Yeah?…or nay?

When you design something, you have this picture in your mind of how it is going to come out. But even if you do everything exactly like you planned, it doesn’t always look exactly like what you had in mind. Case in point…
The closure – yes? no? Am I just hung up on what I expected it to look like? or do I need to go to plan B? Does it look stupid at first glance? or does it look balanced in a masculine sorta way?
I have it lying on the table where I can glance at it as I walk by it at various times during the day. I’m hoping either it will grow on me or I will decide it really doesn’t look right and it will occur to me what might work better.
Ah, the joys of designing…
Looks fine to me. I don’t see any reason to change it, but I am admittedly not the “queen” of knowing what is in and looks good.
Hi there… I love the sweater! If you want it to look more masculine, however, my immediate thought was to change to actual buttons. Lay some over top of the bobble buttons you have there and see what you think…I”m thinking light or dark wood-type or leather-type depending on the season this is meant for. (didn’t read back to check if you’d ID’d the yarn). You might also find a fun motif or kid-type button out there like kites or such. Most importantly have fun with it! Don’t let it drag you down…
