Shoemaking One-Year Course (n. 26)
After returning from my amazing weekend it was time to jump back into work and start stitching my dads boots. My best friend also came to visit me that day and is staying for a whole week! I showed her around Florence and she visited all the touristic sights while I was working in class.
For the Tirolese stitch, a whole separate welt it sewn to the insole and upper of the shoe. This is not an easy process and you need to be exceptionally precise in order for the stitches to look the same size on the outside of the shoe.
A special tool with a curved point is used to make the holes for the thread to pull through. After every stitch is sewn, the next whole is made for the next stitch.
On the Wednesday evening me and my friend went for a run up to Piazzale Michelangelo, watched the sunset with a beer, and then ran back after. It is honestly one of the most incredible views of Florence.
Here you can see the stitches on the outside of the welt. The welt is sewn all around the border of the shoe and then reconnected at the starting point.
Of course, a gelato is a must!
On the Friday afternoon my friend and I travelled to a place at the see called Castglioncello with some friends from class.
We had such a wonderful time at the see and also had the best seafood ever!
On Sunday evening we were on our way to a party and had to stop for the incredible sunset.
