Out of the Ordinary

Month: May 2009

  • Knitting in the garden : playing, actually

    IMG_9574 Bottles upended on bamboo sticks sway in the wind and give a delicate chime amidst the bird song.

    IMG_9569 Using some nice weight tawny wool,  casting on six stitches,  knitting four rows with needles ranging from the (almost)  smallest  to the  (almost) largest  ….

    IMG_9568 …  and then using arms as knitting needles (75 mm perhaps?) –

    IMG_9575 results in a length of knitting that shows the interaction of wool and needles,  that gives the chance to watch and feel the process,  that stretches the moment.

    Shadows dance.
