An old Simpson DC Voltmeter silently sits amid a sea of rust.

The small panel to the right of the meter is embossed with the following notations for the controls:

For January Monthly Scavenger Hunt: Rust

East Beach Cafe

I'd found a bit of rust underneath recently, on the ends of the sills, although thankfully it was just surface rust. This is partly what prompted me to get the treatment done. There was no other corrosion of note underneath and hopefully it'll stay that way for a good while now. The proprietor described it as 'solid' which will do me!

I found a good rust on an old-fashioned garage in Ibaraki, Osaka.

I took the photo with my Nokia N73.

Nikon D40, Cosina Voigtländer Ultron 40mm f/2 @ ISO 2001/60s f/8.

Pattern: Rusted Root from Zephyr Style Size Small

Yarn: Noro Lily in lavender. I'm guessing about 5 skeins; I used a bunch of partial skeins.

Needle: US6 for body. US4 for ribbing

This is the unwashed/unblocked state and the hem and stitches are a little bit wonky. I thought the pattern was pretty well written, but I think the lace panel instructions could have been improved to produce symmetrical leaves. I made these changes after the second repeat. The instructions for my changes would read:

Row 1: K1, YO, K5, YO, (Sl2tog, K1, p2sso), YO, K5, YO, K1

Row 3: K1, YO, SSK, P1, K2tog, K1, YO, P1, YO, K1, SSK, P1, K2tog, K1, YO, K1

Row 5: K1, YO, K1, SSK, P1, K2tog, K1, P1, K1, SSK, P1, K2tog, K1, YO, K1

Row 7: K1, YO, K1, YO, SSK, P1, K2tog, P1, SSK, P1, K2tog, YO, K1, YO, K1

Row 9: K1, YO, K3, YO, (Sl2tog, K1, p2sso), P1, (Sl2tog, K1, p2sso), YO, K3, YO, K1

I also added increase hips stitches and worked the lace panel into the ribbing for about 10 rows (inspired by someone else's Rusted Root that I can't find to link to). Next time I would cast-on for the Medium size for a larger neck and follow the size Small for the rest of the sizing; I think it's likely I'll make another one of these.

i was recently reading a magazine and in it had a photography competition, the subject was landscapes that have been touched by man, now i,m not one for entering comps but i thought it was an interesting subject to have a go at..

we cant shoot seascapes all the time and i kind of like a little challenge every now and then..
