what are you sewing now 〜Madeline Dress made with Indian Cotton from Merchant & Mills〜
November 30, 2022
Today we would like to introduce the Madeline Dress made by our staff, Mei. This is the new work of knot released at the beginning of this month!
A dress that gently spreads toward the hem with tucks on the shoulders. Easy to make with few parts.
Mei shortened the hem by 20cm and the sleeves by 10cm to enjoy a layered style with a long skirt. It gives a light impression.
It seems that I tried to put a thin ribbon on the back waist. You can enjoy changing the silhouette by tying it loosely or tightly.
To make the ribbon, simply cut the excess fabric into long strips, fold it in four to the desired width, and sew it to the back waist.
It is recommended that the length of the ribbon be at least 50 cm so that you can tie it in various ways. If you want to turn it forward to mark your waist, prepare a longer ribbon. (My waist size +40cm)
The fabric used is Indian Cotton Lean Stripe from Merchant & Mills.
It is a cloth made with traditional techniques in Jaipur, India. The hand block print has subtle fluctuations in the stripes and is very cute!
It seems that the smell of the dye is strong because it is indigo dyed, but other than that, it is an excellent cloth that is easy to sew and can be ironed in one shot.
The fabric is thin, but the density is high, so it doesn't let the wind through. It seems that you will feel warm just by wearing one piece.
In the winter, we tend to wear thick clothes and our coordination tends to be sluggish, but when you put this dress on in such a case, you can create a light style with a good overall balance!
I haven't attached the button yet. Can I put it on if I feel like it? ?
Finally, a message from Mei.
In the original pattern, the pocket seam allowance is only sewn with a zigzag sewing machine, but if you want to clean it up, try sewing a bag.

what are you knitting now? - Tokyo store version
October 21, 2022
Introducing the staff's knitting, this time it's a Florence Tank knitted by Nao from the Tokyo store.
Designer Sari Nordlund wears it on bare skin and has a summery atmosphere, but Nao said he wanted to knit it over a dress. It's a full lace pattern, but if you knit it with Woolfolk Stra , it's just the right amount of simplicity and it's very stylish! If you match it with pants and a T-shirt, it will add a little sweetness to your usual casual look.
It seems that it was a little difficult to reduce the stitches of the lace, but other than that, Stra was a very good thread that knitted smoothly and the stitches were even. The greenish S5 color with deep green antique buttons is another Nao-like touch.
Best for this season. Amirisu also sells the Florence Tank kit , so please check it out at the online shop.

The Factory Top made with nani IRO Textile
August 18, 2022
Popular pattern from Merchant and Mills, The Factory .
Originally it was a dress, but a little while ago, a pattern arranged for a top appeared. The handsome collar is just as it is, and it seems to expand the range of wearing.
Nakanaga, who loves open-collared shirts, fell in love at first sight! I made two of these last weekend.
The fabric used is nani IRO Textile's thin linen (pattern: rakuen) for the floral pattern , and nani IRO Textile's linen gauze (pattern: Air Time) for the other.
Both are light and soft, perfect for summer.
It's well ventilated, "It's really cool and the best!" Just wearing the floral pattern will make you feel like you are traveling to a southern island, and the gentle pattern that looks like a light watercolor painting will be very comfortable to wear!
The fact that it can be worn over the head and does not have buttons is also a recommended point. You don't have to make buttons or stop it, so it's a lot easier.
There is nothing particularly difficult, but you need to be a little careful when handling thin and rough fabrics like gauze.
Since it frays easily, Mr. Nakanaga changed the stitch width of the sewing machine from the standard 2.5mm to 2mm.
If you use a zigzag sewing machine, the fabric will inevitably stretch and the end paper will flutter.
Here are the other changes.
- Removed breast pocket
- Length shortened by 6cm
・The depth of the opening of the collar has been slightly shallowed (Mr. Nakanaga made a size 16, but he said it was a size 10)
Like this, the hem slit is in the front.
Even if you try making it with a slightly thicker fabric, it will keep its shape and look cute!
To make it, you need to buy the pattern from The Factory Dress plus the PDF pattern for arrangement. In the additional PDF, there is a paper pattern for the body and how to finish the hem.
If you can draw your own pattern, you may be able to do it with the information on the Merchant and Mills blog without buying an additional PDF.
Please take a look.
