It brings a bit of humor into what could be described as a rather dry piece of literature [IMO]. And some of us need the mental break.

If you have ever done a Doris Chan lace cardigan with internal increases, this will be a breeze. Everything is relative in life. About the fit: the elastic is supposed to keep it in place, it has elastic in three places, waist and the two legs.
