Knitted Roll Performance







Dear Readers,

A couple of weeks ago I gathered some of my fellow students for a performance. I used the knitted Roll, which has been mentioned in the Post on Friday 9th October 2009 and Monday 18th January 2010. I have been receiving few strips for the knitted Roll from some lovely knitters. Unfortunately I have been having some problems uploading my images to the blogger, so I am sorry for the delay of the images. These images are taken by Elizabeth (thank you Elizabeth), I will probably add the images which I have taken later as well.

This project is still going on, as long as we can complete a whole mile worth of knitting. So I will still happily receive more strips.

That Monday was a lot of fun, but very cold standing outside, when we were doing the performance.

I would like to give special thanks for the following people:

1. Assistant of the project:
Caiti Berry

Cameras:
Elizabeth Ralph
Valpuri Vihriala

Video Cameras:
Richard Howe

Knitters:
Odacascat
Molly the woodtagger
Valpuri Vihriala
Jesus Masso Valdes
Justyna Stula

Ryan Higgins
Helen Austin

Without you I could have not make the performance happen. Now I am thinking more things to do with the Roll, and of course grow it, suggestions are welcome.

With Love

Whoa!

Check this out, it is amazing. I have been feeling a little bit stuck lately with my work. The best cure for that is to research and look for an inspiration, and this one was pretty much the highlight of my day!

Back to life!











Ok, christmas is over and the snow what was first so nicely treating Manchester, before it turned to mush and then horrible ice, where you couldn't even walk on, is gone. It is time to get back to work and produce things again. I have been knitting a jumper and the sequin leggins are ready, altought they need some adjustments. Few things needs to be photographed and then I can update the blog with new lovely images again.

To remind you about the knitted roll project, I will put up few images about a little performance I did with it. It is a while ago, but I realized that I have not shared these images with you, so I may as well.

I hope you all had a good christmas and new years eve! My solutions is to work hard, eat well and try to take everything out of these coming months!
