Sift, not dilutePosted by Catherine Cartwright Jones on October 24, 2001 at 12:53:46: In reply to: Fine Lines - one for Catherine that others would be interested in. posted by Meredith Lindner on October 24, 2001 at 08:28:35: Runny is no damn good. This isn't an ink thing.Fine lines come from sifting, sifting, sifting, and stirring up a mix, preferably of a rainy season harvest so it's naturally "stringy". If you have fine, even consistency, you can pull perfectly thin lines (you can pull a fine line with honey. or powdered sugar frosting, but not with tapioca) I mix my best lines at a consistancy about like stirred up yoghurt .... perhaps a little thicker. When I get the mix perfect, I can get 22 lines per inch with a carrot bag, but I have to do that under my big magnifying lamp ...
