Autumn Cape 2016 A long Term Project - Front Daytime

Part 2

As I indicated in the previous blog the pattern on the Pictorial Chart will have to be more organic. Rather than inputting the design first on the Pictorial Chart as on the back it will be constantly adjusted whilst knitted.

As I have been going along there have been minor tweaks however I have arrived at a point where there needs to be not only tweaking but I will have to go back and embroider corrections.

Fox Spindly legs 

As you can see in the photograph above the legs are disproportional to the body. This means they will have to be enlarged width ways.  Now this can be done on the Pictorial Chart but it is far more difficult on the actual work itself.

Unfortunately there is very little room in between the Fox’s legs. Therefore I will have to be extremely careful or the legs will end up merging.

Fox Spindly Legs Pictorial Chart Adjustment

This is a rough adjustment. In order to increase the width of the legs without merging I have done the following. I have increased the Fox’s far front and hind legs to the left. I have increased the Fox’s near front and hind legs to the right. This should maintain the distance between as before.

Incidentally have you spotted the mistake I have made in the adjustment?
