If Einstein was alive he'd want to talk about these trousers

And now that's the sky blue astronauts ticked in the box too, only the purple still to sew. Maia is gunning hard for a dress but extreme naughtiness on her part is making it hard for me to acquiesce.

And here they are when I let go: the astronauts are a lot less curly. Both are jersey knits but the astronauts are a slightly heavier weight and therefore a little bit more straightforward to sew.
