October colors are burnt orange, brown and oatmeal, and with one Sunday left to go in the month, I finished the second top for our 'burnt orange' color. This is not something I would ever have chosen, had it not been for our choir colors, but I guess it worked; I got several compliments on it today.
It's my second go at Simplicity 3624; this time in a very thin and drapey rayon/lycra jersey. I used the long sleeves this time; I think they worked better for me than the weird cap sleeves I used the first go-round, for all that these turned out to be full-length instead of the 7/8 length shown on the pattern. It's over the brown Jalie 965 tank, both for color and for, um, church suitability. Actually, church or not, I doubt I'd wear this without something under it...it's pretty low and wide.
Lee bootcuts this week...someday I WILL make myself a pair of jeans... ;-)
