With my current knitting i wanted to try and use the Dubied a bit more as some of the yarns i am using are quite fine which would be perfect for Dubied knitting as its fine gauge.
When i was on the Dubied i was trying out lots of different yarns and seeing what they did when knitted together, like wool and cotton and also bamboo.
I really liked the ripple stitch as it went really well with my fashion project of structure and it was the first 3D knit i had done which i was really happy with.
The only thing with the Dubied is it very temperamental and it does just drop stitches and if my eye wasn't on it all the time i would miss the dropped stitches.
So i mainly used the Dubied to experiment and try out new yarns and new stitches and techniques and i also struggled as we only have one Dubied and was having to share it with another student so time available was limited
