We did a bunch of measuring during the workshop, of waist length, arm length, etc. and used our height to determine how long a particular style of sweater should be. The paper clothes were made by dividing by the same number that we used to shrink our selves, so everything was proportional. It was very interesting to see how a longer sweater looked with various width pants and skirt types. I think I will use this technique to design sweaters because it will be possible to see how they'll look on me.<br /><br />I do have a pile that I intend to felt, but something is preventing me from doing it. I'm going to send the pile to you, Oggy!neuroknitterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06812959161474182704noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1239532710359363459.post-56398017500552280842009-04-28T18:56:00.000-05:002009-04-28T18:56:00.000-05:00Wow, great story!

Regarding all those unfavorable sweaters - why not felt them, and make them into equally beloved pillows, or squares for an afghan?Oogyknitterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03979097145333862203noreply@blogger.com
