Not as late as the Great Prophet Zarquon – but a little close to the wire for my liking. Here we have not one but two makes to round off my Vintage Pledge year. The first is a pattern re-visit:
In something indestructible in the way that only a mystery-man-made can be.
I look at these photos and marvel that it was ever mild enough to venture out of the house in short sleeves.
The second thing is a new-to-the-blog pattern:
In a weird, thick knit roll end.
Cor, look at my lush rhubarb! Hope that it comes up like that next year…
I like how this pattern allows stripe play. I do not like the length of the sleeves, I might tinker with them in the new year. I might also tinker with the collar, because despite reigning in the pattern’s exuberance at the collar prep. stage:
That collar is still a bit of a clunky-chunky beast.
So how did your Vintage Pledge go? The makes that made it to my blog this year were the two tops above, plus
Thanks to Kestrel Makes and A Stitching Odyssey for their Pledge enabling! Right, I’m off to visit the other pledgers on Pinterest, see you there?!

Love those tops. And, like you, thoroughly enjoyed participating in and looking at all the makes for the Vintage Pledge. Happy New year and in sewing too!
