#bats knits

[oneclumsybat]

Finished and styled appropriately! Alas it is far too hot to wear at the moment, but hopefully it will be fine for late night bat walks.

I am super proud of this jumper and my first time starting a garment from my own idea rather than replicating a pattern! It was really fun making lots of decisions along the way to bring my vision to life!

Been working on something...

Dear Elizabeth tee by Grey Owl Knits - releasing in about a week!

I've really enjoyed this test knit (even though the timing unfortunately overlapped a bit with writing my thesis). It's inspired by Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice, with cameos of Lizzie and Darcy, and book stacks on the back. Will hopefully get finished object photos soon!

The knitting pattern I tested has been released!

I'm so happy with the finished project photos as well as the finished garment 💙

Tried on my WIP and I love it!! Was getting unsure about the light brown but now I've actually tried it on I'm very happy with the results and excited to continue with the rest of the body! I really like the soft natural vibe of this combo, and the richness of the green.

I might see if I can do some decreasing at the end of the body before the ribbing to get my preferred shape to make it absolutely perfect.

Progress! Finished yoke section 1 and have begun section 2. Also got barber cord which means I can do the aesthetic circular yoke pictures!

Owl Cowl is blocking, the puckering is gone, and my bathroom smells like sheep.

Current WIP, I'm so excited now I can properly visualise the final result! Will be straightforward enough as I have most of the body and the sleeves left to knit
