over the weekend

practicing transferring stitches in a rather uniform way to form lacy fabrics. 

fun especially keeping the piecing of the shell sweater 

parked. anything to avoid the boring work.

the pants are also parked, these because it is a chore translating japanese patterns and following them.

i swear our spatial views differ.

more. too bad the yarn torques like crazy. it's a shame because it's such a beautiful cotton and i have a 3 k. cone.it needs to be twisted to get a straight yarn, but i have no possibilities . have been avoiding spinning and plying all my life. too many things too little time.

this month has dragged beyond infinity. let's see how february goes

beyond precious

all of them come together to create a sublime work. heian kyo splendor and  mono no aware all together.

please enjoy.

have a good weekend.

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.
