Isometric

for Rib Magazine No. 3 | Alchemy

A modular, geometric scarf, made up of straight lines that meet to create diagonals. The scarf is built out of two repeating blocks, knit with only vertical and horizontal ribbing. Each block is an isometric transformation of the other – a horizontal reflection and a vertical translation. The scarf features an I-Cord cast-on, bind-off as well as narrow I-Cord selvedges.

  • Here is the Koushi I knit for myself a few months ago in Drops Belle. It’s all soft and wrinkly and with baggy elbows cause I’ve been wearing it all the time. ▪️ ▪️ ▪️ #amirisu #amirisu18 #knittersofinstagram #knitweardesign #knittinglove #koushisweater #dropsbelle
  • I stand with all those who speak up and take a stand against discrimination and racism. That includes but is definitely not limited to Ravelry. I only post here like once a month so it feels a bit rich to be making statements about a community I sometimes struggle to stay a part of, but when I read about the awful things so people have been put through this week, this past half-year (and longer, obviously), I just wanted to be clear.
  • The new amirisu magazine, issue 18, comes out today, and this is my contribution, Koushi ▫️▫️▫️▫️ This sweater was initially inspired by gingham, and the way threads in two colours are woven to make a third. Except instead of colours, I used textures: smooth stockinette and a really textured eyelet, with double moss stitch as the in-between. And instead of a tiny all-over pattern, I made the blocks as big as they could be. A quarter of the sweater, a whole sleeve... It’s interesting to knit something asymmetrical, and it’s even nicer if you get mid-round fatigue and get a bit bored of working the same stitch for too long 😛 @amirisushop it’s been a huge pleasure and you've outdone yourselves with this beautiful issue once again, thank you. #amirisu #amirisu18 #knittersofinstagram #knitweardesign #knittinglove #koushisweater #darumayarn
  • So many yarn scraps and yet somehow not nearly all of my yarn scraps. . . #knittersofinstagram #scrapknitting #yarnscraps #scrapyarn
  • I made a coat! 🎉 Just in time for spring! 😂 I bought the fabric from someone on marktplaats, the lining and the outer together. The colour and the fabric itself are both a little lighter than I’d have picked out in a shop but I like it, and it was convenient, cheap, and second hand ✌️ The pattern is Burda 116 11/2015. It’s a women’s tall pattern which I am not, so I shortened the upper body, and also skipped the waistband though I did add this depth back to the lower body to keep it knee length. I modified the vent to a normal style because it would have been way too high as drafted without the waistband. I also added not one, not two, but four inner pockets, because the outer pockets are quite shallow (could have seen that coming but I skipped them on my toile 😑) and a woman needs to be able to carry her belongings and seditious writings of course. . . . . #diyfashion #sewing #burdastyle #isewburdastyle @burda_style #handmadewardrobe #diyfashion #memade #handmadestyle
  • Uuhh yeah! My Rumo cardigan is in the MDK March Mayhem bracket 😮 I see many patterns and designers I’ve admired this past year in the cardigan category alone, this is pretty amazing 😁 Very honoured to be in the company of such talented designers. #mdkmarchmayhem #masondixonknitting #knittinglove #knittersofinstagram #rumocardigan #knitburo
