Tutorial: How to read a crochet chart worked in the round Tutorial how to read a Crochet Chart/Diagram Crochet motifs are often charted and this requires that you know the basics about reading crochet diagrams. In this tutorial I show you how to read a chart with the help of the crocheted motif above. A crochet diagram shows you the pattern by using crochet symbols. On top of the page you see a crocheted swatch worked in the round. Below is a crochet diagram for that same swatch and below that a stitch guide for the different symbols that are included in the stitch diagram. Now I will take you by the hand and give you an instruction how you read the above crochet chart/diagram. You start reading the chart from the center. In the center in black you see the foundation chain. Row 1 The first row shown in blue is worked counter clockwise. Row 2 The second row shown in red. Row 3 The third row is green. I hope this instruction helps people, who want to work my chart only crochet patterns. I have also written a tutorial how to read a row by row chart.

Knitting Stitch Patterns Tutorial :: Making Brushed Amigurumi - The Former Roxycraft Blog For amigurumi, I usually don't use natural fibers, acrylic has so many benefits for making dolls like durability, washability, and shape resiliance that using natural fibers seemed like a waste of time and effort. But I recently came into a stash of Brown Sheep Lamb's Pride Bulky. It's an awesome yarn with a wool/mohair blend and I couldn't let it just sit on the shelf. I had seen around the web some dolls that were brushed and thought I might give it a shot. Materials:Any spun Natural fiber yarn (except cotton)A dog slicker brush (mine has a soft brush on the flip side which I found came in handy at the end) Close-up of what the bristles of the slicker brush look like: (click any picture for a larger version) In this tutorial, my doll has a head and that's what I'm brushing up for you today. Take out your stitch marker and avoid brushing your working yarn. When you use a dog slicker, one direction with smooth and the other direction will have resistance as it is grabbing fibers.

Free Stitch Patterns Knitting Patterns Stitch patterns are not really knitting patterns in and of themselves. Rather they are combinations of stitches that can lend visual appeal to nearly any knitted object, from scarves to sweaters.

Crochet School Lesson 21: Reading Crochet Charts Remember in the last lesson where I said that the simpler the pattern the better? Well how's this for simple? (hover your mouse over to see the difference between the square and the chart overlay) Do you see how you could possibly not even need words to make a pattern if you knew what the symbols were? That's something that makes crochet awesome! Note: we have talked about US vs UK terms so far. I've found that some patterns will give written out directions along with a chart, which makes it a bit easier if you aren't sure what a symbol means. This first chart is of the general stitches that we have learned. The arrows on this image point to the parts of the stitch that make up the symbol. I for one love to read charts because I'm a visual person and the more information I can get packed into a visual is better. Here are the symbols for the other stitches and variations we have learned throughout crochet school: Now that you know the symbols, you probably should know how to read them.

twist: Russian Join Today, I'm going to give you a tutorial on the Russian Join. A Russian Join is a way to start a new ball of yarn without weaving in ends!The Russian Join is particularly helpful when:You are joining non-felting yarn (to use instead of a spit-splice)You are joining fine-weight yarn, such as fingering or lace weightYou are conserving yarn - there's very little waste.Keep in mind - the yarn will be slightly thicker where the join is, and may show, depending upon your stitch pattern. I'm using a regular tapestry needle & Cascade 220 yarn (worsted, 100% wool.) Weave the tapestry needle in and out of the yarn - you'll be stitching the end of your strand of yarn back down into itself. Pull the end of the strand through your stitches, forming a loop. Thread the new strand (pink for illustrative purposes) through the loop you just made. Stitch the yarn end back into itself as you did before. Pull the end of the strand through. Trim the ends close to the yarn join. Ta-da!
