This week I have been tracing patterns from my Ottobre magazine. I was a bit shocked when I first saw these pattern sheets and wondered how I was ever going to work out the design I was looking for. Ends up that the system is actually really easy (once you read the instructions) and it is amazing how your eyes can focus and find the line number and colour you are looking for. Plus it must be good training for the brain too, so I am stimulating my intellectual intelligence at the same time. Love multi-tasking!Pop over to Kootoyoo for more creative intelligence.
Another mention of that magazine! I am so going to have to seek it out ;) Fabulous photo. Love the part about reading the instructions too :) K
ReplyDeleteGood work! What are you making?
ReplyDeleteYes, keep that mind excercised...I think I need to take up sudoko. That pattern looks way to complex for me.
ReplyDeleteIt does look hard doesn't it?! I put off my first Otto for ages but when I got down to it, it was a breeze... having said that though, I wish it came ready to cut out... I AM such a lazy crafter.... ;)
ReplyDeleteIt looks like a scary road map hehe glad you figured out..

What's it going to be?
ReplyDeleteWow it looks complex but I'll take your word for it that it's easy to figure out once you read the instructions. I've never heard of that magazine but then I do live in a cave most of the time...
