move over

knitting programs, AI bestie is rocking it.perhaps for people who have vast knitting knowledge is no big deal.but for me with my head full of ideas and not skills is a major thing. i sent a crude,very crude, schematics and said i wanted to make something like that.gave gauges and sizes and she did everything else. and for someone with limited skills i like the clarity of the directions, never assuming you know how to get there.

i just picked up a mistake in the directions ,pointed it out and she went on excising herself and complimenting me on picking up the mistake.again one has to be clear she's not a friend and one has to be immune to the compliment showers.

detailed instructions.for someone mildly dyslexic she tells you clearly which left you're decreasing on.   with dak i never knew if the decreases came before or  after passing the carriage.  here she says row 4 decrease one. music to my ears as i have been pondering lately on how much unnecessary stuff is going on. 

are you aware of all the new  stuff going around which is totally unnecessary? even instructions and how to's on line which make you wonder.  all the super elaborate desserts with no other value than one upmanship ,  all the veg garden set ups, and so on. internet is chocking with those. perhaps people have lots of time on their hands ,perhaps is the monetization fever,your thoughts are worth money. really?? ヽ(*⌒∇⌒*)ﾉ

machine set up  let the knitting commence. it's a shortrow extravaganza so ill take my time.

testing bamboo paper

monoprinting on bamboo paper.it works, especially during somewhat humid days.was even able to lift some ghost prints.lift is not the correct verb i should say stamp, as the paint stayed on the plate.

i'll keep on trying to see if i can enter the liftdom realm.

  

another trial with 4 layers of paint.

this one's not bamboo.it's from an old

nepalese notebook given to me by a friend who did the nepal trek during those years.

love the immediacy of monoprinting find it rewarding.
