Can't decide what they want to be yet. Both are a very fine silk-stainless steel blend yarn. For knitting geeks, the one on the right was knit on size 0 needles, the one on the left, size 0000. They are on there way to New York for this show. Hoping they will make it on time.
Today I wrote an artist statement for a submission and I don't think I went about it correctly. I found myself mostly explaining the why and the how. Here's the what, as in what I believe:
in the finely crafted
in making things by hand
in attention to materials
in experimentation
in process and the gestation of a piece
in the trial-run
in refining technique
Two subway cards, sent off last week to Single Fare in New York. I have other cards prepped and will continue to knit more over the next few months.
They look quite lovely all together. Photos by the amazing Trish Tunney. Click on the image to make it larger.
Studio time and motivation have both been scant. What I find myself doing lately is messing around with watercolors. I will scan some and post them here soon.
