This week we are learning curves and contours. It was the best week yet. Most interesting
It is a real challenge creating the right curvature on the knitting machine. We started by making oval and ellipse shapes. Using sock heel technique we created bust shapes. We also used various darts using short rowing and moving over stitches to make bust shapes. So many possibilities. We continued to make lot of samples. Each time using an other method like poinntelle and closed fashioning.
We also knitted circular sections using various way of short
rowing, increasing and decreasing methods.
This is the playing with shaping
Some more experimenting
We knitted various textures using all the above technique.
We had such a great time playing with all these great techniques
Two more week to go
Above is adding new different yarn using
short rowing.
Same technique as on other sample
only different placement
How cool is that
I will not delete this photo because
I just might deleting the complete blog again.
I am new at this.
