November 14 - Nao's Turtle


Every ripple on the ocean
Every leaf on every tree
Every sand dune in the desert
Every power we never see

There is a deeper wave than this

~ Sting - Love is the Seventh Wave
   (Dream of the Blue Turtles)

A tutorial for this turtle design was on a DVD that was sold by Nao Osaka at Florida Super Jam a couple years ago that I was able to purchase after the fact from the person who runs the convention.  I would like to believe that the purchase money went back to him, ...

This turtle shell uses a weave that is reminiscent of the weave shown by Sabina Kellner, but is slightly different - it makes for a nice shell effect without having to create every section.

There's only one thing left to say:

"Righteous!  ... Righteous! .... duuuuuuude."
