Organic Grey Ribbed Cotton Turtle Neck

Some projects are spectacular and glamorous, and some are practical and wearable, like this one. 

Another gorgeous fabric bought at Ecological Textiles, and another rendition of my "Universal T-shirt" pattern. This time, I took 1cm off all seams, and added a wide round band for the turtle neck. 
The result is perfect. I am embracing cotton for winter lately... I try to use only natural fibers, and for winter, we have wool or cotton. But wool is often itchy or too warm for interiors, whereas cotton can be really warm if it is woven in a dense manner, like in ribbed cotton, sweatshirt or thick interlock. They are warm but breathable and really sweet to the skin. 
And if it is colder, we can add layers!
