Apparently, I am really, really horrible at keeping up with blogs posts. Wow. It's been a couple of months, so maybe it's about time we get into something else! I know I keep SAYING I will post a tutorial on how I do my graphing, and I PROMISE as soon as my children are quiet enough for me to talk without them shrieking in the background, I will. Luckily, the oldest starts school this fall so MAYBE I'll be able to get into a decent schedule of things? *desperate laughter* Anyway, I've been making some things, as always.
I worked very, very hard on this one and am very, very proud of this pattern so I'm going to get right down to bragging for y'all. 17 sizes. S E V E N T E E N fucking sizes! YAS. AND a photo tutorial. So because there are so many sizes, there are a few pages. But I've included a table of contents so you know which page you need to go to, and which pages to print out for your size. The other reason that I am so proud of this piece is because, not only is it my most size inclusive, it has a message. Scrolling through my social media, I see various versions of the same question:
"Do I weigh too much to wear a crop top?" "Am I too old to wear a crop top?" "I'm a mom, is it okay to wear a crop top?" "IS IT OKAY TO WEAR A CROP TOP?"
Now, sure, this is a halter top, but it's pretty short. This is my answer to that. I don't believe telling plus sized person to put down their fork is right. I don't believe telling a petite sized person to eat a burger is right. If someone can't fix something in 10 seconds, like smudged mascara, or food in their teeth, or their skirt tucked up in their underwear... Then "get fucked". Don't like it, don't look. People scream about body positivity but then go on about health. You don't know what kind of health a person has by looking at them. Why can't a person just feel cute without being torn down? I could rant forever but I have things to do, and you probably do too. So, here's some more photos of my in this top. <3
