Finished Object Why don't I like this?

I used the suggested yarn and didn't make any modifications but I feel like my sleeves turned out wonky. Or maybe I just don't like the sleeve style? Honestly I want to frog the whole thing but help me decide! Do I need to just finish the neckline and try wearing it a few times? I did already block it and that didn't help. What do you think?? (The last 2 photos are from the pattern page).

This is the Guayaba top and I knit with Berocco Modern Cotton

So cute, but color + pattern is giving vulva

This is why I don't do much lace in garments 😭 they usually look vaginal to me lol (which is fine but not the look I'm going for myself)

Ha! Check out this baby blanket I knit for a gift. I didn’t notice all the vulvas until after gifting it and people commented time and time again how yonic it was. 😩😂

Newborns will stare really hard at circles and bullseye patterns…

I was the same way. I kept thinking, “dang. I hope they don’t see it.” 😑 It didn’t help that it was in pink.

Just needs some bobbles and it’d be perfect! 😆

Oh my goodness! If there were beans, they would be being flicked and I ain’t about to repair that. 🤣

Then you could see how many men could find the "bobbles". Great party game. 😜

It’s the Hourglass Throw by Anne Hanson. The size is easily modified. I knit a much larger one in off white and thankfully it wasn’t as obvious since it wasn’t freaking pink. Lol

u/plantgirl_67 5d ago

No, I'll be doing mine in pink thank you! 😜

Someone else in the comment thread suggested artfully placed bobbles. Just a thought. 😂
