I like that you can add or lose the belt as circumstances (in/out of the house) require. Now I'm obsessed with the idea of a shawligan! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-cozy-glam-70s-and-80s#post-2350929 Sun, 28 Jan 2024 23:33:51 +0000 Ket 2350929@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you, dear <b>Jaime</b> &lt;3 My heart is so warmed by your comment. Thankfully, I'm healing well. Sore and bruised but much less than I expected.&nbsp;</p> <div><br /></div><div>Oh, <b>Suz</b>! thank you dearly! I'm glad I found dark autumn.

Far less bruised than I expected -- to my surprise!<div><br /></div><div><b>Kate</b>, <b>Star</b>, thank you both so dearly!</div><div><br /></div><div><b>Bijou</b>, oh thank you!! I'm not sure exactly when then D&amp;G dress will come into existence. Def not this winter yet. But hopefully in time for next winter.&nbsp;</div><div><br /></div><div><b>Brooklyn</b>, great idea to try with a skirt! I will do this and show-and-tell soon.</div><div><br /></div><div><b>Indigoprint</b>, my husband is a precious man. Many an evening he entertains and watches our son and lets me sit and knit. He knows how much I love it.&nbsp;</div><div><br /></div><div>Oh <b>Mary Beth</b>!! I love the 40s!! The clothing is sometimes challenging for me to wear? (Some of the shapes and lines can get a little square and boxy.) I really love how you're seeing 80s-does-40s in this! I was thinking more 70s for some reason. (Probably the burnt orange steering me there...) I'm really getting more and more into the 80s somehow. Your grandmother sounds like a very stylish lady &lt;3&nbsp;</div> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-cozy-glam-70s-and-80s#post-2350826 Sat, 27 Jan 2024 15:08:00 +0000 Mary Beth (formerly LBD) 2350826@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This outfit is a win, in my book. &nbsp;Something about it puts me in mind of the clothes my English grandma wore in the 1940s - floral and a bit tweedy with the sweater texture (the sweater is fabulous, by the way).</p> <p>I know you’re saying 70s/80s, but what I’m feeling is that “early 80s-does-40s” trend that rode side-by-side with the swing/rockabilly revival. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-cozy-glam-70s-and-80s#post-2350816 Sat, 27 Jan 2024 07:15:21 +0000 Star (Lise) 2350816@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love your shawligan, the color is made for you.&nbsp; You can make cozy look glam. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-cozy-glam-70s-and-80s#post-2350810 Sat, 27 Jan 2024 05:30:57 +0000 Indigoprint 2350810@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow you are looking Fab...<br /> How do you get so much done?<br /> We homeschooled( no chickens)and knitting was part of our life but sweaters were such a commitment!!<br /> Well done! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-cozy-glam-70s-and-80s#post-2350809 Sat, 27 Jan 2024 05:12:42 +0000 Brooklyn 2350809@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The shawligan turned out fabulous.

Hard to take my eyes off of your photos. You made the perfect piece for the color and for you.</p> <p>Hope no more bad effects from the fall than a bruise or 2.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-cozy-glam-70s-and-80s#post-2350757 Fri, 26 Jan 2024 18:43:07 +0000 Ket 2350757@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, thank you, <b>Angie</b>!!! Your compliments are so lovely. I really love my new piece. I knit it in acrylic for the color. I might knit another one in a wool down the road. &nbsp;Also, thank you for the healing thoughts &lt;3 It's been 20+ years since I wiped out and fell on ice. It was quite the shock. I really do feel okay so far, besides just sore. So I'm thankful for that.&nbsp;</p> <div><br /></div><div>As for the shawligan design... I have to thank the designer. It's from Rebecca Taylor and I feel her designs are really great. (Well, purportedly--probably a ghost knitwear designer made it, as is the case for fashion labels and designers haha!) Sadly, I just read Taylor's parent company, Vince, filed chapter 11 bankruptcy in 2023. So I'm not certain if Rebecca Taylor will still have a label? She has a lovely dress design that is super close to a 2020 autumn D&amp;G knit dress I've had my eye on for some time. I'm hoping to knit that one soon.&nbsp;<div><br /></div></div></p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-cozy-glam-70s-and-80s#post-2350756 Fri, 26 Jan 2024 18:33:51 +0000 Ket 2350756@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b>ChristelJ</b>, the pattern isn't available to purchase in PDF format, sadly.

It feels like something I would purchase from Anthropologie--which is always a good feeling, I think. Even though I really enjoy more traditional knitted sweaters.&nbsp;<div><br /></div><div>I promise, it is a pretty easy knit. It's a long knitted rectangle that is folded into a kind of T shape and sewn together. The lace is also really simple.&nbsp;</div> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-cozy-glam-70s-and-80s#post-2350741 Fri, 26 Jan 2024 17:23:08 +0000 ChristelJ 2350741@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am in awe of your shawligan! Looks great in both versions and perfect with that blouse. So sorry you fell, and cozy glam sounds just right for self care. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-cozy-glam-70s-and-80s#post-2350740 Fri, 26 Jan 2024 17:09:51 +0000 Ket 2350740@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Trying something new today. Cozy Glam. I finished my shawligan in October but hadn’t sewn on the pockets. Yesterday I finally got myself motivated to sew on the second pocket because I really wanted to wear it today. Since it’s cold and snowing yet again, cozy pants sounded good. The ice also got me yesterday. I slipped on very slick, watery ice outside the hen house. Landed flat on my back. My tailbone and head were spared the crack, my shoulder, elbow, hip are definitely bruised. I’m surprisingly okay today. Feeling the desire for something comforting, nevertheless. </p> <p>So… glammed it up! It’s definitely chunkier look with the layers haha. But it is cozy and lovely. </p> <p>Old wrap top with 70s vibes/Old Navy<br /> Pumpkin spice shawligan/handknit by me<br /> Fleece sweat pants/Walmart<br /> L’Oreal Raisin Rapture/lipstick<br /> Earrings/Temu</p> <p>Ignore my Crocs, they’re house shoes. I am hoping to replace with a flat smoking loafer if I ever find a wide enough toe box. </p> <p>The belt adds some good waist definition. But for around the house, I leave it off. </p> <p>Hair is dirty and I slapped it up into a pouf. It’s always easy to do with dirty hair. And it’s 80s, rockabilly, and all the fun. So here I am. not sure I like how I turned out this time? But it’s up. </p> <p>xo and happy Friday. </p>
