Strangely, just when escalators have unwittingly found their way into the political scene, my very next row on this sweater of a DC Metro Station (which is not intended to be political) will include an escalator #knitting #sweater #dcsubway #dcmetro #subway #train #escalator

Yes!

My cherry blossom sweater that I knitted. Made in honor of the DC cherry blossoms, where I have worn it several times. #knitting #sweater #cherryblossoms #cherryblossom #cherryblossomtree #cherryblossomfestival

My sweater that I knitted of no particular place. I had in mind the mountains of the Far East. But I later found it resembles many other places, including Lake Morey in Vermont. This is Noro yarn, which has an unpredictable outcome. #knitting #sweater #mountains #autumncolors #fallcolors #vermont

Thank you so much!!! Indeed they do!

Very nice!

Thank you so much!!!

My Stonehenge sweater that I knitted. The first I made specifically for a trip overseas somewhere after I had the idea of wearing sweaters at their respective landmarks. I visited the location and got this picture in 2014. #knitting #sweater #stonehenge #wiltshire

My Frogger sweater that I knitted. First sweater representing a video game. I played the game often when I was a child. #knitting #sweater #frogger #frog #frogs

My mushroom sweater that I knitted. Made of 100% alpaca yarn. While I had the idea for a mushroom sweater long before, I was inspired to get started after meeting a woman wearing a mushroom print dress who suggested it to me. #knitting #sweater #mushroom #mushrooms #fungus #fungi

My Hong Kong skyline sweater that I knitted after my visit to Hong Kong 13 years ago. Haven’t had an opportunity to pose there with it, but created this image with an app. Picture (by itself) appears on the cover of the novel I wrote 12 years ago called The Masses. #knitting #sweater #hongkong

Explaining the elements of the state fair themed sweater I am working on #knitting #sweater #fair #statefair

Totally agree! I saw some of them.

My Thailand inspired sweater that I knitted. Based on some of the landmarks I saw in Thailand. Worked on it during my Far East trip and finished it after. #knitting #sweater #thailand #thai #bangkok

I do it on the fly. I look at pictures of the landmark online.
