In Perspective

I got an e-mail today, from Megan at Arcadia Knitting, that the Playboy issue was out, and they color corrected my sweater. I found the cover by way of a Google search, and could see by the sleeves on the sweater tied around the model's shoulders, that it was not the one I had knit. A call to the sylist confirmed that they had not used the sweater. It may appear one day in a shot that would be on the member's web site. So it sits in the closet at Playboy. I think I came close to the tear sheet that they presented. Having been a photo stylist myself, I realized that there was always a possibility that the garment wouldn't be chosen for the shoot. The cover that resulted is not anything like I would have imagined, but it does look cute. My sweater would have looked great with the argyle hose the model is wearing. So, no photo credit. Putting this all in perspective, I'm asking myself, does my Lucky Penny customer read Playboy? Probably not. There's so many other good things happening right now, that I won't let this get me down.
