Geoff Keyes Posted September 30, 2022 Share Posted September 30, 2022 A while back I posted a piece of the Lady Wife's work, a knitted, very brightly colored, shawl. This is the same pattern, but done in black and grey. We think it looks like damascus. Geoff and Marianne 10 "The worst day smithing is better than the best day working for someone else."

Geoff Keyes Posted October 1, 2022 Author Share Posted October 1, 2022 It is often hard to make her understand just how good her stuff is. Even the person whose design that is thinks it's outstanding. Geoff "The worst day smithing is better than the best day working for someone else." I said that.

Hoy's Forge Posted October 3, 2022 Share Posted October 3, 2022 Tell The wife she does an awesome job! Very stunning ! And I agree, it does look like kinda Damascusey ! LOL www.hoyfamily.net Isa 54:16 Behold, I have created the smith that bloweth the coals in the fire, and that bringeth forth an instrument for his work; and I have created the waster to destroy.Lu 22:36 Then said he unto them, But now, he that hath a purse, let him take it, and likewise his scrip: and he that hath no sword, let him sell his garment, and buy one.

Welsh joel Posted October 5, 2022 Share Posted October 5, 2022 That woman has some serious patience... I'm somewhat familiar with the work, and I know it's tedious and requiring much planning- or reworking... in lieu of it. Well done! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
