Patterns and shadows

I occasionally knit lacy scarves. They need to be wet stretched (blocked) on completion in order to show the patttern off properly. I keep a set of interlocking, neoprene-foam floor tiles for this purpose - they're ideal because you can pin into them over and over again without wrecking them.
They're also handy for making a fall-back shot when you run into problems with the one you'd planned for the day. :-D

Edit. 24-3 A couple of people kindly expressed an interest in my knitting, so I've posted a shot of a scarf from a few years back in another album : http://365project.org/dulciknit/other-photos/2013-03-23

What a good idea, both for knitting and a photo! Good lighting to show textures too!

The patterns and textures together with the shadows make a fascinating abstract. I had to look very closely to see how it was constructed!

[Kazzy]

Ahhh great patterns... and light and dark zones :)

[Dione Giorgio]

How interesting! Any chance of a shot of one of the lace scarves at some point? Good to see this old craft hasn't died out.

[Alison Hewitt Bailey]

@eyesmile @mercuria Thank you. I haven't done any in a while and I make them for other people, so don't have one of my own but I could put an old shot up in another album if you'd like. Hang on.....

[Matt Clendon]

Reminds me of the Giant's Causeway, Northern Ireland. It has that look about it that it'll last forever, the floor tiles that is. I do like the very well defined shadows and contrasts.
