on the shoulders of giants

ok so. five image collage showing the front, 3 inner spreads, and back of a riso-printed zine in green and light blue. it's called 'on the shoulders of giants' and it's about a knitting technique I learned from Stephen west and how I built on that technique. it talks about joining two adjacent panels without seaming, instead knitting the second panel onto the selvedge of the first. then it uses that technique to approach two panels knit with significantly different weights of yarn

Riso printed!
