I adore these sweaters! I love that you are not afraid of colours. I know that style is very personal and I think there is generally no wrong way to make clothes but it's just so refreshing to see things knitted in other colors than just beige or cream. And it's also nice to see someone knit with Drops yarn.. after watching knitting podcasts, I often feel like I should buy better yarn but I simply can't afford that.

The sweater vest and the little sleeveless tops look the best, I believe, on your body type. Please make more of these for yourself. You deserve it. I agree that one sweater can be made into a t-shirt. I really like the pattern on the Stripy Affair sweater. I agree that the November jacket is less than ideal. I would frog it because whomever takes it will have the same problem. The sweater with the one striped sleeve is a great graphic design. I personally would not wear it with that sleeve shape and would fix that. The sweaters I loved the best were the Semper Slipover, Grace Sweater and the Stripy Affair. The first sweater I ever made shrunk in the wash (100% Germantown Wool) and I couldn't wear it. I gave it to some ladies who make mittens and slippers out of felted knits. I was told that my sweater was made into tall slipper socks. The sweater had an asymmetric button closure and the drapey collar was six inches wide and fell over the front and around the back. The collar formed the top cuffs of the slipper socks. I was so happy.

I just stumbled across your videos right as I'm knitting my second sweater ever, and it's so much fun seeing what other people have worked on - wow are those a lot of beautiful tops!!!! I'm not sure if you've still held onto that bulky weight sweater (I actually love the idea of the colourblocked V!) but if you wanted to manage the loose ends before keeping it/giving it away, I think that you might be able to braid them down? I've kind of been hyper-fixating on fair isle garments recently and I've been seeing that particularly in patterns where you're switching colours maybe every few rows, a lot of people will leave snip the ends when changing colours, leave them out and then braid it down into one big seam once they've finished the sweater - it's a really neat technique and I think that it might be able to work in this case.
