Me Made May — not exactly
June 12, 2016: I have tried to participate in Me Made May (wearing my creations every day of the month) since I've had enough garments to do so. But this May I spent about half my days in running clothes while traveling to Wichita to race and on vacation. The rest of my days were in my makes, including a couple in these photos.

I really like this pattern and fabric combination. And this is one of those rare times making my own cost less than buying it. It's comparable to Icebreaker, which has listed a similar skirt for $80 to $90 and dress for about $150. I spent less than $20 on supplies for this skirt. It's been a while since I made the merino dress — https://winnelspot.smugmug.com/Old-albums/Lovely-merino-and-a-semiformal/i-FkBZxTf —, but I'd guess that cost me about $50 to $60.
I'm sure I'll make more of this skirt at some point. It's comfortable, and the pockets work best of any knit skirt I have.
