Update: I wore flannel for the first time this year yesterday, so sweater weather is approaching, and I have both body pieces and one arm done!

This sweater, like many cabled sweaters, is knit flat and sown after because cables are a little harder in the round.

The sweater was written for fairly standard men's sizes and I am not man shaped, so I've made fairly significant modifications to it to make it fit me the way I want. (if anyone is interested in the full details of my modifications, let me know and I can write them up when the sweater is done.)

I'm knitting larger than the largest body size, decreasing to slimmer shoulders than that size, and that fits well so far.

The real test of my math was the modifications I've done to the sleeves. I increased from the smallest written size at the wrist to the largest at the shoulders, and then decreased the shoulder cap faster than written so that it would be a shorter shoulder cap. This was complicated by the fact that I also removed several inches from the sleeve length. I've just matched up the finished shoulder cap to the body pieces, and I think they're going to come together without too much difficulty! I'm very pleased, I was nervous about this part fitting together.

Side note: I fucking love the tubular cast on. I never want to do any other cast on for ribbing for garments ever, ever again.

I am determined to get this sweater done by the time sweater weather is upon us...this is the back panel, front's already done. Making progress!!

The Teddy Bear Man 

On September 12, 1992, hunters at a point called Falkenuten located in Norway's Hardangervidda national park discovered a skeleton at around 1,200 meters above sea level. The police arrived and began their investigation. The skeleton belonged to a very slim person aged 22-27. No cause of death could be adequately determined based on the remains, but the police believed the decedent to be an inexperienced hiker who got lost and strayed from the beaten path before freezing to death. The police reached this conclusion due to their belongings not belonging to an experienced hiker and based on the weather during the past 2 years, which were noted to be bad. The police ruled that the decedent had died in the summer of 1991 but possibly as early the summer of 1992 and as late as 1990. The remains were examined and the anthropologist who examined the body was unable to determine the decedent's gender as their hipbones corresponded to that of a woman while the skull was more similar to a male. The professor made a recreation of the decedent's face, which was shown in Norwegian newspapers, making it the first time in Norway such an action was taken. The professor found nothing indicating a homicide or suicide, and it was determined that they likely froze to death. Examinations of their teeth showed that he had amalgam fillings, with laboratory results showing they were older fillings possibly made in Sweden.

The decedent's belongings consisted of a 1,000 Norwegian Krone banknote which was first circulated in 1991, multiple plastic bags containing rye bread, baking powder, small wine bottles and water bottles as well as other provisions all of which originated from Germany with the bags having German writing on them, a road map of Southern Norway which had been purchased at Storgata in Norway's capital Oslo, the ground near the decedent's discovery was found to be trampled leading police to believe the map may have been used to set up a makeshift tent. The last item of note was a makeshift teddy bear 35 cm tall which was very aged but frequently repaired. The teddy bear is what led to the decedent being named "Teddybjørn-mannen"

The decedent was wearing Levis Jeans, a brown leather jacket, a pullover made by German brand S. Oliver, hiking boots and a poncho which had been purchased in either Hamburg or Munich, Germany. The police also believed that like many other foreigners in the area they may have brought a backpack with them but no such item was ever found and was likely scavenged by local wildlife as their clothing and remains had at some point prior been chewed on by animals. These findings only strengthen the police's belief that they were an inexperienced hikeror foreign national as the mutable water bottles the decedent packed with them added unnecessary weight despite the water in the national park being safe for human consumption. The police found a handful of eyewitnesses who reported seeing a German man walking in the opposite direction or riding a bike, but their sightings have never been substantiated.

The decedent's case was reopened in 2022 and their DNA was retested with modern equipment, which ascertained the decedent's gender as male. Norwegian police also sent the man's information to Germany's Bundeskriminalamt and Interpol, but no matches were obtained.

After the TV show Åsted Norge aired a special about the case in the Spring of 2022, a German national came forward recalling having seen an episode of the German talk show Fliege in 1998 where a female guest talked about how her son went missing vacationing in Norway. Despite this, the TV station couldn't find any records and the host Jürgen Fliege couldn't recall such an episode. No one in Germany has come forward to report missing relatives in Norway who could match the decedent.

I think peak television are the one of bests brand if not the best in terms of their creative vision. they’re like the only brand I’ve seen do the nostalgia ting correctly, every garm they drop can be linked to a certain time/memory/movement from the late 00s early 010s in London, the clothes they make are extremely nostalgic but at the same time fresh and modern.

the skep dog ears hat specifically is their best piece so far and they haven’t missed yet, since their conception in mid 2021 they have been releasing quality prints and accessories, the Genesis tee, the nerd hat, the Stevie tee, the skeenie, bro the pullover V zip hoodie rollout blew my mind. but like I said, the skep dog ears is my personal favourite of mine, it has London on lock, there’s so much nuance and cultural intricacies in that one hat, it’s a really significant piece of clothing to me, they took a cornerstone of skepta’s iconic look in his younger days and imprinted their brand’s dna on it, they payed homage in the best way possible, I didn’t grab the hat when I dropped (broke student tax) icl but It’s on my list.

everyone in peak should take a bow, they‘be cultivated an amazing brand, they’re black creativity at its peak.

what is the poop scene

I'll give some context, too, but here is what should be some of the chapter of my untitled wip that featured anxiety poops

----

Elijah went through the awful security protocols that had been sent to him in an email the length of War and Peace. He was scanned, thoroughly frisked, his bag was rifled through, pockets emptied, phone briefly confiscated, and he was sure at some point in the process, they must have taken DNA samples. By the time they finished, he was all turned around and his stomach was starting to twist around in knots.

He was sat in an empty lounge in the humanities center. He knew the lounge well. It was a large room full of old copies of school newspapers, magazines, published books of alumni and faculty, and a handful of awards the humanities college had won. They were all behind glass, lining the walls.

Elijah had spent many evenings in that lounge. Usually, students studied quietly and worked on group projects along the couches and tables. But most of the furniture had been pushed aside, and the building had been locked. In the center of the room, two overstuffed chairs had been pushed facing each other. Elijah was alone except for two beefy men in suits who stood by the doors, staring ahead.

The weight of the situation was starting to settle in. He was going to meet the prince. No matter how much Elijah was certain he hated the guy, he had never met someone so important.

The interview was his ticket to any internship he could ever want. A good internship could lead to a good job. If he pulled it off, he could be set for life.

Elijah wiped his sweaty palms on his pants. He felt ill. He wanted to finish the meeting quickly so he could find a bathroom to vomit in, but it hadn’t even started yet.

He had to do well. He couldn’t botch the interview. Everything was riding on it.

The doors opened, and Elijah’s chest seized with a single heart palpitation. He was going to die before he even got to write a single word.

Two more suited men walked in. They stepped aside once they were through the door and as they parted, the prince emerged.

He was stupidly handsome in person. It was the first thing Elijah noticed. His hair was perfectly slicked back and combed up high. He was wearing a collared shirt and a dark pullover with the school emblem embroidered on the breast.

Elijah shoved himself to his feet. His legs hit the chair, almost knocking himself back down.

He didn’t know what to do with his body as Prince Miles approached him. There had to be some tradition. Some protocol. And that was when Elijah remembered his crash course in etiquette two days before.

He bowed, too deeply, at the waist. When he lifted his head back up, Miles was smirking at him. Elijah wanted to punch him.

“You can straighten back up,” Miles said. “You don’t have to hold it for that long.”

Elijah shot back up. Miles held out his hand and Elijah took it, hoping he had wiped off most of the sweat pooling up in his palms.

“Miles.”

“I’m Elijah…. Uh, um, Your Highness.”

Miles was still smirking. He sat down, clearly enjoying Elijah making a fool of himself.

Saying fuck it to everything Elijah was supposed to do was getting tempting. He wanted to find something scandalous about Miles and write the whole story on that.

Elijah fumbled for his seat and pulled his laptop out of his bag. A blank document was open, ready for him to take notes in—inspiration for questions, ideas for the concept and direction of the article.

Miles swung one leg over his knee and leaned his head on his fist. He looked at Elijah like he was studying him. Elijah kept his head down.

“So,” Miles said, wiggling his shoulders a little. “Tell me about yourself.”

“Uh. Well. I’m interviewing you next month.”

“I know that much. And I know that you’re the editor-in-chief of the paper and at the top of your class in the journalism school. But what else do you do? Do you belong to any clubs?”

“I don’t really have time for clubs.” Elijah quickly corrected himself. “I do sometimes go to meetings for the LGBT alliance, but not all that often.”

“Your life is the paper and your schoolwork, then?”

“More or less. I also work in the writing center.”

Miles raised his eyebrows and smiled. “Admirable. Working while being a full-time student and running the wonderful paper. You’re probably the model student [school name] loves to show off.”

“Not exactly. I think they prefer the students whose parents donate buildings and art installations.”

Miles laughed. Elijah relaxed just a little.

“I won’t argue that maybe the administration here has… preferences to their more affluent students.”

“Scholarship students are kinda swept under the rug until they school can brag about how generous they are,” Elijah said. He hovered his hands over his keyboard. “What about you? What do you do around campus?”

“I had been looking into some social clubs last year.” Miles didn’t elaborate. Elijah didn’t need him to. He knew what happened last year, and he knew that this was Miles’ first semester back at school. “I was also invited into an honor society for political science students, but it’s a bit dull—don’t write that down.”

“But hearing that you called the poli-sci honor society would be such good journalism.”

“I think you’re being sarcastic.”

“A touch.”

Elijah did type up a brief note. School activities: honor society

“What about the Bowlings Club?” Elijah asked. “Your entire family has been members, but you haven’t joined yet. They invited you, didn’t they? They claimed they did.”

Miles grimaced. “The Bowlings Club isn’t exactly my scene.”

It seemed exactly like his scene. It was an exclusive club only for rich students who came from important families. When Miles didn’t join his first year, it made national news. Elijah had rolled his eyes when the articles were printed in the school paper.

“What is your scene?” Elijah asked.

“I think I just like getting to know my peers. I don’t need a social club to do that.”

“What about parties?”

“Ah. No. My publicist will not allow me to answer questions about parties.”

“But you do go to parties. We’ve all seen pictures.”

“My lips are sealed,” Miles sighed. “Don’t make me give you an NDA.” 

Don’t ask questions about parties, Elijah typed. Fine. He guess he didn’t want to cover any of that anyway.

…

Miles turned out of the room, followed by his security. Elijah packed his bag and took a moment to relax now that the room was totally empty. The meeting wasn’t as bad as he had expected. Miles seemed genuinely interested in the interview, and Elijah supposed it was something to work with.

He swung by the bathroom and almost hesitated when he saw Miles’ security standing outside. But they didn’t stop him, so he assumed he was allowed to use the facilities with His Royal Highness. [this is where I would write something about anxiety poops]

Maybe if he got lucky, he could hide in a stall until Miles left. The bathroom on that floor was large enough for anyone to sneak in and stay out of sight.

But when he pushed open the door, Miles was standing at the sinks. Or not really standing. He was slowly hunching over them, gripping the countertop like it was keeping him from totally crumbling to the floor.

Water ran out of one of the taps, and Miles was trying to reach into the stream. His face was flushed, and his breath was becoming labored as he fell closer into the basin.

“Are you okay?” Elijah asked.

Miles’ head twitched in his direction. Elijah could see now that his cheeks were red from tears.

Miles tried taking a deep breath in, but it only came out as a strangled sob. It echoed off the high walls and linoleum tiles and straight through Elijah’s chest. He had seen breakdowns before. [School name] was elite. Professors were tough. Students often curled up, breathless, at the end of every semester.

Usually, Elijah was fine at handling his friends. He gave them space and water and walked them through grounding techniques a counselor in the health center had shown him during his own panic attack.

But he didn’t dare approach Miles. He was frozen. Miles had seemed fine just a moment ago.  

The door swung open, and one security guard grabbed Elijah by the arm and began pulling him away. It wasn’t rough. It was just urgent. Elijah didn’t fight it.

Two others rushed forward to Miles and took him by the arms. Miles’ legs folded beneath him. His breathing had become raspy, like he was choking and sobbing at the same time.

The door closed in front of Elijah’s face before he even realized he was back out in the hallway. Miles’ crying was muffled now. Elijah couldn’t see his twisted, red face anymore, but he could imagine his teeth baring in pain and eyes squeezing shut.

Elijah shrugged his bag higher up on his shoulders. He tugged on the straps to tighten them and pull the weight of his books and laptop closer to him.

He probably shouldn’t wait around. He had homework to finish, and he promised to meet his staff for dinner to tell them everything about the meeting.

His boots hit the stairs leading to the ground floor. The cold air hit his cheeks when he pushed open the front doors of the building. He thought, for just a second, that he could still hear Miles’ crying.

So you're saying that, theoretically, a hoodie with a black body and a plaid hood, with rollable sleeves and a light fabric, would be the ideal transmasc garment? Maybe you could also make the kangaroo pouch plaid to match. Potentially that could do some shit with drawing the eye to it instead of the chest? idk... taking notes tho. I wonder if buttoned front vs zippered front vs pullover does anything... like, there's probably an "optimal" effective-yet-comfortable curve obscuring garment somewhere between the dysphoria hoodie and the flannel, right? Splicing their DNA in my evil lab... Thanks for these informative posts, OP! (not transmasc myself, but have like at least 5 transmasc friends lol. Love trans dudes, it's somehow joyful seeing others find joy in that which I couldn't, like... yes, welcome to Guyville, I'm looking to move out but I'm glad others enjoy it here! You can have my house, furniture and other spare stuff when I go! The door shuts a little funny tho, let me show you how to close it right... omg, gifts from your old place in Galtown? You shouldn't have! I'm actually gonna move there myself! Let's stay in touch!)

team hoodie or team flannel?

this is all just my opinion, what works for me will work differently for you

DNA Pullover

It's done!!

I love how it came out - I made SO many modifications to the fit. The sweater was written for a boxy, typically-male silhouette, and I am Not That. I shortened the arms and regraded their shaping, widened the body, and moved the shoulders in by a few inches to fit my frame.

The shoulders fit bang-on on top of my actual shoulder, which is so exciting, and the sleeve cap fit perfectly into the shoulder, too. I put a lifeline in when I knit the first shoulder cap to make sure I could rip it back out if it didn't fit, but I didn't need to!

Overall, absolutely happy with this sweater. It's super comfy, and the yarn (High Desert Worsted from KnitPicks) is suuuuper soft and cozy.
