testing no roll edge

 and it is a royal pain , especially with lofty yarns meant for hand knitting. too many steps , most of them critical. too long and boring. i need to chant sutras or whatever. can't listen to the yama-ken video with him singing because as much as it lifts my spirits and saves me from boredom the fun part is watching him on stage. ah the ever teen ager   ｡^‿^｡

after much toil managed to finish one three more to go.it comes out as a mock rib, not sure if this system is more efficient than the traditional mock rib.

this baby

is going to turn into a pair of beautiful pants.  the pattern finished. 

the fabric is beyond awesome , a wool knit lined with a light cotton knit so that it's not scratchy on the body.

inevitably i  go short on fabric  when i buy so i can't make the japanese  jacket  pattern to go with the pants.

too little for the jacket too much as a remnant. thinking about making a dress. the skirt will be the remnant the bodice knitted.

it is an exercise in irony sewing all these clothes with a pandemic and its corresponding lockdowns going on.
