Well, that's the exciting bit done- now for the boring back and sleeves. I might put a scorpion on my back for fun 🦂😲 #egypt #handknit #handknitsweater #handknitjumper #vintage #vintagepattern #vintageknittingpattern #vintageknitting #knitting #knittersofinstagram #instaknit #craftastherapy #abmcrafty #makersmovement #yarn #perthcreatives #perthmakers

Ribbit ribbit - frogging this because it grew a HEAP when I washed it after first knitting it, and now it’s both too long and too wide. I’m going to re-knit the pattern, but with a different yarn and turn this into something different. Yarn is @malabrigoyarn Susurro in Teal Feather Pattern was (is?) the Biscuit Sweater by @swankyemuknits and the pattern is AWESOME I just made a bad yarn choice #FrogIt #Knitwear #HandKnitSweater #HandKnitJumper #MeMadeWardrobe https://www.instagram.com/p/CWAZQYYpGl2/?utm_medium=tumblr

Pardon the horrid mirror photos, but I’m in a quandary about the length of this sweater! The hem/cuff will be the same either way, as pictured on the left. Please weigh in! Cropped pros and cons: more versatile with skirts and dresses, but not as nice with pants. May emphasize my middle rather than slim it. Will leave yarn left over, when I’d rather use it up. Perhaps I like it only because it’s en vogue, but not as timeless? Long pros and cons: More winter-appropriate and warm, but won’t be long enough to cover my bum and wear with leggings. Perhaps more slimming, or perhaps the added length also adds bulk. More classic, likelier to stand the test of time? #handknitsweater #handknitjumper #fairisle #fairislesweater #fairisleyoke #imarealknitter #knitstagram #knittersofinstagram #knittingproblems #knitterproblems https://www.instagram.com/p/B2MDQ6rBeUu/?igshid=13lmgtihln2id
