a bigger sample of the eyelet-fairisle technique. once you get the hang of putting half of the needles on hold and bringing the other half to work its not complicated, yet it entails a great deal of concentration.
as ever the technique was introduced and explained in detail by alessandrina, my knitting guru. her generosity fills volumes.
the black one is merino subject to felting and the red wool wont felt at all.
a strange creature results.
a bigger stranger creature. this is a full scale piece, not a sample.it comes with glitches which will hopefully be solved with the felting.
i am pleased in that i have two projects that i have been working on and these could be future entries to exhibits.i do not like working for exhibits if what i'm working on fits a show, great. if not pass.
