Challenge 1

Sep 1st, 2008

so, the challenge this time is to make a shirt in 3 weeks, under $25. well i quickly went over budget and then i voted for a budget increase to requalify me for the project. the vote is still pending but i suspect it’ll go my way.

i decided to make a lightweight sweater because i don’t like heavy, fluffy sweaters but i still like to venture away from my button down longsleeves, occasionally. plus it doesn’t get too cold in the winter here, so i wanted something that i could pair with a jacket and not run the risk of sweating if i’ve slightly overestimated the cold.

yes i do fully expect that when i wear the sweater, my legs will magically elongate like the guy i’ve sketched and i’ll get all buff
