Dan’s elbows were getting chilly in his worn-out old jumper, so we came up with the idea of these superhero elbow patches.
He drew the shapes on proportional graph paper and I swore and shouted my way through stints of shoddy darning, knitting on too-big needles and Swiss darning in the wrong sort of stitch.
Dan seems quite pleased with them though, as evidenced by his willingness to wear the jumper in public.
