:: all shades of grey ::

This week there is a lot of knitting going on and a lot of progress, but not much of that I can expose yet. So here is a small finished object for your Habu Indulgence. Interest and awareness to their unique products seem have boosted recently and that's great! But I hear this amazing kit has been temporarily sold out in many places and even Habu Textiles store itself is waiting on a shipment of fresh ones. But don't lose your hope yet, you may just do as well, but getting a cone of A-20(silk wrapped stainless steel) and a cone of A-33 (fine merino wool). And using one needle size (I used US6 instead of all 4 recommended various needle sizes) I knit a rectangle scarf, 60% of which using both yarns and 40% using silk wrapped stainless steel. Hand felt it in a sink and stretched it a bit, as it has shrunk. Because those fiber materials are so unique you can give it any shape you desire later, you can consider it as a play dough, experiment with it, make it a wearable piece of art!



Speaking of art or distantly reminded by it, a woven/knit/sewn project is coming along nicely, but is taking some thought as other details are invented as I go. Any guesses what it might be?
