SMK IS AOK

Sampling from latest scarf endeavor. This scarf reads "SMK IS AOK" if you look carefully. And some letters are backwards I think. I apologize in advance for the weirdness of this blog post, the formatting is all janky. Looks kind of cool and wacky in here. By in here, I mean, inside of Blogger.







The yellow figures are backwards "a's" not sure why they are backwards.
The orange figures are "o's".
The black figures are "k's".



The orange figures are "s's".
The pink figures are "m's".


The purple figures are "s's".



The black figures are "i's".
The orange figures are "k's".

BIG CHUNKS ON CAMPUS




This is three-ply cotton rope from the hardware store, untwisted and knit with poles. This is before dyeing, I plan to try some home marling techniques by dyeing each of the three strands a slightly different color to give it a finer variegated technique. Maybe then experimenting with over-dyeing and bleach effects...

This started out being an easier process, and definitely yielded a larger chunk in the end. (Approximately 9 inches across and 18 inches long, made from 40 feet of rope). However, the unraveling of the rope took quite a bit of time, about 2 1/2 hours. In the case of the body scarf, I would try to order a large quantity online, unraveled.

I really like this one.

This is the kind of chunky-ness I wanted. I'm leaving town early tomorrow morning and won't be back until Wednesday afternoon, but will start dyeing the scales and rope then to see what color will do for this situation.
