Most of the time I wait and make a blog post when I’ve started a new project, or when I’ve reached a significant point of progress. I thought I would wait until I had one side of this Rift finished up to the top of the neck before writing about it again, but my knitting time has dwindled, and I don’t want to wait to say hello. So, hello.
This project has gotten much more enjoyable with the armhole shaping. It has a chart. I tried to explain charts to Zooey yesterday and I’d like to think she got it a little bit. The picture makes sense with the actual item. I took these photos in the bathtub. In the late afternoon that’s the only place in the house that gets great lighting, so that’s where the sweater got it’s second photoshoot. If you want more details about the project, take a peek on my Ravelry project page.
I like this yarn. It looks like it has some tweedy bits in it. The color is up my alley. I couldn’t even tell this was a bathtub background.
Very beautiful color. It will be beautiful when it’s done.
beautiful yarn. hope to see it finished soon. i just made a lightbox for clicking good photos. never thought of the bathtub. that’s brilliant!
The window by the bathtub gets all the Western afternoon light and the shower curtain filters a bit. I’d love to learn more about using light boxes.
Hello! It is coming along so nicely. You are tremendous progress. I can’t wait to teach my little guy to knit!
I’m dying to teach Z. I gave her short Knitting needles that are different colors for learning. She calls them her “knitters” and she mostly pokes them into swatches.
Woah. And I thought “Oh no, something bad happened …”
Glad to hear that the only “problem” is the bathtub being the only place with decent light for photographing in the afternoon!
I like the colour of the sweater very much … Has Zooey picked up knitting yet? 😉 Or is she not interested in yarn at all?
I’ve never thought of the bathtub for a photoshoot but that does seem like a good idea. The porcelain seems to reflect light.
I wouldn’t have noticed that the pictures were taken in the bathtub 🙂 Your Zooeh must be a future knitter 🙂
