Happy 4th of July!
Happy 4th to everyone who celebrates the holiday! I hope crafting, family and great food fill your day.
Happy 4th from England!
I’ve been talking with my crafting group about FiberKind - if you see new people they are probably my friends.
Need a recommendation:
I am looking for a book (preferred) or a trustworthy website that gives garment dimensions for designing my own baby and toddler clothes. To make things for my granddaughter.
I am pretty good at designing based on my gauge so I don’t need it too dumbed down, just a reference resource. All I am finding are pattern collections. I tried 2 LYS and nothing available in store (one told me to go Google it🙄)
I know Ann Budd has published “Knitters Handy Guide” books with basic patterns at different gauges. Any opinions on that series? Or other great ideas?
I have been using this site for size references for a couple of years now and found it to be fairly reliable. They also have men’s and women’s size charts and sock and hat size charts for babies to adults.
If anyone is interested, the newest issue of Blocked magazine is up! I think it is our best one so far and has some great stuff in it!
I have used the Ann Budd books many times. The only comment I have is that the preemie sized hats seem large, everything else is fine.
Thank you for posting this link!
A bit of Hardanger in progress, primarily to test out buttonhole edging and its stability. I’m looking forward to the cut work! For some reason I hate doing eyelets though… glad they’re all done for this piece.
That is beautiful!
I just finished this piece I have had in progress for a little while. I might add another border when I get home. We’ll see.
Another beautiful piece of work!
Thank you
My mom sent a joke today:
Why was the quilter playing with her scissors?
For the shear fun of it!
Stopped in a LYS during my travels. This shop is in Bandon, Or. Lovely people and cute shop full of goodies.
Ooo, I love that shade of blue.
Nice!
I second that! So pretty!
