I finished my knitted Steph!Batgirl hoodie! I've been working on it for over a year but finally it is DONE. It's based on Hanie Mohd's Batgirl in a sweater: I was going to dress up and try and imitate the art, but I'm lazy and it's freezing, so I didn't bother. Also, the purple's not really the right shade, but it's all there was in that type of yarn (all the nice yarn in better colours was pretty expensive, alas. Or made of pure wool, which I can't be having with), and it matches some of the cover art, so :D?
I still haven't quite got the hang of taking pictures of me wearing the things I've knitted, but I quite like this one.
The two I took before I spotted a good place to balance my camera and use the self-timer.
I wanted to do one of those cool poses that you see in cosplay photos, but it just looked ridiculously dorky. Since this is accurate to my life, I am posting it anyway.
You can just about see the articulation on the side panels in this one.
(I've typed up the pattern; it's a bit on the long side, so I've posted it in a backdated post here.)
Also relevant: Bryan Q. Miller is doing a Kickstarter for an all-ages sci fi graphic novel YES PLEASE. I enjoyed this interview with him, particularly for the comment that: "Kids will ALWAYS want to read something that's "for older kids/grown-ups". But the jump between Tiny Titans and Joker cutting his own face off is SEVERE", because... yes.
