concepts _ designing

playing around with accessory designs and also thinking and trying our base layers of garments. it's all just a bit of experimenting at this stage .

it was exciting coming up with each and then i accidentally clicked on the original designs layer and it happened to work. ahh, the joys of photoshop layers .

THANK YOU :DD

experimentation _ getting my head around knitting

I AM MAKING PROGRESS !!! YEY !!!!

it took me a while to find out and learn how to do the purl stitch but it has happened and i have finally been able to experiment a bit more with the types of stitches. as you can see though, my knitting skills are still absolutely shocking, i keep missing stitches... and especially when i attempted the rib stitch, i just couldn't seem to count properly and would do the wrong stitch... or actually completely forget that i am rib stitching and stitch extra stitches as one type .

it sure was confusing, but after three days, i think i am finally getting my head around it .



i also noticed that the knitting left a hanging piece that is the beginning and end of the knitted piece... i think i could use that as a design feature. i am unsure if someone has already done it but i think it's quite neat. almost a little quirky. which is what i like !!
