The University of Michigan apparel store was switching, so the former store had all the items on their website listed on clearance. I went a little crazy. I now own Michigan fuzzy dice (but they’re not in my mirror because they totally flop around), a Michigan softball, and a bunch of other clothing paraphernalia.
I acquired this beautiful size M Michigan Alumna sweatshirt (I didn’t know that alumna was the feminine singular of alumni. I thought it was alum!) and the fit was just totally off.
Totally, totally off.
Luckily, with the help of my sewing machine, I can now wear it with even more Michigan pride. I added a little bit of gray t-shirt fabric to the sleeves and the same fabric to the hips to make them longer.
Rawr. I’m a model if you know what I mean and I do my little turn on the catwalk. I fill up the entire doorway with my stance. and I’m wearing tights like pants.
The back. Wait, no, that’s just me figuring out how to use the timed settings on my camera and failing.
There’s the back! I have a seam running down the back. I think it adds to the aesthetic appeal of the sweatshirt.
‘What is that girl wearing on her head?!’ you may ask. Well, friends, it’s an anthro-inspired headband. I used it as part of my Psyche costume but kind of like how it looks in general. And since I don’t knit, I have to use up my oodles of yarn somehow! Some would even say that it looks like a sweatband. That means it goes perfectly with my sweatshirt.
Happy sweating!
