Yes, it's another one (sigh). The Coco sewing pattern bien sûr, this time I made the top version with funnel neck and small patch pockets with stripes in a contrasting direction.
I'd been dreaming and scheming about creating a striped funnel neck top since seeing this Boden top and, if you follow me on Instagram (I'm on Instagram!), you'll know I started this top quite a while ago. A "while ago" in Coco terms, that is, it's usually a one-sitting make. Unfortunately over the last few weeks I've been recovering from what was supposed to be minor surgery on my foot but turned into a rather grizzly saga - I'll spare you the gory details in case you're eating your lunch - and it got worse over the last couple of weeks so I couldn't even sit up straight, let alone sew. Luckily it's starting to heal now so I can at least sit at my sewing table (and stand on one foot for these pictures) - hooray!

Now I'm dreaming of a sleeveless version like Audrey's. Mmm... I promise I'll make something different soon though!
What's on your sewing table, please?
