The Amazing neo-Victorian Sweater

51/52: Geeks
Originally uploaded by sarawthouttheh

So I was commissioned to create this interesting neo-Victorian Steampunk lacy long knit sweater. I was given the wish list that the client (Sara) wanted it to look pretty close to a sweater that was worn by Alice Cullen in the Twilight movie, and was sent a picture of the sweater at various angles. This sweater that I was knitting needed to be an orginal DiVine Design, but also pretty close to the one worn in the movie. Sara did want to dress in costume as Alice for an upcoming Twilight convention that she, Sara was attending.

This is the amazing, wonderful result. Sara looks so great! And my knitting looks pretty darn good too.

Please feel free to visit one of my shops, and commission your very own custom fit sweater. Made special just for you.
