My grandma unfortunately knits garments that are ill fitting, by that I mean collars that don't sit right, arms that are too short, and other such things that makes it uncomfortable to wear even if you can put it on, however I don't want to just donate or toss these items as they're made by my grandma, and frankly I don't know how long she'll be around anymore, she's already lost her ability to knit so what I have is all I'll ever have.

I can't knit, I don't know anyone else who can either, but I can sew, and if possible I'd love to rework the sweaters into something wearable, or maybe even a scarf or a blanket! I'm coming here to ask for help on how to do this, such how can I keep it from unraveling? Is sewing down some fabric on the inside/back of it enough to keep it secure? Any tips, tricks, and ideas, are greatly appreciated!

I'm making some cyberpunk-ish clothes and accessories for a festival I'm going to, I don't fully know the weather yet, but there's also the risk of having booze spilled all over me, so I need methods to keep whatever's powered on safe!

Since I'm diy-ing it all I can probably wrap the wires and all the stuff in some waterproof materials before installation, but I need something see through to allow the lights to show through, as well as flexible. None of the parts need to be replaceable, other than the powerbank I'll be using to plug it all into, so it doesn't matter if I have to destroy the waterproofing to access the items.

Har en katt i nabolaget som har gått rundt med avføring i bakenden siden jul, det sitter inngrodd i pelsen bak, jeg kjenner til eier og har sagt ifra til både eier og varslet mattilsynet flere ganger, men det er ikke noe tegn til bedring med katten, så dette har da ikke blitt tatt tak i på 5mnd. Hva mer kan jeg gjøre for å hjelpe? Hvor ellers kan jeg henvende meg for at stakkars katta skal få det bedre?

Edit: Eieren bor rett over gangen og er alvorlig psykisk syk, og i tillegg har jeg hund som katta er livredd for (den har vært inne hos meg noen kalde dager der den satt mjauende utafor), så jeg kan ikke ta til meg katten selv. Mulig jeg kan få fanget den og brakt til dyrlege hvis jeg får til dette strategisk, da naboen er dessverre også aggressiv og har jevnlige sinneutbrudd, så hvis de finner ut at jeg har tatt katta vil jeg være utrygg i mitt eget hjem, så for min egen trygghet og velferd er det best at jeg kan forbli anonym i saken.
