Socks To Go
Cast on a new pair of socks with Regia yarn, "Happy in Pink" colorway.
This new pair will accompany me tomorrow to the Guild SLO meeting so I can keep my hands busy knitting - around and around - while I enjoy this month's presentation:
“SAKIORI WEAVING” with Amanda Robinette. Sakiori (which simply means ‘rag-
weaving’) was a technique practiced by the Japanese peasant class for 200 years.
For cultural and environmental reasons, they developed this art to produce warm
clothes, not rugs as is more typical in the Western style of rag weaving. This talk
will explore how to implement Sakiori techniques to produce practical, beautiful
results.
