I took the machine in yesterday to be looked at. Fingers crossed I can get it back right away. My son is flying in on Saturday. It has to be finished before then. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-casual-christmas-party---more-crazy-stripes#post-1870178 Wed, 20 Dec 2017 15:18:19 +0000 karen13 1870178@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I continue to love that sweater on you! Have you cleaned and oiled the machine? I always seem to find a tiny random thread in the bobbin case when I can't figure out tension. As a last resort I mess the the tiny screw on the bobbin case, but not sure of the vintage of your machine - mine is a 1970s Elna. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-casual-christmas-party---more-crazy-stripes#post-1870165 Wed, 20 Dec 2017 14:50:33 +0000 JAileen 1870165@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Brooklyn, okay, now I definitely want to visit at Christmas time. </p> <p>FashIntern, happy to push.</p> <p>Lisa, thank you. I'm a little kooky, actually (hello, Scottie sweater), but thought the dark jeans and boots grounded the outfit. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-casual-christmas-party---more-crazy-stripes#post-1870001 Tue, 19 Dec 2017 23:36:10 +0000 Anonymous 1870001@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This striped look is so great on you! I admit to looking at this pile of sweaters in the Gap each holiday season and not getting it. &nbsp;It's so far outside of my comfort zone it's laughable, but you are wearing it so beautifully and with sophistication . Kookiness I don't go for, but this is far from it. Nice! &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-casual-christmas-party---more-crazy-stripes#post-1869956 Tue, 19 Dec 2017 21:10:03 +0000 Stagiaire Fash 1869956@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yep—thanks for the push </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-casual-christmas-party---more-crazy-stripes#post-1869954 Tue, 19 Dec 2017 20:44:27 +0000 Brooklyn 1869954@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>“Bloke” may have originated in the UK but now we claim it as ours. Much like the Bee Gees and Olivia Newton John. 100% Aussie! A hot summer Christmas is fun. It’s a good experience and very different from a winter one (which I have done). The focus is outdoors: the beach, BBQs, seafood, cricket, carols in the domain (outdoor concert venue). For our office Xmas party we had an outdoor BBQ and played lawn bowls. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-casual-christmas-party---more-crazy-stripes#post-1869797 Tue, 19 Dec 2017 14:47:15 +0000 JAileen 1869797@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Joy, thank you. He definitely wanted to be noticed.</p> <p>Brooklyn, thank you. Isn't bloke used in the UK, too? I really need to get to Australia, and NZ, too, and at Christmas time, I think.</p> <p>FashIntern, you changed your name! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-casual-christmas-party---more-crazy-stripes#post-1869756 Tue, 19 Dec 2017 09:45:41 +0000 Stagiaire Fash 1869756@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>JAileen, are you calling me a bird again? Good reminder that I have got to try again to change my name!!! Greg figured out the problem the other day. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-casual-christmas-party---more-crazy-stripes#post-1869753 Tue, 19 Dec 2017 09:43:02 +0000 Brooklyn 1869753@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love your stripes!</p> <p>And how wonderful that Angie used the word “bloke”. I hereby declare Angie an honorary Aussie. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-casual-christmas-party---more-crazy-stripes#post-1869730 Tue, 19 Dec 2017 04:56:38 +0000 Anonymous 1869730@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The stripes with matching scarf are a wonderful look. Not many men would wear the outfit that man had on but it is sure to make people smile. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-casual-christmas-party---more-crazy-stripes#post-1869712 Tue, 19 Dec 2017 03:00:13 +0000 JAileen 1869712@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Suz, thank you. I like thinking of the sweater and scarf as a twinset. The man definitely enjoyed my noticing him.</p> <p>FT, yes, Suz nailed it.</p> <p>I'm googling sewing machine tension problems.</p> <p>Bridgie, thank you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-casual-christmas-party---more-crazy-stripes#post-1869711 Tue, 19 Dec 2017 02:59:34 +0000 bridgie 1869711@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love your stripe sweater and scarf.</p> <p>Cute picture of Guy in Ugly Sweater</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-casual-christmas-party---more-crazy-stripes#post-1869683 Tue, 19 Dec 2017 01:44:13 +0000 Stagiaire Fash 1869683@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>“You don't dress up like that and then hope to be ignored.”. Pahaha. Good point. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-casual-christmas-party---more-crazy-stripes#post-1869679 Tue, 19 Dec 2017 01:41:25 +0000 Suz 1869679@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love you in the stripes! So much fun. And a scarf / sweater twinset is such a fun twist on the usual twinset. Sort of like Angie's dress and scarf from the blog today.&nbsp;</p> <p>That man's outfit is killer amazing! I'm sure he was delighted to be noticed. You don't dress up like that and then hope to be ignored. I wish we could see his wife, too!</p> <p>Good luck with your project!!</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-casual-christmas-party---more-crazy-stripes#post-1869673 Tue, 19 Dec 2017 01:34:27 +0000 JAileen 1869673@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Angie, thank you so much.</p> <p>Fashiontern, I didn't know him. That's why I didn't show his face.</p> <p>UmmLila, thank you. The man was pleased as punch. He was waiting for his wife. I wonder what she was wearing?</p> <p>Everything would be wonderful, except now I'm having tension problems with my sewing machine, and only a few days to finish a surprise project.<br /> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-casual-christmas-party---more-crazy-stripes#post-1869659 Tue, 19 Dec 2017 00:59:54 +0000 UmmLila (Lisa) 1869659@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Awesome sweater on you. I'm sure that guy was thrilled you admired his outfit enough to photograph him. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-casual-christmas-party---more-crazy-stripes#post-1869658 Tue, 19 Dec 2017 00:54:44 +0000 Stagiaire Fash 1869658@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wait, what? You don’t know him but you took his picture? I must be missing the joke. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-casual-christmas-party---more-crazy-stripes#post-1869608 Mon, 18 Dec 2017 21:46:11 +0000 Angie 1869608@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>FABULOUS crazy stripes, <b>Janet.</b>&nbsp;</p> <p>The bloke in #2 looks amazing too.

It was inspired by MsMary. My sweater is different from hers, though, as mine is not ribbed. I wore dark wash boot cut jeans and SE navy suede booties. </p> <p>Bonus photos: I had to go to the quilt store this weekend and saw this man in his amazing outfit. </p>
