If ever a graffiti Knit was needed!

If ever a graffiti knit was needed?, it was for the day I went to Haga Parken
(Stockholm beautiful butterfly house)
They have a a themed garden and this lady was one of the key pieces that rest there.

My 1st thought on viewing her was that she was in big need of a Graffiti knitting team.

She was life size and very naked with an awful lot of natural detail.........
(I don't mind naked, but there is a time and a place)

If the park wasn't so public, it would be hooks and dawn
(Well opening time!)
And I'm sure given an hour I could wip
up a little Tankeeni, as I think she maybe a little past a bikini;-)

Green Sleeves

Thank you to everyone who commented on my last knitting post.
It was so great to get everyone's opinions about which pattern to choose for my silk yarn.
I thought that I had made my mind up. Last night I was quite certain that I was going to knit the tank. Then I saw this picture.. and I started feeling conflicted once again.
So I guess you'll just have to wait and see which one I choose when the time comes.
Thank you again though for all of the great input and suggestions. Funny stuff.

Meanwhile. I have 2 green sleeves now.


I just have to attach them to this... and well.. Ill have another green sweater to add to the wardrobe.
Because we all know that I don't have enough of those.



It feels so good finishing this.

Octopussy/Gold Finger crochet

Gold part is a side panel(newly added)
I have edged the tentacles with green/yellow and beige mohair

Octopussy/gold finger crochet

The re-work re-do 2 (patient)
Here it is so far I added green/yellow on to the treadrils/tentacles
and then i have put a Shirley Bassy(gold finger)

I think the right singer, right song, Bond not one of my specialitys. And after all I'm only using all these names to talk about a gold crocheted panel, strange tangent I guess but hey hoe.

I have put a second layer in gold acrylic under the tentacles.
A front panel and two side panels in gold and then joined the back part of the original Vogue Buttons.
