Wonder Woman: The sweater

This sweater, or jumper as the English call it, is a super tribute to Earth's mightiest lady hero, Wonder Woman. Yes, it is freaking cool.

The designer Kirsty created the pattern out of a basic design in an old Woolworths catalog from the 70's. She worked on the sweater for 14 months. That's fierce.

The sweater has proven very popular and has turned Kirsty into something of an internet celebrity among knitters, geeks and fashionistas. She has been bombarded with numerous requests for the pattern.

Personally, I think she's missing a big opportunity here to make a few bucks, or pounds as the case may be. The demand is there, it's her call on the supply.

Regardless of her decision it is nice to see someone's skill and creativity be so appreciated. Congrats on a job well done, Kirsty. Visit her blog for detailed info on the creation or just to give her some kudos.

Oh, Kirsty, If you decide to market them I'll take one for the wife.
