Cable Knit Needle by Fireplace in Termez

One wooden knitting needle holds a row of thick, twisted cable stitches in mid-progress. The yarn, a deep autumnal brown, rests against the warm grain of the wood. Behind the needle, a crackling fireplace casts flickering orange light that meets the cool, soft gray of the overcast morning seeping through a window. Dust motes float gently in the shafts of light near the hearth. The stone floor shows signs of wear, at the base of the domestic space. A small oil lamp sits in the corner, its flame low and steady, adding a pool of yellow glow to the shadows. The needle tip catches a reflection of the fire, highlighting the smooth texture of the wood against the rough wool. The cables twist tightly, showing the tension of the work.
