Someone asked in a comment if I planned on modelling Sunrise when it is finished. I think I can safely speak for both Sally and myself when I say that we will NOT be modelling any of our completed fashions. There are many blogs out there where people show off their beautiful creations by modelling them. This is not one of those blogs. It’s not that Sally and I are hideous or deformed, but I am not photogenic and do not feel the need to prove it publicly in an ongoing way!!
At the Knitters Guild “Knit Out” event held in October, we have fashion shows where volunteers model the sweaters that knitters bring to display. It is funny to see my sweaters on someone else because the sleeves hang down past their hands and they look like they are in mommy’s dress ups. Even then, I do not model my stuff.
It was great to see you, Susan, at the WWKIP this past Saturday
and I will attest that you did not appear to be hideous or
deformed. I can’t attest to the photogenic comment but I do
enjoy looking at the photos of completed & wip projects that you
and Sally post.

Susan, I’m the guilty party that asked. 🙁 I can empathize since I despise pictures of myself. Please let me clarify. I had envisioned more of a shot from the back to see the drape of the finished product..you know to get a feel for how is looks complete rather than a “dozing pose” all spread out on a flat surface. A front shot would be fine too… the photographer could just catch you from the neck down??!? Love the blog BTW.
