FLOWER POWER
Here is the Reverse Bloom washcloth and various 3-D flower knitting experiments, none of which really turn me on. The problem with the flowers is that I think they are not three-dimensional enough for what I planned and even though I used fingering weight yarn, I suspect what I'm wanting will require crochet cotton and lace needles. I don't like the way the petal edges look on the Reverse Bloom washcloth - I used size 3 needles and some Stahl Socka Cotton as I prefer smaller cloths.
I'm back to work on Malin from Alice Starmore's In the Hebrides and size 7 needles as I'm noticing all this fine work is getting to my eyes. Lately I do most of my knitting late at night and even the Ott-Lite isn't enough.
