It’s all in the details

I have a new camera! It’s a Canon Powershot A570 IS, and it’s really spiff.

I have, of course, been wasting most of its battery on taking yarn detail photos, because the old camera couldn’t do such things.

Here’s the possum fur yarn, redux.

And a detail shot. Be it known I took about six of these. I’m so proud of the detail this camera can get.

Still getting used to keeping the camera still, and learning the settings for the different types of photos. But still. I’m getting the proper yarn colours to show up without massive Photoshop editing!

Monkey sock is progressing well…

And I’ve started a new babything. To be kept secret. I’ve also been working on the vest, and pulled out an old project for a little while yesterday, just to putter on…

A simple basketweave stitch scarf, knit in Rowan Felted Tweed in Whisper. I’ve been working on it for a long while, and pull it out whenever I need to take the edge off another project. It’s therapeutic. But then, isn’t all knitting?

Today I shall knit on the porch until the rain forces me not to.
