    In such a situation (which I've definitely been in before), you can generally improvise a decent device to at least hold your sleeves together out of a bobby pin. This of course works best if you're wearing a black shirt so you can just have it fade into the background, but it is something I've needed to do.

    That is a good idea, but I sure as heck don't have bobby pins either.

    Oh

    Right

    That model is not nearly hairy-armed enough to be Crwth.

    If only that was the norm. Most leggings skim over and smooth bumps and lumps but some leggings are made of material that is too thin to do this and it is very unfortunate.

    Leggings have been fashionable since Autumn here, I unfortunately see the latter a lot. Especially the girl I work with, but I will not say anything to her because she is twice my size and bulldozer me or something, despite her being shorter than me.

    I think I could maybe work the leggings and short dress thing, my legs are okay I think, but I'm not sure I've the confidence when its this cold outside and everyone is bundled up.

    Sheri, is there anything you can't knit? I love your creations :D

    I have thick tights, they work well when it's Autumn/Spring and not too cold. I love the look of black tights, heels and a coat over the skirt and so on, looks classy.
