New Loom Knit Stitch
Posted on: March 29, 2011
I was browsing around the other day looking at stitches to make a baby blanket for my niece Sara, she is having a daughter in August in Texas so I don’t want the blanket to be too thick and heavy. I found this one at Knitting on the net it is called Little Shell
I apologize for the not very good picture, I can’t find my camera so I used my cell phone to take it.
The stitch is nice and lacey and very fast. For the blanket I will be using a KISS Compact Straight Loom with 90 pegs with Yarn Bee Little Britches yarn from Hobby Lobby. The colorway is Carousel and it is a weight 4 yarn.
I’ve posted the needle to loom conversion on my pattern page.
Spring Update
Posted on: March 25, 2011
Hi all it’s been awhile since I’ve posted an update, the above photo is a Loomed Postcard taught by Vanessa Soto in Loom Class it was a very fun class and I really enjoyed it. I will definetely be making more of these little cards. I haven’t been knitting much lately mostly I’ve been sewing. I made these cute little pillowcase dresses for granddaughters Chloe and Molly
Chloe and Molly
purple skirt for Molly
pink and green skirt
I think they turned out pretty good, I kinda of made them up as I went along. I think I am going to write a tutorial for them, it will be my first sewing tutorial.
I made the above skirts for Molly for her 4th birthday, When she gets dressed in the morning anything but a dress or skirt is not pretty, so hopefully these will fit that requirement.
