Wooly mammoth, Batman!

A.k.a the woolly shorts -project. Needed warm up gear for my rear. Ha Ha.

Seriously speaking, I did. Last year I had problems with my hip flexors. Even think I had a mild sprain on the right after doing grande battements. And o'boy are they always cramped so tight. Realised at somepoint that it could my hip flexor were not warm enough for the big movements. So tried doing some preclass warm ups for those. And it worked. But being a bit lazy an idea for warm up gear just kept haunting me.

So The Jämäballerinas (= leftover ballerinas) were made. Used up some stashed left over yarn for these. Hence the name.

They are nice and comfy. Warm too, but that was the idea, so...

Every Day Should Be a Tutu Day

Few years a go we decided to surprise our teacher with some more Ballet-y gear. It was the last class just before Christmas break. We wanted to have a tutu-day. So we all made a no sew tutu for the class.

lots of excitement and laughter in the air.

I also made a tutu for our teacher.
