doing the penelope act

this one was unraveled and now looks promising. feeling chuffed 'with the neckline.it's a sort of tabard-lovely old fashioned word.not sure about the back neckline though and need to knit the rib wich will go on the sides.not sure whether to knit a long strip or 4 individual ones.the merit goes to the beautiful yarn bought at a shop victim of the pandemic.

the aqua will obviously disapear

getting....

pretty silk, dyed with an unrememberd natural dye. perhaps shikon aka gromwell with an alkaline modifier.who remembers,who knows.

the section is already done madder orangey and this blue.

going to warp this section front to back and then  weight it individually in the back. asking for trouble? maybe.

one thing i know it is too difficult to thread from the yarn coming from the back because it is way too thin to be discernible. add frafile points to it and what do you get? the warp from hell suspended in a limbo for one year.
