I am knitting something black. Again, I have picked a difficult colour to photograph. This is a wrap, as you can see, I have started the back piece. This picture was taken in the morning and by now I have 8 repeats, almost a half of the back.
Lõng on mohäär, mille sain Robinilt, lisaks on nimetu viskoosi-nailoni segu Pronksi poest. Too viimane on mingisuguse tundmatu Itaalia vabriku jääk, pooli peal, sildilt loeb vaid nimi Monique, metraaži pole.
The yarn is mohair that I have got from Robin and some unknown rayon-nylon blend from the Pronksi yarn shop. The latter yarn is a remnant of some obscure Italian factory production, sold on bobbin, the sign says just Monique and no yardage indicated.
Teadsin varemgi, et mohääri ja viskoosilõnga ühendus on päris hea. Nüüd sain proovida. Viskoos annab raskust ja koepind langeb ilusti, mida ongi ürbi jaoks vaja. Annab ka reljeefsust. Jämedam on viskoosi-nailoni segu ja peenem lõng on mohäär. Loodan, et saan lähipäevil nädiata rohkem ja kindlasti kirjutada konstruktsioonist.
I have known that mohair and rayon combination yields a good result. Now I had a chance to try it. Rayon gives heaviness and the fabric drapes well, exactly what you need in a wrap. It gives stitch definition as well. Rayon-nylon blend is the thicker yarn and mohair is the thinner one. I hope to be able to show more tomorrow and to write some words about the construction, for sure.

This looks like such an interesting texture and intriguing combination of yarns.
Hyvät kuvat olet onnistunut saamaan, vaikka lanka on kin mustaa. Nyt olet jo varmaan saanut koko selkäkappaleen valmiiksi!
Very interesting! will look forward for more info.
Robin, thank you!
Helena, ei kuva ole valitettavasti selvä, mutta auttaa se, että olet nähnyt neuleen. Juu, nyt on selkäkappale valmis ja aloitin jo toista etukappaletta!
Lidia, thank you! Hope to have an update soon.
