darchildreThings that are ridiculous:
So, I have been watching a lot of DS9 lately, right? Which has led to reading fanfic and watching vids. This morning, I was watching a really excellent Kira vid (which is here) and one of the tracks my brain decided to run on while watching this vid was, "Y'know, civilian Bajorans wear a lot of openwork crochet (or knitting - I can't really tell without a better look)." And there was this green thing that Kira was wearing in several clips - it's sleeveless and long and green and lovely. I couldn't remember what episode that was in but after about 20 minutes of poking at things and looking through image galleries, I discovered that it was The Circle. So now I am scrutinizing screencaps of this garment.
Alas, they are kinda blurry and it's really hard for me to see the lace pattern clearly, let alone figure out how the garment's constructed. It's got seams at the shoulders but I can't tell if the back and front panels are worked separately and joined at the sides, or worked continuously around. (It could be like the vest I'm working on, where they're worked separately in order to form the arm holes and worked all together for the rest of the garment.)
I haven't gotten to that episode yet and I've been trying pretty hard not to skip ahead to my favorites but I am ridiculously tempted to watch this one, just so I can try to figure out if this things is crocheted or knitted and whether I can work up a pattern. I'd really like to make it, I think.
