"Oma" is my mom, it is German for grandma. She really likes turtle necks and I can even remember her wearing them at the beach, she said it was to protect her skin.
With all the sewing and refashioning I've been doing she was motivated to clean out a couple of drawers and donated a pile of turtle necks in a variety of colors. Here's what I made for Henry and his cousin (pattern info here). There were so many turtle necks that I went ahead and made them double layer T's - they will be almost as warm as a sweatshirt.
That is so perfect for the cold michigan weather. That big pockets are great.
