Crochet Tutorial: Granny Squares | craftpassion.com I fell in love to Granny Square!!! Where did the name come from? Must be related from a granny that designed and made it, I searched but can’t find, even wikipedia didn’t tell…. Granny Square is a kind of patch-working in crochet where we can literally put any color combinations we like to make it a square (or a triangle or any symmetrical shapes you can design) and patch them together to form a project. I love the flexibility it provides in design in terms of motifs, color combinations, shapes and sizes…. There are many types of granny square, from plain basic square to sunburst flower square to emboss 3D flower square… you name it….the variations are unlimited. Anyway, the one I am showing how to crochet is another variation, where I crochet double crochet [dc] in between to reduce the gap in between each dc cluster. {Get full details on next page.} Pages: 1 2 Get all updates via email: Highlights from Our Partners

TUDO SOBRE MANDARIM O mandarim é uma ave de pequeno porte, com de comprimento. São aves muito gregárias e, na natureza, nunca estão longe do resto do bando ou do seu parceiro. Os mandarins são brancos na barriga e cinzento mosqueado de preto no dorso e asas. A cauda é preta e branca. O bico é vermelho vivo. O mandarim macho se diferencia da fêmea por possuir manchas alaranjadas ou castanhas abaixo de cada olho. Cativeiro O mandarim é uma ave de fácil criação, indicada para criadores que estejam iniciando. Reprodução A reprodução se inicia quando as aves possuem cerca de 4 meses, entretanto, o ideal é permitir o acasalamento depois dos 9 meses de vida, visando que terão melhores condições de choco e cuidados com os filhotes. Logo em seguida o casal começa a preparar um novo ninho para outra postura.
How to Recycle Yarn from a Thrift-Store Sweater October 4th, 2008 Email 62 users recommend When you're done ripping, you'll have hundreds of yards of brand-new yarn for knitting! Lee Meredith This example sweater is bulky yarn, so it'll be easier to see what's going on. Sometimes the edge will be machine sewn closed, so you'll have to make more cuts to get it started. Photo: Lee Meredith The most classic handmade holiday gift has to be the knit sweater, which is also one of the most ambitious. You'll Need: Thrifted sweater to unravel (details below)Seam ripperScissors (embroidery scissors can be helpful)Dish soap or shampooThese will help if you have them: niddy noddy, swift, ball winder Your first step is to find a sweater (or two) to unravel. Yardage: If you find a fantastic yarn but are not sure it'll be enough to complete your gift, I'd recommend finding another yarn of the same weight that could be added as a stripe in your sweater if needed. Seams: To get usable yarn, your sweater must have sewn or crocheted seams, not serged!

15 Tips for Low Light Landscape Photography A Post By: Natalie Denton (nee Johnson) Capturing scenes in low light remains one of the most challenging aspects of photography, yet the results when executed well can be truly captivating. Whether it’s an energetic cityscape or ethereal seascape the possibilities are endless. Here are a few essentials points to consider before you begin. It’s a good idea to formulate a plan of attack before the twilight hour so scout out a position while there is another available light and grab a few set up shots to make sure your scene works and will be free from distracting objects. Image by V31S70 So start by setting your camera upon a solid tripod and switching the unit to manual or shutter priority if you are wish. Image by kern.justin Another key piece of kit is a remote control shutter release like Nikon’s ML-L3 wireless control which works with Nikon’s enthusiast range of cameras; D40, D40x, D60, D80 and D90.

strikkefrenzys 14 Totoros The dolls in this pattern were too sugar cute for me, although I think they look great. In my head, I had 3 versions, maybe I can inspire someone to make the other two? - here they are: I. II. Notes The I-cord cast-on kills my fingers… took me 2 days to finish! Why why WHYYY must everything always turn out too big? The decreases in this pattern look bumpy and ugly, not really recommended. Sleeves done! Yoke: 308 sts. The Totoro pattern can be found here!! Did 3 decrease rounds before the one in the written instructions. Used about 40 g of Pesto and 35 g My Old Blue Jeans. Photo session time!
