Knitting Scarf - Take 2

I'll write more later about the process, but here are some pictures of the second scarf I started - this time with US 0 double-pointed needles and baby alpaca 2 ply lace. Special thanks to the owner of Yarntopia who helped us find the correct yarn.

Enjoy!

Mel's Miniature Scarf

My first attempt at miniature knitting! Since it's Labor Day, the place where I buy my yarn is closed, so I used some double pointed needles that I already had (No. 2) and some black and white string. Knitting on a miniature scale wasn't as difficult as I thought it might be, but I did have issues at first keeping the stitches the same size at the end of the rows. Hopefully this will be easier with different needles!

Here is the "Making of..." video for the natural gas commercial. According to an article about the spot, it took a month of pre-production and then 4 days/nights of shooting - 40+ crew and 4 different cameras. Beautiful!

So this is a mix of stop motion and live action. I'd love to know how this was done?

"Coraline" Wardrobe



Miniature knitting used in Coraline. Melissa is going to experiment with this once I have the bulk of the puppets done.
