A Portrait of the Blogger as a Young Dork
I thought you'd enjoy what she wrote on the back of the above picture:
Anyway, my mom and I were talking about THE SWEATER! yesterday. I just so happen to have a work function this week for which I need a unicorn-themed costume. (Long story. Let's just say I'm still Team Unicorn.) Well, Mom still has THE SWEATER! around; she refers to it as "her masterpiece," for obvious reasons. Do you see where this story is going, readers? The unicorn sweater is on its way back to me! And I'm going to attempt to squeeze into it! I'm so psyched.
Now I just need to get to work on making a sparkly horn and coordinating the rest of my ensemble. Back when the sweater was first made, I used wear it to school with the cutest matching purple corduroy skirt. (Yeah, I was so stylin'.) I'll have to see what I have in my wardrobe now that will do it the same justice.
Now, before you lambaste my young personal style, remember that this was during the heyday of Lisa Frank paraphenalia.
I'm not really sure what this post has to do with sewing, but there you have it. GO TEAM UNICORN!!!!

When I was in second grade, a class project was to create an educational poster about an animal, and then give a short talk presenting your poster to the class--where your animal lived, what it liked to eat, that kind of thing. I chose...the unicorn. And produced a poster, complete with citations from a bestiary (bless my then-librarian mother), all about the unicorn's natural habitat and migration patterns. I think this anecdote alone is a pretty perfect summary of just how dorky a little kid I was.ReplyDelete
I was oddly enough just thinking about Lisa Frank stuff the other day... I forget what prompted it, but I was musing over how in love I was with all the brightly colored illustrations! That merchandise was such a hot commodity among my middle school-age pals. ;) lol.ReplyDelete

Oh, you look so sweet and happy! I hope it'll fit you!ReplyDelete
I don't know Lisa Frank (I'm from Australia, mate) but I do know that My Little Pony has a unicorn one. Love that jumper, make another purple skirt! And we want photos.ReplyDelete
I can't believe you found that picture! I still love that sweater and I don't care what anyone says - you were not dorky - you were adorable. Only a mother can say that! The sweater will be on its way this morning!ReplyDelete
Awesome sweater! I managed to find somewhere selling the pattern (it's in #517, Kids Knits http://www.buggsbooks.com/patons.html) Yes, I am a knitting dork..ReplyDelete
Gertie, don't hate me, but I must instruct your readers that they supersize that unicorn sweater pic by clicking on it. And enlarge it further by clicking on THAT (at least on my computer).ReplyDelete
Still not big enough for me -- I want poster-size -- but better for close viewing of details. A work of art!
My little girl has a unicorn fetish too!ReplyDelete
She draws them all the time and will probably cry when she see's your jumper, or at least demand I make one!
SO AWESOME. I can't wait to see what you do with it.ReplyDelete
I have a unicorn story you might appreciate.
So I too, am of the Lisa Frank trapper keeper with neon hearts and unicorns era and when I was in second grade my best friend Tricia, and I had matching ambitions to grow up and get Unicorns for y'know general unicorning purposes. When adults would ask what we wanted to be when we grew up, we'd always reply with "A Unicorn" in awesome kid deadpan to see what they would say. I will say that I loved them, but she LOVED them. Anyway, the following year she went to different school due to rezoning and we fell out of touch.
Seven years later and we met up again in history class on the first day of high school. My last name is Byrd and hers is Caldwell so of course we were seated next to each other. We were happy to see each other, but I had grown into a trash-talking pink-haired obnoxious faux punk and she was a raging band nerd with clarinet tshirts blazing so yeah, we didn't have much in common.
Anyway, after about a month of classes we got comfortable talking again (meaning I got over my badass self) and asked her, hey remember when we were kids and we'd tell people we were going to be unicorns when we grew up? and she looked straight at me, and replied, "Actually, I still am planning on that".
talkin' bout my generation. We must be the same age...I too was obsessed with unicorns (didn't Rainbow Brite ride one? Wasn't there a My Little Pony unicorn or two). That sweater is indeed a work of art. What a feat!ReplyDelete
You were so adorable! And your sweater so cute.ReplyDelete
How neat that you were able to dig up that photo.
You looked adorable in The Sweater^^, my mum made me a few of these animal/character themed homemade sweaters when I was a kid and she still has them too! And at least you keep your unicorn love for costume parties, I actually walk out with Hello Kitty clothes/stuff on me :)ReplyDelete

Rainbow Bright's horse, Starlight, wasn't a unicorn but did have a gold star on his head.ReplyDelete
She-Ra's horse, Swift Wind, had a unicorn horn (but not when she was untransformed, plain ol' Adora). I was never sure if it was a real unicorn, however, as on the toy the horn was just a part of the bridle.
(I'm allowed to know all that because of my husband and I's long quest to dig up old 80s cartoons for our kids to watch. also I'm a major dork.)
I was Team Dragon, personally (is there a Team Dragon? I hope so) but I did make a lovely filet-crochet of a unicorn during high-school. If I can find it I'll take a picture.

Good ol' Lisa Frank. I could never decide if I liked her stuff better, or all that strawberry-scented Sanrio junk ... can't wait to see you in THE SWEATER!ReplyDelete
I preferred my equids hornless (My Little Pony, and then Breyers, which are a whole other hobby world unto themselves), but, buy, do I remember Lisa Frank!ReplyDelete
Somewhere, in boxes of old clothes I have a lilac unicorn sweater, too... only it's a RTW unicorn print. My sister wore it, too. And I had lots of the Lisa Frank stuff, I still have a trapper keeper around in boxes of school supplies with a unicorn scene on it, and there's a unicorn blanket wadded up at the foot of my bed right now. (It's warm!) So, Gertie, you're not alone.ReplyDelete
I think it's the age bracket. All of us girls growing up in the 80s and 90s had unicorn obsessions, partially brought on by mass marketing. Unicorns were everywhere for a while there!
Ah, Lisa Frank. I had a bunch of her stuff. And remember the Sophistocats? I had a Sophistocats Trapperkeeper with a big Siamese cat on it.ReplyDelete
That stuff is probably due for a hipster-ironic come back.
- dmattsonOctober 25, 2010 at 9:54 AM
Ahead of your time--check out the sweater on pp.28-29 in the Twinkle Sews book.ReplyDelete
I REALLY hope there will be a gold-horned, unicorned sweater, superbly styled photo in our near future! :) I love THE sweater!ReplyDelete
If I had gone to school with you, I would have been so jealous! I was just telling someone the other day how I would like to have my own unicorn. Of course I also come from the Lisa Frank era.Can your mom make me one?ReplyDelete
- AnonymousOctober 25, 2010 at 10:40 AM
that sweater is amazing and you should wear it every day with pride !ReplyDelete
Oh you're adorable! I love dorks and young dorks in particular. I'd forgotten how...loud Lisa Frank was, and yet I can clearly remember the feeling of desperately wanting some folders with her designs on them but knowing that my mom would say that the plain ones work just as well.ReplyDelete
You might be over the whole sewing scenes in movies yesterday, but I watched a lot of TV yesterday and the Corpse Bride was one and they had a cute scene with some spiders helping Victor patch up his suit in the song "The Wedding Song": http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6-srbkpKCxQ
Oh, wow, that really brings back the 80s in a rush of neon, scrunchy socks, and unicorn posters...and earrings, and t-shirts, and school binders, and birthday cakes...ReplyDelete
Hey, I think I still have that poster in the basement. And the jewelry. I think I've managed to purge most of the 80s fashions.
It's kind of comforting to know that a style maven like you was once as dorky as I was.
This is soo funny! But I can't say I wasn't also obsessed with Lisa Frank though too.ReplyDelete
I still have my sticker book collection. It's a hit when I babysit my sister's girls.
I love unicorns in an ironic way. But secretly really love them. So much that I have been a unicorn twice for halloween. Who can resist dressing up as a magical creature? My Unicorn Costumes!!! I think I would be a unicorn again... except that my friend is using the headpiece for a my little pony costume.ReplyDelete
Oh my goodness. You need to play Robot Unicorn Attack!ReplyDelete
Set to the sweet 90s gem "Always" by Erasure.
I wonder if Lisa frank is making a comeback? I just saw something if hers last week and I was all nostalgic for a bit. Enjoy "the sweater" part 2!ReplyDelete
Wow, I haven't thought about Lisa Frank in a long time! When we purchased school supplies for grade school, my mom would only let me choose one Lisa Frank folder because they were so much more expensive than the plain colored ones. So I had to decide which subject was special enough for that folder.ReplyDelete
I love the sweater -- that is some impressive work by your mom!!
I had everything in Lisa Frank. Oh man. Backpack, folders, binder. I even had pencils and erasers. I enjoyed the unicorns, but found that I gravitated more towards the Lisa Frank horses.ReplyDelete
Wow...Lisa frank. That's a reference I haven't heard in ages. Please post the photo of your work outfit, and the story of why you must dress unicorn themed...ReplyDelete
Ah, Lisa Frank. My mom still has my sticker album, organized by category, with a whole section devoted to unicorns. I spent all my allowance on stickers... And now I spend it on fabric. So, yes, still a dork.ReplyDelete
I'm too old for Lisa Frank--for me, unicorns mean Peter Beagle's The Last Unicorn. Or, now, this splendid offering from Think Geek: Avenging Unicorn PlaysetReplyDelete
But it is a beautiful sweater!
Yes! I was (am) totally Team Unicorn. Unicorns, but also carousel horses; they're just so darn whimsical! I definitely made a unicorn latch hook in elementary school. Unicorn. Latch hook. Nerdiness upon nerdiness. Your sweater is stirring up much jealousy :)ReplyDelete
You were soooo adorable! Loving the unicorn. that is a mighty jumper your momma knitted you I'm tres impressedReplyDelete
I love the sweater and photo so much I can't stop looking at it. Adorable most!ReplyDelete
yay team unicorn! I love Lisa Frank, now that I passed through the obligatory "I no longer find that cool b/c I am too grown up for that" phase. I love that sweater and think you should still try to wear it. melina beeReplyDelete
^^^please look at this page (especially toward the bottom). you will die. i wish your mom would knit me THE SWEATER! because apparently I am still a dorky unicorn lover.
Love the sweater...and I've loved Unicorns since I was a young girl. Must be the artistic nature of us sewists to love this mythical creature!!ReplyDelete
Lisa Frank...my daughter couldn't get enough of those items as a young teenager as well.
Funny...one year for Halloween I sewed up a purple satin unicorn outfit with a silver/gold lame unicorn horn for her to wear...I must dig that picture up and post it.
Thanks for stirring some beautiful memories.
I hope you can fit into it.ReplyDelete
If I'd knit my little girl a sweater like that I'd have kept it too!
One of my friends appliques T-shirts and donates the money to a charity, and I custom ordered a unicorn shirt. I even added that I wanted the horn and tail to be rainbow. So I'm a 20 year old dork, but it's great!ReplyDelete
- AnonymousOctober 25, 2010 at 10:36 PM
Well, I'm (much) older than you, so missed this fad - but I think your mom's sweater is much nicer than the commercial pictures. My daughter (now nearly 13) loved "my little pony" when she was little, but has moved on. Now she likes "Charlie the Unicorn"...(google, if you don't know)... Fun posting!ReplyDelete
I'm looking forward to seeing you recreate the original photo.ReplyDelete
Hand knits are very stretchy and 80's styles were so over-sized, the sweater will probably fit just fine.ReplyDelete
I have always belonged to Team Unicorn.ReplyDelete
well... we all have our dark pasts...ReplyDelete
Go Team Unicorn! I was (and still am) a My Little Pony fangirl myself, but I can still appreciate a good love of all things unicorny. That sweater is AMAZING.ReplyDelete
Your mom is so awesome. :) This post is especially meaningful to me today as I toil away on costumes for a fancy Egyptian mummy, a dryad, and a ballerina. I feel a kinship with the Crafty Moms of the World.ReplyDelete
Rainbows and Unicorns! And sneaker roller skates! (Wheelies - pfft!) These are the things my pre-teen years were made of ("tweens" - pfft!).
I had my unicorn spiral notebook, filled with unicorn drawings (that I made while wearing my sparkle rainbow t-shirt), but I was soooo jealous of a friend from school. She had a rainbow unicorn MURAL in her bedroom. Painted by a professional artist. Filling one entire wall (the unicorn was practically life-sized). This was 1982 - WAY before the Mural in Every Child's Room movement.
My specialty was actually the extremely rare Unicorn Pegasus, Flying Past Rainbow. A horn AND wings?!? Oh, yeah.
- AnonymousOctober 27, 2010 at 12:03 AM
OMG, I knit two of those sweaters for my girls, one pink background, the other lavender. You looked adorable in yours!ReplyDelete
I am/was a unicorn lover as well. Had a bunch of breakable type things all over my room of unicorns. I wanted one so bad as a kid! Love the sweater - that is just amazing.ReplyDelete
I also remember Lisa Frank and have not thought of that stuff in years - thanks for the trip down memory lane.
Unicorn's are wonderful, and I am in love with that sweater <3ReplyDelete
Unicorn's are wonderful, and I am in love with that sweater <3ReplyDelete
This post made my evening as A.) the unicorn was and is my favorite mythical creature B.) I am a knitter and C.) hello its a unicorn sweater....awesome.ReplyDelete
You are really talented. Best of luck to you and your sewing endeavors. I'm not shame to ask if you would check out my new book, "50 Ways To Make Money Sewing." Maybe this book can help add to your already successful sewing career. Take care and best to you.ReplyDelete

Pats hope to continue success without Gronkowski
The New England Patriots have done just fine without Rob Gronkowski.
So far.
On Sunday, they'll see whether that continues or if their valuable tight end's absence will keep them from a second straight Super Bowl appearance.
''Certainly, Rob is a unique player and he has some skills that allow you to do special things with him,'' offensive coordinator Josh McDaniels said Monday. ''I don't think it's really fair to say you just plug somebody in and off you go.''
Michael Hoomanawanui filled in well enough after Gronkowski broke his left arm on the Patriots' seventh offensive play of their 41-28 win over the Houston Texans in Sunday's AFC divisional playoff game.
He'll probably do it again in the conference championship game against the Ray Lewis-led defense of the Baltimore Ravens following Gronkowski's season-ending surgery Monday.
''Michael did a great job with the things we asked him to do,'' McDaniels said. ''He certainly did a good job in protection and in the running game.''
Hoomanawanui didn't catch any passes. But Gronkowski, who had 90 receptions last season and 55 in 11 games this season, had no catches in the Patriots' two games against Houston this season. And they dominated both contests.
Gronkowski was sidelined for the 42-14 rout on Dec. 10, the third of five games he missed after breaking his left forearm while blocking on an extra point late in a 59-24 win over the Indianapolis Colts on Nov. 18. He sat out the rest of Sunday's game after breaking his arm when he landed on it after catching a pass down the right sideline by Tom Brady that was ruled incomplete because Gronkowski didn't get both feet inbounds.
He had surgery on Monday, a person with knowledge of the operation said, speaking on condition of anonymity because the team has not announced the surgery.
The Patriots were 7-3 before Gronkowski was injured then went 4-1 without him. He returned for the regular-season finale, a 28-0 win over the Miami Dolphins in which he caught a touchdown pass. But he played only 25 of the Patriots' 80 offensive snaps in that game.
''We've played a bunch of games now, we've never really been fully healthy yet and obviously now won't be,'' Brady said Monday during his regular weekly appearance on WEEI radio. ''But you know what? We've still got a very good team.''
The Patriots also played without running back Danny Woodhead after he hurt his thumb while running with the ball on their first offensive play. Shane Vereen stepped in and scored three touchdowns - two on receptions and one on a run.
''That's a huge credit to our coaching staff and Tom as well, but that's what's expected of us,'' said Vereen, who had 124 total yards - 41 on seven rushes and 83 on five receptions. ''When someone goes down, you're expected to step in and do your job.''
Woodhead returned to the sidelines but never got back in the game, although coach Bill Belichick said Monday he could have played.
''Danny was examined. He was back on the sideline for the remainder of the game,'' Belichick said. ''Had we needed to use him, he would have been available to go back in there. Now that we're into a new week, we'll readdress the whole situation, try to get a good feel for what he would and wouldn't be able to do and how functional he would be doing it.''
Woodhead has been effective in a limited role. During the regular season, he had 301 yards and four touchdowns on 76 carries and 446 yards and three touchdowns on 40 receptions.
But Gronkowski is the Patriots' most important offensive player after Brady. He was hampered by a high left ankle sprain in last year's Super Bowl and made just two catches in the Patriots' 21-17 loss to the New York Giants.
But he rarely leaves the field when healthy.
He participated in 92 percent of the offensive snaps in the first 10 games this season. He played all 83 snaps in a 31-30 loss to Baltimore in the third game, and all 97 in a 31-21 win over the Denver Broncos in the fifth game, according to profootballfocus.com.
On Sunday, Gronkowski played just seven snaps then went to the bench with a look of pain on his face. He soon went to the locker room with team physician Dr. Thomas Gill. After the game, Belichick said he wasn't sure whether Gronkowski had broken his arm and that the player had received medical clearance to play.
He declined to elaborate in a conference call Monday.
Asked if Gronkowski was ''100 percent'' for the game, Belichick said, ''I covered that yesterday. He was cleared medically. I don't have anything to add to it.''
The offensive staff will get a new member when Brian Daboll is added as an assistant. Belichick said Daboll, the offensive coordinator of the Kansas City Chiefs under fired coach Romeo Crennel, would join the staff ''going forward, similar to what Josh did last year but without any specific responsibility.''
McDaniels joined the Patriots as an offensive assistant before their first playoff game last year after serving as offensive coordinator of the St. Louis Rams. McDaniels then officially took over as New England offensive coordinator when his predecessor, Bill O'Brien, became coach at Penn State.
Daboll was a defensive assistant with the Patriots from 2000-2001 and wide receivers coach from 2002-2006. He was quarterbacks coach for the New York Jets from 2007-2008 before becoming offensive coordinator for the Cleveland Browns for two years and the Miami Dolphins and Chiefs for one year each.
''Having another set of eyes with experience and (someone who) has a lot of understanding of our system and how we go about doing things, I think, is only a positive,'' McDaniels said. ''Every detail is very critical at this time of year and having another football coach on your staff to help is nothing but helpful.''
