8-Bit Sweater - Finished!
The 8-bit sweater is also done!!!! I feel like I knit this thing twice with all the adjustments I had to make, but the finished product fits perfectly. This will definitely make an appearance in the super cold days of winter. Huge thanks to Lattes & Llamas for putting this mystery knit-along together and for helping me get the results I wanted. #knitting #geekalong #8bitsweater #8bitGAL #mkal #lattesandllamas
8-Bit Sweater - Clue 12
What the fuck. I am targeting size 4, which says 8" from sleeve join to collar, but I am not even done with the first set of 9 rounds. There are at least like 17 more rounds to do. #8bitGAL #geekalong #8bitsweater #knitting #lattesandllamas
8-Bit Sweater - Clue 11
Second-to-last clue of the #8bitGAL is done. Just some yoke prep before the final collar clue. Nervous about the fit, so I hope it comes together. #8bitsweater #geekalong #lattesandllamas #knitting
8-Bit Sweater - Clue 10
Clue 9 is little tiny video game controllers! Gonna be honest, I'm not sure why there seems to be so much space between the Boos and the controllers, but my measurements all seem right I think, so I'm trying not to stress out about it too much. #knitting #mkal #8bitGAL #8bitsweater #lattesandllamas #geekalong
8-Bit Sweater - Clue 9
Clue 9 was boring geek-wise in that there were no new characters. But, it was exciting sweater-wise because now the sleeves are attached to the body, the underarms are grafted, and all ends so far are woven in. Only 3 clues to go! #knitting #geekalong #8bitsweater #8bitGAL #lattesandllamas
8-Bit Sweater - Clue 8
Blew through clue 8 of the #8bitsweater to get the Boos set up to coordinate with the Mario mushrooms and stars at the tops of the sleeves. It fits perfectly and I can't wait to join the sleeves and body together next week. #8bitGAL #geekalong #lattesandllamas #mkal #knitting
8-Bit Sweater - Clue 7
Clue 7 is done and features MegaMan! #geekalong #mkal #knitting #lattesandllamas #8bitsweater #8bitGAL #megaman
8-Bit Sweater - Clue 6
Clue 6 is Pac-Man! Tried it on and it fits great now. Just in time for clue 7 tomorrow. #geekalong #lattesandllamas #8bitGAL #8bitsweater #mkal #pacman
8-Bit Sweater - Clue 5 update
I tried on my sweater after clue 5 and it was too big, so I ripped it all out and started over with a smaller size. Luckily I didn't get too far and it won't take long to catch back up. I'd much rather work a little bit of it twice than end up with a sweater I won't wear. #8bitsweater #8bitGAL #geekalong #mkal #lattesandllamas #sunkcostfallacy
8-Bit Sweater - Clue 5
