Knitting Bowl

Roger-

Beautiful bowl. I like the cut you made for the yarn to pass through instead of a straight cut line.

Gary

Roger-

Forgot to ask- What did you use for the metallic band?

Gary

Gary:

Thanks for the complement. I made the knitting bowl for my daughter, the most difficult part was cutting the line through the side of the bowl. The side of the bowl was close to 1/2 inch thick, this was deliberate because I needed to add weight to the bowl so it wouldn't be pulled off a table when in use.

As for the metallic band, I removed some of the wood, then hammered the finish, applied black gesso, and dabbed on (and smeared) several different metallic airbrush paints.
