Canada Post Shuts Down Urban Operations Nationwide

By -
It's now official, no mail is moving in Canada! All orders shipped via Lettermail (1-3 patterns) or Small Packet Air (4+ patterns shipped outside North America) are on hold until the conflict resolves. All 4+ pattern orders shipped to the US and 8+ patterns shipped outside North America are still being shipped via UPS.

Let's hope it won't last too long!

NOTE: If your order is already on its way, please be patient. If your order is currently on hold and you wish to cancel it to order from a local retailer (all retailers outside Canada receive their orders via UPS), please let us know.

I would normally go with size T, but I will use S for this project because:

Today's hack will add ease I will use a knit that stretches across the grain

New Collection - The Éléonore Pull-On Jeans

The Surrender By now, you probably know that my daughter Éléonore is a little girl who knows what she wants. When it comes to pants, here is what a pair of pants need to have to get her approval:
comfy low rise waistband (the belly button is off limits!)no buttons (not quick enough!)slim leg (but not too tight!)stretch woven (non-stretch denim is not comfortable enough, she wants her knits for leggings only and she claims lightweight non-stretch woven fabrics are "shorts fabrics") Her requests did make sense (and aren't we all picky when it comes to jeans?) but being as stubborn as her, I tried to have her wear yoga pants, poplin pants, cute jeans with appliqués. She.would.not.budge. 
I decided I had to pick my battles and let her win this one because I don't want her to wear leggings until she goes to college (and I also wanted to avoid going insane... arguing with a pre-schooler about pants rise before 7am is not my favorite thing to do). 
Finding pants like that i…
