Knitting Journey: The Central Park Hoodie is Finally Done!!!

I have finally finished my Central Park Hoodie. It took me a year to complete this project, but considering that I work full time, have a family etc. That’s not too, bad. It was my first ever cable knit so I learned a lot. It was also my first ever sweater and my first ever hoodie. So considering all of these firsts the journey and the sweater were well worth it. I am finalizing the buttons and of course have to do the dreaded blocking. This is the part that scares me most since I could shrink and screw it up. Photos will be posted soon.
More Video and Animation Fun

Here is a new little animation that I just finished. It is an example of rotoscoping. The hands in the paintings are mine knitting the cable cardigan (Central Park Hoodie) that I’ve been working on for many months. It brings together several of my favorites, knitting, watercolor painting and drawing and technology. It was time consuming to create, but very fun. I need to work on sound that could go with it, but for now it’s a cool little thing that I tried. I will try to post some photos of the actual knit sweater, too. It is progressing with the shoulder seams bound off together as of today. I still have the sleeves and hood to knit plus the buttons. I don’t know if I’ll finish before going back to school this fall, but I will try. Let me know what you think of the animation!
