First Sweatsuit

As a little kid, I lived in sweatsuits. No frilly dresses and definitely no jeans, just comfy cozy sweatshirts and sweatpants for me. It seemed important that I make 5 his very first sweatsuit!
Picture
I made the top with plenty of room to grow and the pants to fit perfectly right now. Not exactly intentionally...
He seems to like it, and it keeps him warm in our cold house, so I really like it.
Picture
The pants are sweatshirt sleeves with waistband ribbing for the waistband. The top is pieced together from scraps leftover from my sweatshirt dress.

The shirt is symmetrical, but I chose this to be the front because it's kind of Star Trek-y. 5 to the bridge! Warp speed!

The back is plenty cool too though. Cooler than any of the sweatsuits I wore as a kid. Anyone who says boys' clothes are boring has no imagination!

Excellent! He looks super cozy - really cold house was one of the main reasons you wore sweatsuits all the time,too. You put on plenty of interesting layers of other items of apparel so that they weren't really so boring.(Including a 1/2 mask........ready for the paparazzi)

sweet sweat suit. i think the headband for 5 was a great idea. iris is 4 1/2 and still chooses the soft pants over the button-snap-zipper variety. smart cozy kids.
