Kuffel: Meghan's Size Inclusive WIP
Kuffel by Alexis Winslow
My knitting needles are empty. Well, sort of. My selfish knitting needles are empty. After binding off my Star Crossed and immediately putting it on I realized that I have our entire Deep Winter 2020 collection to chose from for my next selfish knitting project. Kuffel by Alexis Winslow is my next sweater on deck and I've been thinking extensively about my color options and also any modification I might want to make for my body type.
As a plus size knitter, the latter is usually the first thing I consider when I'm contemplating a new design to cast on. It is a rare occasion for me to cast on a project without some modifications, which is something I rather enjoy. It makes the project my own, tailored for me, and gives me a little extra to think about while I'm making a garment for myself.
In the case of Kuffel, I am anticipating the hem line ending at a spot I'd rather it not for my body shape (A is for Apple). I've been intrigued by several sweaters with high-low hemlines of late (like the gorgeous Grey Space, which is in my queue!), making the front a bit on the cropped side and the back gently brushing the tush. I think this option for my Kuffel is the perfect solution, as I'll be able to style it over dresses, as well as long tops with jeans, which is perfect for my existing wardrobe!
Sunsent over San Bernardino
Alexis recommends approximately 8-14" [20.25 - 35.5 cm] of positive ease for this top, which is a generous range, but I've found that going beyond 10" [25.5 cm] of positive ease for my 50" [127 cm] bust things start to get a bit....excessive for my taste. Especially considering the lovely large graphic running over my already ample bust. So I'm probably going with the 58" [147.25 cm] finished chest for my Kuffel, so it's not too big, but still extremely cozy.
Look at all that beautifully bold colorwork!
It is well established that by preferred colors are black, gray, and dark black, but I'm going to attempt to branch out a bit with this design...maybe? Here are my color combos, and the struggle has been real to choose.
The Choices
Charcoal + Ash
Red Feather + Fawn
Ash + Aspen
Evergreen + Fawn
What do you think? I'm leaning towards Charcoal + Ash, but I also love Red Feather + Fawn, too. Let me know and stay tuned for more on my progress!
xo,
Meghan
I was devastated. After sinking my life savings of $346,700 into a shady crypto trading platform, I watched it vanish. Fake recovery firms piled on, scamming me further with empty promises and upfront fees. First, Elite Crypto Recoveries promised 90% return for a $5,000 upfront fee. They ghosted me after payment. Then Blockchain Saviors demanded $10,000 for advanced tracing, only to disappear. I fell for three more fakes, losing another $20,000. Each time, slick websites and fake testimonials suckered me in. I felt foolish, broke, and hopeless. Depression set in, I’d worked 20 years as a teacher to save that money for retirement and my kid’s college. One sleepless night, scrolling forums like Reddit’s r/cryptoscams, a post caught my eye: Alpha Spy Nest saved me from ruin. Intrigued, I researched. They were forensics experts specializing in blockchain analysis. Their site, alphaspynest.org, detailed success stories. Skeptical after my ordeals, I emailed alphaspynest@mail.com. They responded promptly, no pressure. They explained their process. I provided transaction IDs, wallet addresses, and scam details. Their team, cyber investigators, blockchain analysts sprang into action. Using forensic software, they traced funds through mixers and anonymous wallets. It wasn’t easy, scammers had laundered via DeFi protocols. But Alpha Spy Nest’s expertise shone. They collaborated with law enforcement contacts, freezing suspect accounts. Days passed with updates: We’ve identified the endpoint wallet. Then the breakthrough, negotiating with exchanges to reverse transfers. Finally, the email: Funds recovered. $316,700 back in my secure wallet. Tears flowed. Alpha Spy Nest restored not just my money, but my faith. If you’re scammed, skip fake recoveries and contact them. Life’s brighter now; I’m investing wisely, thanks to their guidance. Don’t give up, real help exists.

I chose to use the services of a software specialist who helps people recover lost money, and I can attest to his effectiveness because I used him when I lost a significant amount of money in a questionable online investment. I must admit that I was initially skeptical, but to my surprise, he was able to recover my lost money within a few weeks—and I’m talking about a very large sum recovered. BONES RECOVERY BITCOIN is professional and efficient in his work, and what I liked best about him is that he kept me informed throughout the process of recovering my lost money. To this day, all I can do is thank him for his generosity, which is why I chose to share this information.

After everything I’ve been through, including losing all of my life savings to online crooks who stole over $52,700 BTC, I can’t see ever being happy again. Feeling like my life was over and unsure of what to do next, I came dangerously close to taking my own life. Prior to learning about recovery, I looked up answers online. I registered my case with BONES RECOVERY BITCOIN, and after a hacker reviewed the name, I chose to try them out. When I discovered that, after three working days, I had almost all of my money returned, I was astounded and disbelieving. Many thanks, BONES RECOVERY BITCOIN. Below are the contact details
