No pattern, just found a bunch of sock yarn in a thriftshop and liked the colors enough to make a garment for myself.

So I've been itching to cut up some old jersey and thermal shirts that just weren't right--too short, too boxy, too whatever. And I've been admiring the amazing work of Secret Lentil and other talented contributors to the Deconstructed/Reconstructed Clothing Flickr Group. So I finally gave it a try. This is made from two shirts and some jersey pajama pants that lost their elastic. The pieces are handsewn together with crochet thread, not worrying too much about color or shape, experimenting with the stitch, just trying to see how I want to do this. Definitely some things I'll do differently the next time, but there will be a next time, because this was fun, it wasn't difficult, and it puts some unworn clothing back into circulation.
