I've got the impression that the people at You Knit What don't think you should ever *be* older or larger than that - or if you are, you should be ashamed of yourself and never be in photos. Sometimes they're funny, but a lot of the time, their criticism boils down to "Only older women would wear this." or "This isn't slimming." They post too much stuff that isn't outrageous, only a little weird. Or in this case, not even that.
I think that would suit you very well. Does Elann deliver to Europe? Or would you substitute the yarn?
