Frogs. Special announcement: Today's frog button tutorial tutorial is brought to you by my mother Mae! From 3 years ago! Which is how long it took me to finally post it! Which is the story of my life. So, here's the story: I first made frog buttons many years ago when I was a teacher and we needed a sample blouse for the seamstress hired to sew competition costumes for our high school choir. I sewed this blouse and made the buttons to match, after which we found someone who was able to custom-mass-produce them, based on the sample design. I was lucky that Mum could make the ball knot because being a traditional garment element, it wasn't something people in my generation had as part of their sewing repertoire (if they sewed at all, I mean). I think it's very exciting to have my parents teach you stuff because they are amazing people who know the strangest and most wonderful dying-art variety of techniques. Some preamble before we actual begin the tutorial.

PAULDRONS CASSANDRA'S, SOUL CALIBUR IV. A série SoulCalibur foi um dos meus jogos favoritos franquias por um longo tempo. Desde SC2, meu go-to personagem foi Cassandra, tanto por seu estilo de luta como o seu comentário sarcástico e design de personagens. Não dê desculpas. A derrota é uma derrota. - Cassandra Como um projeto pessoal meu, eu tinha decidido em um ponto para fazer a espada e escudo Cassandra's do último episódio da franquia, SoulCalibur IV. Minha esposa mencionou "Se você fizer a armadura, então eu vou fazer o resto do traje.

" E isso é onde nós nos encontramos agora. A "armadura" atingiu, realmente, um par de espaldadeiras ombro. Para começar, eu fiz uma base a partir da escultura de arame armadura e malha.

Crocheting a Flat Circle | Increasing evenly in the round is a basic skill that all crocheters should know how to do. Working a circle that doesn’t wave (increasing too fast) or bowl (increasing too slowly) means that you can make a nice flat-lying circle that can be used for a variety of projects – from cushion covers, to the crown of a hat to the bottom of a basket.

Essentially, all it means is increasing the same number of stitches in each round that you started with. The rule of thumb is you work in: - Multiples of 6 for single crochet (UK double crochet) - Multiples of 8 for half double crochet (UK half treble) - Multiples of 12 for double crochet (UK treble) These numbers aren’t set in stone and may need to change with the yarn and hook sizes. No matter which stitch you use, you will work your circle in the same way: A Flat Circle (Pattern): Do not count your chain stitches as a stitch. Round 1: Ch2, Make 6 (8, 12)stitches into a magic loop. Round 2: Ch2, make 2sts into each stitch around. 12 (16, 24) \ PINK ROSE CROCHET / 圣诞铃铛 真空电镀 50mm 65mm 100mm 批发 金色.

Moccasins 101: How to make one-piece moccasins in Tutorial Section Forum. Moccasin Tutorial Part 5: Sewing the Moccasins For instructions on how to sew your moccasins together refer to the Whipstitching Tutorial at Sole and Top: With right sides together, whipstitch from the big toe down the short side to the centre fold line. Make your stitches about 1/8 inch apart and about 1/8 inch from the edge. Neat, evenly spaced stitches will show in your finished work and are worth the effort.

Pulling each stitch snugly helps the sinew “disappear” into the leather. Begin stitching again at the big toe and whipstitch down the long side all the way to the bottom. Now cut out the T. Heel and Tab: Fold your moccasin in half and whipstitch the back of the moc until you are ¾ inch from the bottom, as noted by the line drawn at the back of the moc in this photo: Now take your scissors and make a cut ¾ inch long, straight across, on that line: Stand the moccasin up and it will look like this.

If you’ve ever researched making your own shoes you know how much specialized knowledge and difficult to source materials are involved. Unfazed, I set to work developing a way to make shoes that is accessible in material and technique. (Don’t worry hardcore readers, more elaborate methods are on their way, master this first!) I’ve consolidated tons of research, hundreds of hours of work and a whole lot of unacceptable test shoes into a series of blog posts.

This is a method for making basic women’s flats. They’re classic, they’re easy to wear, and, from a shoemaking perspective, they have some advantages: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5.

Women’s Size Table « Pattern School. There is no actual universally accepted standard measurement set for women. Every manufacturer and text book lists a different set. These are the ones I now use unless otherwise instructed by whichever company I’m working for. The measurements were originally based on the ISO bust, waist and hip for commercial garment manufacture, and I’ve since manipulated them based on tens of thousands of data sets entered by viewers of the site. What they represent is my best attempt to produce a ready to wear size table with reasonable commercial incremental overlap. Obviously, a size table is only any good if you are producing ready to wear sizing. On version 2 of the site I created a little program that sorts all the measurements people put into the old lazy person’s pattern generation section … basically the table below was a live assessment of measurement distribution across the planet.

Another point of note is this site gets visited fairly uniformly from across the planet.

A lot of people are asking me for the modifiations with cables, bobbles, ‘spectacle helm’ and a ribbed beard. This has now been written up as a new version ‘Dwarven Battle Bonnet 2’ which is also top down construction and desn’t necessarily need fulling. Do check that out too before you buy the pattern, see which one you prefer! Sally April 2012* By popular request, here are instructions for the Dwarven Battle Bonnet.

This is a fun variation on a balaclava, and instructions are given for both the variations shown in the top picture. This hat lends itself well to yarn that can be lightly fulled, but if you wish to knit it using yarn that will not felt at all, you may wish to go down a needle size. Gauge is pretty approximate, this is a very forgiving pattern to knit, but the pattern as given does assume you will be fulling the hat to shrink it.

Everyone needs a silly hat in their life! Dinosaur heels. Talk about walking with dinosaurs! Kick it really (really) old school with a pair of Dinosaur Heels that look just as good touring Jurassic Park as they do strolling down Park Avenue. These prehistoric pump upgrades are fully functional, the standard heel has been replaced with a steel bolt welded to the sole shank, with hollow dinosaur toys to cover up the hardware. It looks like these tiny terrors are holding you up, or maybe chasing you down as you are running away trying to escape Isla Nubla. After the internet went crazy a month ago for these dinosaur shoes I knew I wanted to recreate them. If you read about those shoes while they were trending then you probably know that these shoes were reposted all over the place.

Every article had the same grainy picture and everyone was asking the same two questions: "where can I get some? " Here's the basics on what you need: Ready to make your own? ABSs of Knitting. Stitchionary: Stitchionary Home. The ‘How Many…?’ Knitting Tool. Free Patterns Menu: Period Clothing Patterns and Cutting Diagrams - The Ladies Treasury of Costume and Fashion. Period Clothing Patterns and Cutting Diagrams IMPORTANT: Notes On Using Our Patterns These patterns are reproduced from original period patterns and from cutting diagrams found in English, French and American publications of the 19th and early 20th centuries.

Those copied from full-sized patterns were scanned in at 1/2, 1/4 or 1/8 of the original size as indicated on each piece. They can be printed out and enlarged on a photocopier, projector, digitally, or by hand. The scale in inches is also given on each piece, in case they do not print out true to size. Patterns copied from cutting diagrams have been scanned in at 1 to 1½ times original size and are not to scale.

Where a graduated ruler system is required to custom draft these, in its absence we recommend that the pieces are drafted to the measurements given and later adjusted to size. We also include period cutting layouts and diagrams which are not always to scale. All of these patterns come in one size only: that of the original.
