working bigger

on the blocking board. still many steps to go until  it's done.this cotton yarn is becoming my new best friend. great because i have such a lot of it.

another take on the concept.
blocking is a science in itself. that bottom
should be straight😞

golden medium

or in times of shortage its cousin amsterdam acrylic medium.
adds body, seals and does not affect metallics. patina is gorgeous also. this is a wip. more to come.

punchies

lace punch card #17. it works without any problem with this cotton yarn. theoretically cotton should be avoided due to the lack of give. happy to have found the opposite as i have two 4 kg cones.it's single so not adequate for warps.

primed with a white primer, not too happy with the way it acts with the metallic paint , turning it sort of muddy and killing the sparkle.
the patina is nothing to write home about also.
waiting to see if it re conducts itself if i leave it out in the open.the copper pipe on the terrace looks lovely.
