#Needlework : Finished square made using 'double knitting' technique and first drawing using a tablet - 261218


After quite a few false starts trialling this technique, I managed to make a coaster measuring 8.5 cm square. The resulting knitted 'fabric' is quite thick so I'm not entirely sure it's suitable for a scarf. I get the feeling it would be a bit stiff unless it's made with thin cotton or just 4 ply yarn.

It was good learning something new - I know it needs some refinement :D

I am hoping to try adding some designs so it's not so 'plain'.

As I pointed out yesterday, this video tutorial was extremely helpful.



tinygalaxy@tinygalaxy let me have a go on her new tablet. It's really cool to be able to use a digital medium to make drawings. I have got tonnes to learn still, but I'm pleased with my attempt :D
