this is why i spend +than 10 hours at the knitting lab!

just wanted to share some progress with you...
Ive been knitting the "REAL" pieces... 
AND spending TTOOOO much time at the "dungeon" (aka: knit lab)

(there are no windows down there, and its like a VORTEX)
at least I'm happy with the results and- my teacher said im knitting "a masterpiece"

look2/proto#2

Ladies and gentelmen.. on this rainy rainy night in NYC... 
I introduce to you PROTO #2 x look 2 of my thesis project.

I finally finished draping it, the back part was difficult to figure out because I had too many ideas running through my head!
Putting it on pattern and re-sewing it felt good, now its like I am working with a blank canvas
- I can transform it!-
wee!
i also had fun taking pictures of it!

look1/edited proto

perfecting a prototype is a LONG process. next monday we have a meeting with our critic: Reiko Weiss from theory. and a model fitting. 
here is an update:


this is the top back of the proto the night before class/we had a "deadline" of 1 finished drape the next morning!


 and this is what happens in class:
professor tells me to slightly move my princess line, for a more "flattering" effect
on the picture at right, you get an idea of what the real fabric will look like!

sleevedetail. will have elastic

 this is super exciting. 
I changed the back a bit, and continued with the felted roots back thing... 
its"growing"on me!
