Knitting photoshoot

I finally got the photoshoot that I've been wanting for a bunch of my knitted projects. It was a great early spring day; half the sky was sunny and blue and the other half was overcast. Asia * and I did photos for three big projects: a cowl, my cardigan, and this lace skirt. Tee was there to help out as usual so we got some great shots which will make their way into patterns, my ravelry gallery, and emails to family. I would recommend getting a friend with an eye for design and a good camera to grab some photos of you and your family as much as possible. It is fun to have nice photos and you shouldn't have to wait for a special occasion to have some taken. Photos of the everyday are a great way to look back and remember stuff and are usually more intimate than posed special occasion photos.
I'm putting the finishing touches on my Lace Petal Cardigan pattern. One more test knit and I will be releasing it. Here's another photo:

Can you think of a better name for it? I'm stumped!

  1. Another Asia tour. Yes. Very yes. (I was able to stop in to her place the other week - she has such great ideas and uses for space! An inspiration, for sure.)

    Love the knits, very awesome and fabulously well constructed! :) And good advice about having photos done without an occasion. No time like the present.
