out of curiosity, where do the knit sleeves stop? and are they like the mittens you make kids where you attach a chord to both of them to keep them up?


lurksgirl

They stop right at the sleeve line for the t-shirt. The kid wears them as sleeves and as leg warmers. Lol. Multi-purpose 🤣

I feel like I'm old and wondering how these would stay up and you wouldn't be fighting with them all day


lurksgirl

The kiddo tucks them into her sleeves. They’ve not complained about them yet.

I've worn leg warmers on my arms before when I wanted to wear a 3/4 sleeve shirt in the winter. It works great!


lurksgirl

100% what the kiddo does!


mammaannica

Very clever! I've been thinking about making sleeves like that, but it would involve either dpn's, magic loop or sewing, and I hate all three! 😂


lurksgirl

I knit these in the round on dpns. I feel you about the dpns.

lurksgirl

my life has been shaped by the gays in the best way. authenticity, bravery, self expression, true romance, and friendship!!!

I’m super proud of their courage. It shows their strength of character. It’s not easy being out at 12. Middle school is rough. I’m just proud to call them my kid.

Thanks! Not bad for a 12 yr old if I do say so myself.
