Who is this sweater for?

 Today, we have a sweater that I started for Evan in 2014. It was intended to be about a size 8, and didn't get finished at that time. I picked it up again, thinking to finish it, and discovered that it is in no way a child size 8. If I make it a few inches longer than the pattern calls for, it will certainly fit me. Problem is, I don't particularly want it. It would fit Evan even now, but he won't wear anything which isn't black. Oh well, finish it and then figure out who it belongs to, I suppose. Pattern is Lancelot, modified with a v-neck (apologies for the terrible photo.)

    Hey, I just remembered I'm supposed to be checking your blog!

    Maybe if you wait a few years, Evan will grow out of his black phase and decide he wants it? I could see the grey going well with an industrial kind of look...

      It's Miranda in case that wasn't clear, for some reason I thought blogspot knew my name

    Hey, look, the first comment! Yes, you never know, maybe he will want it someday. It is actually blue, the picture is bad.

Scrap Stripe Sweater, finished

 Finished this one up a couple of weeks ago, but then it needed to be washed/blocked, and get its buttons sewn on, and then wait for a photo opportunity, which finally came yesterday. I am really pleased with it, and the buttons are ones that I made in a ceramics class in Fall 2019, so I feel a very strong sense of ownership for this one. The diamonds around the yoke were inspired by a recent leafing through of some old Kaffe Fassett books from the 80s, and I've given the pattern information in this post . The back is particularly fun. (Photo credit to David)

That big blobbly thing...

 is acceptable now. This is a Kitty Pi , made with four strands of yarn held together and then felted, so it's nice and thick. Still a little big, so might run it through the machine one more time. Here is what it looked like before felting:
