Scraps and fabric ends have been raided to add a few more casual pieces to my wardrobe. The Vali top is in a 220 gsm ramie, the last bit leftover from my time in Vietnam. The neckline, ties and cuff are bound in an Indian block print cotton . I didn’t have enough ramie, and the binding smoothed over some of the thickness from using a heavy fabric for a top. I have also sized up to make for an easier post-swim thing to throw on. The pants are based on the Terra Pant pattern with a few tweaks to the fit and some accommodations due to using three pairs of old jeans. I’m slowly working towards a guide on best-practice methods to reconstruct old jeans into new jeans. My favourite thing about jeans is the wash. Being able to DIY and working with preexisting fade is very gratifying.
