Things I am going to make this winter

- Two full, wool skirts, in red and in black, probably to this pattern or one like it.
- A knitted snood in grey, that I can wear as a scarf or pull over my head to keep my ears warm.
- A grey or dark blue pinafore dress.
- An A-line black wool skirt with a waistband.
- A wool smock dress in green or mustard or bright blue, to cheer up my very grey wardrobe.
- A plain red jersey dress. Empire line. Sort of swingy. Maybe this pattern, but without the rolled hem.
- A smart dress with the beautiful fine black wool challis I have.
- A really chic 1940s style hat.

I'm also going to try and finish the grey wool coat I started on (before realising I was using the worst pattern in the world). I think I can salvage it, and the material is beautiful: lovely nubbly grey boiled wool. I must make a coat this year. I am fed up with not having a decent smart everyday coat.
