a Rusted shell of an automobile from years past

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

I took the photo with my Nokia N73.

Things get better looking when they're rusty, sometimes.

If you use these textures in your work, please credit me with a link back.

Leave a link or a small sample of your work in my comments, thank you!

Came across this Caterpillar while hiking through the Poconos.

Rust colored stone at the Columbia Gorge. Great texture for scrapbooking or card background.

There are some awesome chains lying all over the sand underneath the wharf at Catherine Hill Bay. I really love the textures in the rust!

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..
