Thanks Pretty Grievances for hosting Jungle January.
My safari suit is now at the cleaners and I will move onto using lace fabrics. Is anyone hosting a month of lace sewing? Although I’ve just cut out a new Minoru using PUL fabric because we’ve had the wildest summer safari weather.
And I now have a jungle wrap. No changes to this wrap pattern since I first made it up in the maroon version. The navy and brown versions are worn a lot to work because of the air con. This jungle net fabric from the Spotlight clearance table.
It’s been an amazing safari through my fabric stash. What does it say about your personality when you have so much animal print in it but don’t make it up? Yes, I’ve been too chicken to try incorporating animal prints but now I can wear it without making the wrong statement.
Love this version of the wrap and with the mesh it can be worn many more ways without the bulk.

I love this cardi. Looks great in animal. I looked at your other versions of the cardi and the animal on is my fave. Very nice indeed.

I never would have thought to make a wrap cardi out of net. What a brilliant idea! You must have more animal print that anyone else. Love it.

I think Marie of A Stitching Odyssey was doing a lace series with guest posts, is that close enough?
Your new wrap top looks so practical for a jungle garment!

What a great idea to use mesh ! You see I have no creativity in this way but that would be a lovely lightweight topper for summer. I bought some mesh and the girl was really generous and sold me everything left on the roll for the price of what I just wanted ( does that make sense ) and I had no idea what to do with it all – It is almost gone now after three tops but I wish I had thought of this !
