The first thing that strikes you is the elegant luster and firmness. I felt that if I knit carefully with a very straightforward thread, it would respond to that. As I work every day, I sometimes end up in a hurry or lack concentration, but it is important to knit each stitch carefully.
world. I feel like I was taught by the thread.
It clicks into place during the tying process, and keeps its shape firmly during the weaving process. Even if you pull it strongly, it will not stretch too much and will not get tangled. It almost didn’t get too twisted, and it didn’t fray.
With other threads, if you take a long thread, the threads will go back and forth over and over again during the weaving process, so the threads will rub and the fibers will gradually become tattered. Wild silk thread does not have that, and even if the thread is removed for a long time, it will not fall apart. I was surprised to feel that each fiber is really strong.
It was a little hard to get used to breaking the thread. In Nyanduti, if the threads are broken during the weaving process, it will be difficult to adjust the shape later, so we try not to break the threads.
There are places where fine fibers are coming out, so you have to be careful while knitting there. I felt that.
Nyanduti has a beautiful loose motif, but with wild silk thread, it was more lustrous and nice when it was tightly woven. If it’s a single strand, it’s thin and there’s no twist, so I felt that if I knit it roughly, it would end up looking flat and monotonous.
I dared to make the Kino motif in one piece, and by weaving it as finely as possible, I think I was able to add delicacy, luster, and texture. I think. It was my first time knitting so finely, and I saw the new face of Nyanduti! I feel that it is easier to get a sense of gloss and texture with two pieces.
So, it may be better to take two pieces for rough knitting, large patterns and accessories.
Even when the final bond is diluted with water, it may lose its luster. I was worried about that, but it didn’t happen, and it hardened while maintaining the luster and texture as I had envisioned. Actually, I want to dry it in the sunshine when the weather is nice, but Bond’s
When it’s not dry enough, I sometimes use a hair dryer to dry it, so I tried it with a hair dryer, but there was no change in the thread.
Last but not least, when I tried using wild silk thread, it was a thread that moved my heart to the extent that I thought that the thread had a will. I felt that it was a very gentle and powerful thread that gently enveloped my nervousness and impatience.
