Simplicity 2927 - black and grey
Sep 19th, 2008 by Claire
Here is incarnation number two of Simplicity 2927, this time in black and grey. This one’s for Claire, (no, not me!) who left me a comment when she saw the one I’d made for myself.
It’s made using 100% organic cotton, from Bishopston Trading. I couldn’t find any grey, so I dyed a piece myself. I used Dylon’s Antique Grey machine dye, over the unbleached cotton that I used for my own version. It came out really nicely!
We made a couple of small alterations from the original pattern - the length is slightly longer than the tunic version, and shorter than the dress. The sleeves are also an in-between length.
All that this one’s missing now is a big black button, to give it that finishing touch.
