Clothing

          Right now this page will have more things, such as tips on how to modify existing clothes, or how to make clothes from scratch. For now, though here's pictures and a little description on what I did to modify or make the clothing, most recent will be at the top.

These "wolf pants" were ones I made from scratch. I bought a pattern, McCall's 2360, "Unisex loose fitting wide leg pants" and some really cute printed fabric of wolves running. Hopefully people won't mistake these for pajama pants. Since the pattern is not a pajama pant pattern. Although this picture is before I hemmed the bottoms, added the button at the top (that's why I'm wearing the belt), and added the pockets, they have rather large cargo pockets and belt loops, and a front fly. If only I got the printed fabric to line up seamlessly, that would've been sweet. Since I haven't added the buttons yet, I'm going to try to find wolf's face buttons for the top button and the cargo pocket buttons. :3

These pants were existing pants that I had modified. They were originally beige pants that I got off the discount rack somewhere. After wearing them to death, they almost got thrown out because I didn't like the color, I got green paint all over them, bleach stains on them, and they didn't quite fit anymore. Until one day when I was dying another fabric I decided to toss these pants in the leftover dye. I had used a fork to tightly swirl them on the knees and the butt of the pants and rubber-banded them together as tightly as I could possibly hold. I was delighted that the dye resisted the reflective piping, and even more delighted that they looked awesome in their new color (green paint and bleach stains and all!). I still had to solve the problem of them not quite fitting anymore. So I cut them down the side, and tore the rest of the seam out, I cut a piece of black faux fur to fit, and I sewed them together! They have quickly became my favorite pants. All repairs to the pants have been made using black yarn stitching (not shown).

These were the first pants that I had ever modified, you can tell that they are very worn and loved. These were originally standard black corduroy pants that were too small for me, which my friend and I had cut down the side and then torn the rest of the seam out. We cut a large piece of red faux fur out and sewed it in between the seam we had taken apart. They have had numerous repairs, all using either black or red yarn.
