Hey, did you see that Lion Brand has a free pattern that incorporates shibori technique? Quelle sophistication! Now for the next big thing we can all see coming: shibori with Fun Fur.
ps - Angela graciously tagged me for the meme where you show your knitting spot... phabulous photo coming soon, after exams!
Posted by jess at December 11, 2005 6:26 PMThe thing that gets me, is that LB has a yarn that is ... 100% WOOL!!!!!!
Posted by: valentina at December 12, 2005 6:17 AMWow, one intriguing pattern. LB is chalked full of so much hideous stuff, how did you find this? LOL
Posted by: Roxanne at December 12, 2005 7:05 AMI bought a book on Shirbori ages ago. Never did anything with it, but now I'm motivated again.
Posted by: Gina at December 12, 2005 10:42 AMI'm fascinated by the whole shibori thing - although apparently not fascinated enough to get off my chair and buy rubber bands and plastic balls and whatnot and actually give it a try.
Posted by: MeBeth at December 12, 2005 12:50 PMooh la la! LB has certainly become tre chic as of late, non? You know they have a cashmere blend yarn coming out as well? They're going cuts over there, I say.
Posted by: Sandra at December 12, 2005 11:09 PMHa! This looks just like the scarf in interweave. I think that with one of their shibori techniques they used milk jug caps. Then you wouldn't have to buy plastic balls.Did you see that they have a chain scarf: http://cache.lionbrand.com/patterns/klsu-chainScarf.html too? Look's like Teva Durham's from Loop-D-Loop. They also have a lot of new yarns.
