This week I have been getting used to using the Dubied Machine, I feel as though I am getting better at it the more I practice and am slowly finding ways to translate my images and drawings into knit. This week I have be using techniques like racking and ripple mostly to try and capture the waving movement in my drawings, and using ripple to add textures. Though feel that the hook up technique on the domestic machine is working well and would be good if I could combine the two, this could be achieved if I transfer the knit and swapped in to a different machine.

Also it was suggested that though I am trying to achieve an organic look within my work, it would be nice to show the more structured designs along side the organic ones. Though could do both these in one samples which I have found are qualities within my drawings, that there is a lot of texture and colour but then this fades out into pale colours and flat texture.
