I've made a duct tape foot and have purchased enough for a torso, but haven't yet blocked out the time or assistance to make it. Maybe a duct tape dummy party is in order!RogueTesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06116704644971308300noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19165611.post-72894063471444639722007-05-15T08:07:00.000-05:002007-05-15T08:07:00.000-05:00It looks great, nice color!

I think you should let the Tilli Thomas people know about the many knots, because if they plan to sell a quality, and not inexpensive yarn, then it should not have so many knots.<BR/> <BR/>Congrats on a great FO!InkyWhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08329678310053301448noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19165611.post-60308039886980712192007-05-15T05:25:00.000-05:002007-05-15T05:25:00.000-05:00It looks lovely!

I don't mind so much in cheap yarn, but I expect better in high quality yarn. <BR/><BR/>Funny you should mention the home-grown mannequins. Just a few days ago a small group of us got together for a "duct-tape dummy" party. It works really well. I haven't yet stuffed mine, but I have the shell of it done. I will blog about it at some point (complete with pictures) but things have been crazy and I haven't had time to blog.<BR/><BR/>I've also recently done something called "Bodymapping" (http://www.amazon.com/Bodymapping-Step-Step-Fitting-Bodies/dp/0873416252) where you use 1"x 1" gingham to map the dimensions of your body and then transfer that to graph paper and you have the proper schematics for your body, that you can use to design or alter patterns. Very cool. Again, I will blog more about it, soon hopefully!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
