Social Media Training on Social Media Tools. DiaryofaCreativeFanatic. Image | Phildar 16 Having a library of adaptable, basic garment patterns is something I've always believed to be useful.
The first of these basic garments is the cap sleeve top. This pattern can be made in cotton or cashmere, take you from winter to summer and is ideal for layering. The pattern itself is very simple and if you read further, I've rendered four different possibilities for this style. Basically you are knitting the body in one piece.

Brandon Knitting Designs. Through the years, I have been surrounded by incredibly talented women who have inspired me to find ways to use my creativity.
My great grandmother…my grandmother…my mother….and a wonderful woman who was a friend of my mom’s who taught me how to knit when I was eight. Since then…I have taken classes, read books, and tried a lot of techniques…but seem to always return to Fair Isle and Aran designs. On a Rowan Yarn Tour of the Highlands and Islands, I had the absolute pleasure of taking classes with both Alice Starmore and Kaffe Fassette…so you see where my love of color comes from.

St-Denis Yarns was founded in 2009 by Veronik Avery, a knitwear designer.
Her sister-in-law, Monique Jeannin joined her in 2010 and together they sell and distribute a line of yarn all their own under the name of St-Denis (which also happens to be Veronik's maternal surname). Knitwear designer Robin Melanson completes the team with her unparalled talent and technical proficiency. The first yarn launched by St-Denis was Nordique, a sport weight pure wool in an extensive palette, spun and sourced in the United States. Feral Knitter. Knitting Letters : A to Z: bohus. I’m breaking with my established pattern and the usual sequencing of the alphabet by looking back at one of my first posts and updating it.
I suspect that once I’ve finished the abecedarium (extended with typographical symbols, of course), I will probably revisit several letters, but this one has asserted itself as a priority. I wrote last January about Bohus Stickning, and have finally had the very great pleasure of experiencing Susanna Hansson’s Bohus Stickning class (courtesy of Stitches East, held in Baltimore earlier this month). I am now acutely aware of how much more there is to say on the subject and how much I need to correct in my earlier post. Susanna’s class was so wonderful and there is much to report on it alone, so this post will be less a result of musing on general research and more an appreciation for a really gratifying learning experience.

Knitting Letters : A to Z: T is for Turkey. T is for Turkey, and as far as I’m concerned, there simply is no other T imaginable. This post has been a long time coming, but I don’t mean for its lengthiness to be a way of making up for my silence.
I have very close, fond feelings about this remarkable country, and there is just so much to write! I spent seven formative years there as a child, beginning with my family’s first stay when I was four. We were delighted to return twelve years later, and ever since, Turkey has been in my experience and imagination the dream place of color: peerless hospitality, indescribably delicious fruit (and food in general, really), dreamy poppy fields, otherworldly landscapes, and a perpetual harvest of delightful and magnificent textiles made by talented, inspired artists.Turkish textiles are simply extraordinary—sumptuous, exquisite, complex—as is very well known.
Turkish textile culture is a rich, rich field. Knitting Letters : A to Z: B is for Bohus. Bohus StickningImportant note: I have updated much of the information below with a new post! A Swedish knitting cooperative in operation from 1939 to 1969. The knitters developed a distinctive style that makes use of sophisticated colorwork, especially in combining color with knit/purl changes. So many wonderful thoughts have been written about Bohus and Bohus-style knitting. I don’t have much new insight to offer, but it’s really the only knitted “B” I can contemplate. Knitting Letters : A to Z. Knitting Letters : A to Z: Q is for Quatrefoil. Not trefoil, not cinquefoil, but quatrefoil, the architectural equivalent of a four-leaf clover. I want to thank Dee D and Carrie K for this most excellent thematic suggestion. In English, the letter Q rarely appears alone, but the OED has of course tracked down innumerable instances, one of which I find oddly compelling: “Q in the corner. . . a person who or thing which sits in the corner, one who is unnoticed or unimportant; also as a (self-mocking or self-effacing) pseudonym.”
Knitting Letters : A to Z: R is for Red Letters. Lively, assertive, challenging, alluring, frightening, gorgeous, shocking. Red is all that and so much more. So utterly central, this primary of primary colors contradicts and unifies, attracts and repels, radiates and absorbs. It symbolizes life and death, transgressions and sanctity, luck and doom. It’s virtually impossible to feel ambivalent about red. Knitting Letters : A to Z: S for Suzani. S is for suzani, but also for silk road and ’stans (as in Uzbekistan, Kyrgyzstan, Turkmenistan, Kazakhstan).

Somos lo que vestimos. Slow Fashion. Somos lo que vestimos. Slow Fashion. You are what you wear… El movimiento Slow defiende un estilo de vida en el que disfrutar y tomarse el tiempo suficiente son sus principales primicias, para apreciar lo que nos gusta hay que tomarlo con calma y sin prisas, hay que deleitarnos de todas las sensaciones y emociones que la vida nos da.
Diseñadores aplican ya esta filosofía en sus colecciones. La moda ahora también busca tomar parte de este movimiento y lo busca a través del slow fashion o moda lenta que te preguntarás como esta esta onda de la moda lenta, pues aquí te lo digo pon atención. Una moda que dura es más apreciable. Tiene varios objetivos pero lo principal es tener una conciencia de no limitarse a la idea sino a la acción, lo que vendría siendo esto: We need to think harder and feel better about what we buy and how we care for it Green is the new black una campaña que apoya la moda ecológica.
