Who doesn’t have a big clear plastic tub lying around to use as a diffuser! The Cable Rib sock is beautiful!

I’ll have to try it out– my lighting is something that needs to be improved. Of course, it’ makes it even weirder to photograph a sock sitting inside a plastic tub, doesn’t it? :)

I’m making a pair with Tofutsies yarn too, and while the first sock didn’t have splitty issues, the second one is. Very annoying. But, the yarn is a nice weight, so I’m not sure whether the good is currently outweighing the annoying.

And I can’t wait to experiment taking yarn pictures. Thanks!

Now I have to figure out how I can set one up at work since that’s where I take the majority of my pictures….hmmm.

(Also love the sock!)

The pink cabled sock is fabulous.

Speaking of difuser. You can get a muslin fabric from Jo-Ann, and get some plastic plumbing pipes from a hardware store. I made a rectangle from the pipes and pin the fabric to the pipes which resulting a diffuser (that was a long time ago). It works to spread the light, and reducing shadow too. It’s great if you are taking a portrait too.
