holy giant sweatercoat, batman

it took 3 days, and 18 sweaters, but i finally have a Katwise-esque sweatercoat finished.
it is made of black and grey sweaters gathered from the thrift stores and freeboxes in the area. the skirt is super swishy, and twirls when you spin! the back has an "Om" patch made from the same sweaters, and the pointy elf hood is just plain fun. it's dark out now, so any pictures won't do it justice. tomorrow i'll borrow my boyfriend's super swanky camera and take some fun coat pics to share!

if anyone is interested in tackling making one themselves, the tutorial is available from Kat for $7 at etsy.com/stores/katwise. even if you don't want to make one, it's a fun thing to read!
