Description

Show the earth a bit of love with a RELoved apron. Made from a men’s Medium 52% linen 48% cotton green stripe casual shirt, this would be a great fit for a size 10-14. This apron is a great cover up for all your housework, gardening, painting and baking needs. Measures approx. 75cm from top to bottom at the front. The cross-over straps made from the shirt front are a comfy fit and the handy pocket is made from the shirt sleeves – nothing is wasted. Please remember that these aprons are re-loved and may have a few blemishes. On the plus side, they are super cute, are helping the environment and charities and are not likely to shrink. Keep a look out for the PDF pattern coming soon!

I have always had a thing for the lovely Japanese cross –over aprons but couldn’t justify the cost of the linen to make one for myself. Being on a journey of becoming more environmentally aware, I decided to have a go at making one out of an old men’s shirt. My pattern has taken a bit of tweaking but I am very happy with the end result. I would like to introduce you to my Re-loved aprons. All my Re-loved aprons are made from either 100% cotton, 100% linen or linen/cotton blend shirts from local charity shops which are all checked and given a good wash before use. Environmentally friendly and helping charity = double brownie points!
