Second half of May and the things I wore. I clearly did not have a good handle on the weather as it seems to fluctuate between heart of winter and height of summer.

So the pledge was:
And I have done all those things. I also wore a lot of pants, because I just love pants. I did actually finish the grey sweater (for a preview see May 28). I’m still writing that one up when I can find the motivation.
Things I’ve learnt:
- There are four dresses that I’ve refused to wear even if the weather was appropriate. I may need to look into giving those a new home.
- The green pants from May 21 and the red dungarees from May 30 are too tight in the back. They both occupy niches in my wardrobe and need to be replaced with better fitting items.
- I don’t wear short sleeved self-knit tops, ever. So maybe also find a new home for those?
- The three piece suit is not something I want to gravitate to, this is a little sad.
- Wearing jackets in general seems to be out, although I did try multiple times to find a combination for a purple jacket thing.
- How to take over 30 pictures in roughly the same pose every time.
- I have enough me-made clothes to survive a whole month without repeats; and I still own and wear bought clothing.. Perhaps I have too many clothes? Ah well, it still fits in my house, so lets not worry too much about it.
Complete tally of me-mades in May:
Tops: 15

Dresses: 11 (1 repeat)
Pant/playsuits: 4

I say, mission accomplished!
