You know it’s May when all of a sudden blog posts pop up all over the place filled with wardrobe posts featuring self-made garments.
So, apologies if you’re already sick of Me-Made-May blog posts, but here’s my first one for this May. (Feel free to ignore it and come back tomorrow if you want. 😉 )

5th May also included a you made Drake of course! 😉
True! A handy me-made accessory for every day. 😉
Hats off to you, Kat! I totally haven’t got round to doing it this year. And there was a minor concern about too many repeats from last year! I love all your makes and how lucky to have an amazing knitting mum! The loveliest me-made accessory of course is the one sitting on your hip! xxx
Aww, thank you! 🙂
I must admit, I am somewhat concerned about boring everyone with these posts. Major wardrobe crisis going on at the moment, argh!!! Need to make more things, super-fast!!!
I wish I had mum-made-cardigans. She tells me adults cardigans are much too boring to sew and she’ll stick to baby knitting, thank you very much
Haha yeah my mum spends most of her time doing baby knitting as well, but occasionally I get lucky. Especially if I buy the wool and choose an interesting/semi-complicated pattern. 😉
Hi Kat, thanks for entering my giveaway. You’ve got a really interesting blog, I have just started following you. Looking forward to reading through your posts once it dies down over at my place.
Aww, thanks Leanne! 🙂
