Autumn Leaves: This is my own design for machine knitting. The top layer is in a tweed Shetland Wool and the lining in Pure New Wool. The garment is lightly padded with polyester wadding. The quilted lines are decorated with a needle lace edgeing stitch. The Flowers are also worked in Needle Lace. It has two rows of buttons and fastens with double loops.
Machine Knitting.
I have not done a lot of machine knitting but I do use it for making the fabric for felting as shown on My Felting Page. Mixing techniques is most enjoyable and you can create some interesting items. I am looking forward to starting retirement. Then I will have so much more time to do all these things that I enjoy.
Machine Knitted Then felted in the washing machine. Lace bobbins hung in and bobbin lace worked over the top.
I wear this such a lot. It is very Rustic in appearance and so very warm on a cold day when I am gardening!
