Alejandro's Trekkie Sweater is complete!





It came out a little big for him, but he's still growing and he's only just starting to fill out his frame, so I'm not really worried. This was really a labor of love for me; a boring pattern and cotton yarn, which I don't like - but he got really excited about it and he's mentioned wearing it to Comicon despite the fact that Comicon is in July. Warm fuzzies. I haz dem. ^-^

As long as he wears in inside the con, he should be okay since they always have the AC pumped up inside the hall. But um outside, that might be another story


You are so skilled. I am practicing I will be ready for Wincon this year with my mad knitting skills lol

Yeah, I saw a guy there last year in a completely knitted Superman costume. His cape must've weighed a ton.

Noro has a cashmere blend in a colorway called "Hunter." I'm gonna bring some to Wincon and see if I get inspired. XD

COOL! Yeah, I get the whole labor of love bit. You did a fantastic job and it looks wonderful! (and he looks so jazzed!)

[scary-lullabies.livejournal.com]

Thank you! Yeah, and I have a really hard time knitting for people I don't really want to knit for, or if I knit for ppl arbitrarily. It's a whole thing. :}

<333 I am filled with glee! (There is probably a market for Trekkie sweaters. My dad would totally buy one, and he has resisted buying sweaters because "this is The South and it's never cold, I'm not buying any more sweaters/coats," but he would totally ogle some Trekkiewear. *G*)

(What am I talking about, there're TOTALLY people buying Trekkiewear already. Hee.)

[scary-lullabies.livejournal.com]

Hee! Trekkiewear like that is fun, especially because it calls for a sixties hairdo. XD

Hee! I worked on it a lot while he and my mom watched episodes of The Next Generation. XD
