Old and New

Something old:





I made this dress back in January for a ball we go to every year. It is Nora from Burdastyle. I think I made size 36 but I can't remember really. What you can't see is the skirt , I made it in black. I like the colour of the outer dress a lot! Sadly I can wear evening dresses only once year.

Something new:



This is the aforementioned Kirigami. I have to do about 4" more on the body. The sleeves are 7/8 at the moment but I think I will do them a full length as the sweater is rather warm and then my lower arms will be cold and then I probably won't wear it. The 7/8 are really cute but then you need to use lighter yarn than suggested (maybe sport rather than aran).

Today was the first "real" day at school and I feel tired. The first day is always the worst and I hope it will be better tomorrow. I think I have nice students this year which is a relief!
