 they’re a modern twist on a classic. I’ve been loving the look of bloomers but it’s not necessarily a type of garment I feel comfortable wearing so I decided to make my own version of shorts that have the beautiful details of bloomers without feeling so much like you’re wearing an undergarment.
Get to know the Bloomie Shorts:
🧸 Costum fit: choose between mid-rise and high-rise for the look you love.
🧸Comfortable and adjustable: featuring the elastic all throughout the design, these shorts offer an adjustable fit that you can costumize to your preference.
🧸 Sizes 00-30: waist 24”/61cm - 50”/127cm
hip 34”/86.5cm - 60”/152.5cm
🧸 Versatile style: dress them up with a short dress and let them peak out or keep it casual with your favourite tee.
Skill level: Intermediate - perfect for those who are ready to challenge themselves with a rewarding sewing project.

The #peachyundies pattern update is finally here!!
Where do I begin when telling what’s changed with the pattern… the only thing I kept was the original fit which is a French cut with cheeky coverage at the back. It’s a full redraft with an expanded size range that goes from 20.3”-52.3” (51.6 cm-133cm) waist.
And the instructions are a definite improvement. I’ve added tips on sewing with stretchy fabrics and elastics and speaking of elastic, with this pattern you learn how to accurately calculate how much elastic you need for the waist and leg openings based on the stretch percentage of the elastic you’ll be using.
Comment the word “pattern” if you want me to send you the link!
You can also find the pattern linked in my stories and bio.
As most of my patterns, it’s a pay what you want pattern so as always I’d like to thank to everyone who supports me by adding a price to the patterns, couldn’t do this without you 🫶🏻
It’s out!!
GET TO KNOW THE #IMECSTATICSOCKS
The I’m Ec(static) socks are a timeless house sock, knit cuff down, featuring a continuous cable design and a shadow wrap short row heel.
After the heel, the cables are knit only on the top of the sock while the sole is knit in plain stockinette for a more comfortable wearing experience.
I’m Ec(static) Socks are knit using a combination of sock yarn held with mohair to give it added coziness.
You can find more detail about the pattern on my store and on ravelry (find the link to my store on my bio and on my stories)
As per usual, it’s a pay what you want pattern so you can either get it for free or add a price to it. Guilt free but thank you so much to everyone who can and chooses to support my work because it’s literally how I pay my rent 🙏
A little update on what's been my thought process when it comes to the knit version of the Eva top pattern.
Nailed down the fit but I'm still playing around with the construction. It has to be a fun knit, not only a good fit!
Last time I did this was a couple of years ago and at the time my English style was throwing, not flicking.
I've been trying to learn a new style because even though I enjoy knitting continental sometimes it gets boring to do the same movement.
What's your knitting style?
I think I’ve finally hit the actual-real-final.psd version of this design! I’ve softened the under-bust line (it was a bit too high and pointy before) and made a big pivot on the cup construction.
I switched to a horizontal dart, which means you're adding fabric in rows rather than stitches. This keeps the width of the top consistent while giving the bust the room it needs, especially for sizes past a C cup.
I’ve seen a few questions about making your own version based on my process. Please, go for it! My approach to knitting is all about recreating the things i love. I don’t own the concept of an under-bust detail, and I’m just happy to inspire your own projects. Hope these photos help if you're trying to reverse engineer this design!
Ps: I can't stop listening to this song
Remember my last post where I shared that I was attempting to recreate my Eva top sewing pattern in a hand knit version? My second take is currently on the needles. I'm not entirely sure the neckline will remain like this but I'm happy with everything else about this design.
I filmed a vlog of my progress on the other version. Haven't posted yet because I'm waiting on approval but expect more content related to this design!!
If you've been following this zip up cardi journey you know that the amount of unraveling I did for this project was kinda ridiculous but I FINALLY arrived at a version I'm happy with. She's so beautiful and cozy.

Yarns used in the projects:
Stripped saddle shoulder cardigan
• Cone yarn (don't know the brand but it's a synthetic fiber that I don't love hence why using it in conjunction with another yarn that kinda hides it.
• @dropsdesign Brushed alpaca silk
I'm Ec(static) socks (pattern available in my store)
• also a yarn that I don't know the brand of but it's kinda like an angora but it's kinda fragile so I'm mixing it with a strand of brushed alpaca silk.
Basket weave cardigan
• @tricotsbrancal zimbro
• Drops brushed alpaca silk
Frankie project bag is a sewing pattern that's also available in my store!
