Pink blossom tee

 Lovely fabric, bought from the Monday Market Man in Chesterfield pre Covid.

using my altered TNT pattern New Look 6735

KonMari 1.3 knit tops and tees

Folded as per the method these seem to take up less space which will allow me to add in some cooler weather items currently up in the loft.
Casual tops

And smarter tops which can be worn with work clothes.

I got rid of 17 tops and have 2 for alterations. (The discard pile).
Interestingly the discard pile included some duplicates all bought at the same time as each other, 3 tee shirts bought for going on holiday but not in colours I really loved and 3 tops for work which were made of quite thick polyester and were always too hot to wear in comfort (though great for packing for trips).
I need to learn from that!

So feeling pleased about that. There is space in the drawers so I'll be able to add the cool weather tops which are currently stored up in the loft.

Interesting knit top styles

I really like the quality knit tops in the mid/high end RTW stores, and am able to sometimes pick up viscose knits (rayon) which I could use in the same sorts of styles. I have a serger and a coverhem machine, and yet I seem to not have access to the same range of interesting knit top patterns as the RTW designs. Sadly I am not clever enough to work out how to emulate these designs myself.

I wear a lot of the knit tops I make, and are a way of cheering up my frankly boring suits so I can see its worth while getting some more interesting top patterns. I probably do need a gallop though my existing large pattern stash to see what I can find.

Here are some examples of the sort of thing I mean.
