Yarn Conversion Chart – Crochet Hooks You Use this yarn conversion chart only as a guide and I suggest you test with a gauge swatch/tension square for more accurate results. This yarn conversion chart is also useful if you have a pattern that lists a yarn that has a different country measurement scale and you need to convert yarn from one country to another. This chart will also help you become familiar with the different names used between countries for the same types of yarn. Yarn Conversion Chart I hope this is helpful to you. If you can see that something should be added to this yarn conversion chart then leave your suggestions below, they will be reviewed and adjustments will be made if accurate.

I have been working on this the last couple of days.. in between school runs, mad wednesday, housework (well not really... ) I have made this hat for me!

Block Crochet Pattern Tutorial It’s starting to get chilly even here in Oklahoma so I’ve taken back to crochet. Hip, hip hooray! Crochet is one of my more favorite crafts because I love the way I can take it anywhere and when I’m a little bit cold it keeps me busy and warms my lap. I found myself unable to actually take on much of a project though here lately. So I’ve found myself just working through different stitches and patterns to keep my hands busy but not commit me to anything too lengthy. Let’s get into this already. Chain to the length you desire in an increment of 3, then add 2 more. Single crochet in the second chain from the hook. Then chain twice. Chain twice. Keep repeating this until you reach the end of your chain. When you get to the end chain 3 and turn. Double crochet in the first two chains . We’re going to double crochet again, but rather than going in the next available chain like we normally would, we’re going to go UNDER the single crochet in the previous row. See where I link up.

Chevron Infinity Scarf Pattern The chevron pattern seems to be a new trend in fashion and design. I've seen a few chevron scarves around, so I figured it was time to write a pattern for it. This adorable scarf will be perfect for fall and winter, and it would make a lovely, personal gift for the holidays. I'd like to try this pattern out with different yarns/weights, too, for different effects. I love this pattern because it becomes mindless after a while once you starting repeating the same row throughout the scarf, so it's perfect for cuddling up by the TV or taking it to-go! I love anything with stripes, and this chevron pattern is the perfect twist on the traditional stripe. You may sell the finished product from this pattern, but please reference and link this post. You can also purchase this scarf from my Etsy Shop and customize the color/design.

untitled Worsted, DK, Fingering… decryptage Toute cette réflexion m’est venue quand je racontais à une amie que mon cardigan tricoté en malabrigo worsted (merino) s’est mit à feutrer au bout de 3 portages, et que le cardigan d’une autre amie en MCN (merino, cachemire, nylon) de chez Madeline Tosh a été porté à outrance et n’a quasiment pas bougé, alors qu’ils contiennent tout les deux du mérino. Et pourtant, malabrigo est si dooouuuuuux comparé à d’autres laines aussi 100% merino ! Alors, petit décryptage ! Une laine se caractérise par plusieurs propriétés : sa composition (en quoi elle est faite), le nombre de brins, et son poids. La composition Le fait qu’un bout de tissu ou de laine soit composé de coton, d’alpaga ou de mérino va avoir plusieurs impacts : la douceur (mais ce n’est pas lié uniquement au matériaux comme on le verra plus tard)la tenuela tolérance au frottementla capacité à respirerla capacité à se froisserle « tombé »la définition du point (tricot)la perméabilité à l’eau (tissu) Laine : provient du mouton. Les brins
