Finished Objects: Meghan's Star Crossed ✨

Meghan's Star Crossed in Forge + Weld 

It's been a whirlwind month of knitting, but my Star Crossed by Jacqui Cieslak (@jacquelinecieslak) is finished! Emme's (@rocksteadyemme) gorgeous test knit of Star Crossed in Forge in our fawn colorway and Spincycle Dream State inspired me to immediately cast on a Star Crossed of my own!  

Ever since I finished my test knit for Stagleap, I've been itching to make a sweater for myself in Raven, so this project popped up at the perfect time. A black sweater might seem daunting, but ever since I started knitting with black yarn I've been actually wearing my handknits more than ever. Why? Because they actually match my unintentionally very New York wardrobe. It's really quite a revelation to make clothing that isn't in just a color I appreciate, but actually wear regularly. 

Although Spincycle Dream State is quite dreamy, I wanted to try holding together our Weld in two different colors for a marled look. Naturally, I selected aspen and ash, our natural white and gray, for the marl to contrast with all that delicious black. It turns out Weld x2 is a bit puffier than Forge, so I ended up using the same needle size throughout, instead of changing to a smaller needle for the colorwork, as the pattern recommends. It turned out just right! 

 
Weld held doubled in Ash + Aspen 

In process, it became clear that I needed to lengthen my Star Crossed for max comfort and wearability. Tunic length sweaters with cowls are my jam, so I worked the body to 19" [48 cm] before dividing for the front and back. This way the colorwork hem doesn't land on the widest point of my apple-shaped body, and instead pulls the eye downward. I've been styling my Star Crossed with a comfy black skater dress and leggings, as to not pull attention away from all that lovely colorwork at the hem.  

Friday at the Met

This sweater has already become a staple in my rotation, and I can totally see myself not only wearing it weekly, but easily become one of the sweaters I pull on over my pjs for cozy knitting time at night. 

Hot Tip: The lighting at the Met is the perfect place for FO photography.

What can I say other than I highly recommend both the pattern and making it in Forge + Weld x2! If you're all interested in one of our easy yarn bundles for this design, let us know and we can set it up on the site!  

Notably, it gives me all the feels to see a plus-size activist designer like Jacqui Cieslak (@jacquelinecieslak) creating beautiful patterns and photography that are universally embraced. As a plus-size knitwear designer, I've largely shied away from designing for myself, which I've come to realize deeply damaged my own feeling of self-worth, as well as reinforced the stigma of fatphobia. Knitting a gorgeous sweater by a plus size designer has not only given me a beautiful new sweater I'll cherish, but has also been an act of self love and embracing who I am as I am.

    HIRE META TECH RECOVERY PRO TO RECOVER YOUR LOST OR STOLEN BITCOIN/ETH/USDT/NFT AND CRYPTOCURRENCY

    The exceptional team at META Tech Recovery Pro, whom I now consider family, has my utmost gratitude. It would be remiss of me not to acknowledge the outstanding service they provided. I have personally experienced the unfortunate reality that even innocent investors can be defrauded. I made an ill-advised investment, resulting in the loss of USDC and USDT. However, while perusing an online article, I came across a review of Taylor’s experience, which highlighted META Tech Recovery Pro’s success in helping her and her family recover funds lost to a scam. Upon contacting this cybersecurity firm, they successfully aided in the retrieval of my stolen digital USDC assets. I am genuinely impressed by their remarkable service and professionalism. I had not anticipated the possibility of recovering my funds until I presented my situation and all relevant documentation to META Tech Recovery Pro. I was astonished that they recovered my funds within 28 hours. My USDT assets were, without question, successfully recovered from the fraudulent platform. I would like to extend my sincere appreciation to you, Sir. I wholeheartedly endorse META Tech Recovery Pro for any requirements related to bitcoin recovery, digital funds recovery, hacking, and cybersecurity.

    A lot of people have lost bitcoin through scams, as I’ve read. I’d like to start by saying that the groups in charge of bitcoin security haven’t done anything to help people get back coins that they lost or had stolen. In my case, someone broke into my computer and stole 4.3 bitcoins by reading my emails. I called blockchain right away, but they didn’t answer. Then I looked for help somewhere else and was told to talk to a bitcoin expert. For a fee, they helped me find and get back my bitcoins. It was fine with me to pay more when the job was done. That’s great that you got help. Please get in touch with recoveryhacker101@gmail.com.
