Another boat shirt, with a side of shorts and pants

Kristi was sweet enough to share some of this darling yellow sailboat knit with me, since I'm on a boat theme. I paired it with navy interlock and 100% cotton navy twill (yum!). I did pants and shorts to go with, since the weather should be turning soon. I thought it would look really cute with pale yellow socks and his baby blue boat robeez for going out to dinner last night, but 1) he got dirty and had to be changed before evening, and 2) we didn't end up going out, lol.

Cute outfit, but I must admit the empty standing up pants are shorts look creepy to me. LOL!! Is that the NC one hour bodyshirt pattern? I really like it.

Love it, I have that fabric too, but I think it will have to be longsleeves for up here though. (and maybe those ottobre footie pants, I love those things.. He's almost outgrown the first batch, I need to start on the second batch soon!) I have to thank you though, I never thought to skip the middle snap before I saw one of your body suits. I use the hammer in snaps so it saves me one-third of a headache.

Thank you! It's KS2656, I think. Something with those numbers in it. There's also pants, bib, hat, booties, etc. in the pattern. I really like this shirt, I've made at least half a dozen of them. (And I need to do a turq one and a blue one, and them I need to STOP!)

Oh, and yes, color me lazy. Why use 3 snaps when 2 will do, lol. I tell Paul I'm being economical, too.

Niri, I remembered someone else doing the standing shorts thing and people being freaked by it, too, so you're not alone. I IRONED them, lol, so I wanted to show off how crisp they were.

I like them. Cute, although a little creepy at the same time.

Looks great! Did you have to starch the pants to get them to stand like that? Not that I'd ever try, lol. The iron and I are NOT friends...

Well I like the stand up pants. LOL
Darling outfit. Maybe if you wash it today, change him last minute, then you can go out to dinner.
