The pattern was sort of confusing to use because all the instructions were in Dutch. The main parts were easy, because I could figure out the construction from the pictures. I just really, really struggled with the ribbing lengths. At least now I know the lengths for the next time I make it!
My one regret on this romper is that it looks like pajamas. I was hoping the elbow and knee patches would help, but they don't do much. Maybe Henry can just wear a brown cardigan whenever he wears it. Any tips for "un-pajam-izing" this romper?
I let had him wear his fox hat again. Sorry, you have to see it again, but I love it so much! I won't get tired of it anytime soon!


















To take away the PJ look maybe give it a brown waist belt sewn into the fabric.
ReplyDeleteMaybe a kangaroo front pocket like a sweatshirt has? I really like it though. What a handsome little dude! I love the hand stamped fabric.
ReplyDeleteGreat Job Momma!

I'm thinking a faux button placket in brown might make it look less like pajamas. I love the print though!
ReplyDeleteI think the ribbing on the ankles is giving it that feel. Maybe a straight hem?
ReplyDeleteOh, and cute! I love the fox print, especially the gray /silver tip on the tails.
ReplyDeleteI like the idea of adding a kangaroo pocket and a straight hem....but we're only young once and when you're that cute who says you can't wear pj's!! :)
ReplyDeleteVery cute. I love the fox print and the hat. He looks absolutely adorable!
ReplyDeletelook at all those little foxes - just too cute, great job!
ReplyDeleteI love this! The fox stamping look fantastic and the knee and elbow patches are so cute. I think maybe a hood and a raglan sleeve would make it less pyjama-y but it's fine as it is for a toddler to wear out. Good luck.
ReplyDeleteThat fox stamping is just amazing! I love it! Such a cute outfit!
ReplyDeleteCute!
ReplyDeleteMaybe adding some kind of pockets...back pockets, kangaroo pocket?
Very well done.
