Finally finished my Magnus Archives cardigan!
Started it on July 1st and finished on September 19th. Did it by looking at two other eyeball sweaters and saying "I don't think I need to buy that pattern", which, admittedly, I don't think I did. It came out pretty well for not knowing what I was doing.

Bonus goofy picture with my cat when I was trying to take a selfie inside.

They didn't take long, I'm just impatient with a garter stitch

Eyeball cardigan update!
Spent two hours sewing squares together and so far I'm happy with my results. The two right panels will be the front of the cardigan and the leftmost one will be a sleeve.
Tumblr media
I still have the back and one sleeve to stitch together (probably tomorrow night). Then sewing the panels into clothing-shaped pieces and adding trim. And the worst task: weaving in ends.
I realized this will get done in time for Spooky Season, which was an accident I'm really happy with

I finished my brother's Christmas present a month before the deadline, which is far sooner than I expected. The cats are based off ours. Charlie is the orange boy, Kiki is the b&w and Jane Doe is the tortie. I'm hoping it fits, but if it doesn't, I hope no one tells me!

I think I finally found a sewing pattern that 1) is in my stash 2) I have fabric for and 3) doesn't make me dysphoric.
I probably won't try them tonight because it's 9pm and I'm already tired, but it's a good idea, I think
Hopefully

I got the zipper done on my pants. This is exciting because I was at it for 3+ hours on Tuesday and tore it out twice.
I'm hoping it'll be easy from this point out

So this will probably look like nothing to most people, but I'm very excited about my cardigan progress because I think I finally got the size sorted out
