Free Crochet Pattern: Sturdy Market Tote One of my favorite, favorite things about summer is hitting up the farmer’s market. For me, it’s not only about the fresh, local produce, it’s about the experience. Yes? Yesssss. :) This weekend I’ve teamed up with Lion Brand and Michael’s to bring you a free pattern to celebrate Michael’s Big Brand Sale happening next week ( Aug. 2-8, 2015)! It’s a FREE crochet pattern for a sturdy market tote, perfect for taking to the farmer’s market and more! If you followed my scarf week series from earlier this year, then you already know I am a big Lion Brand Yarn fan. For this bag, I used Lion Brand Wool-Ease Thick & Quick in Oatmeal. One more thing I want to mention before jumping into the pattern, is that this pattern is worked in an oblong round. Cool? About 5 skeins of Super Bulky, 6 weight yarn* (6 oz. or 106 yards per skein) 9.00 mm hook (or size N) Yarn needle and scissors * You will use all of the first four skeins, but only a small amount of the fifth skein. ch = chain sc = single crochet
Macaron Coin Purse Just can’t help for not sewing these sweet little macaron coin purses when one of Craft Passion’s Facebook fans showed them to me. Thanks to XYZZhandmade for her inspiring handmade and some tutorial links in Japanese, this, this, this and this. No, I can’t read Japanese but I can guess from the pictures on how to sew it. The space inside the coin purse is quite limited but good enough to place some small jewelries like ear rings, rings; may be to keep some small coins, folded money; a place to keep small piece of note that wrote your shopping list and reminder etc. I have tried both nylon and metal zipper, each gave different feel and effect on the macaron coin purse.
haramisdesigns.wordpress.com/2010/11/01/kindle-sleeve-pattern/ Right, so I didn’t update again for the whole of October, even after I said I would, and I haven’t shared any projects that were knitted after August. What have I been up to then? Knitting! I also purchased a Kindle, which I love, love, love. The pattern is pretty straightforward, but I thought I’d share it if anyone else would like to make one! Cabled Kindle Sleeve Yarn: Malabrigo Yarn Merino Worsted, 70-90 yards (60-85 m). I wanted a snug fit, so I calculated that in would be about for a unstretched fit it the case would need 44-48 sts, and cast on 40. Adaptations for the new Kindles: For the smaller no-keypad Kindle, subtract 1″ (2 cm) from the original total height of 8.5″ (21 cm) to 7.5″ (19 cm) and for the Kindle Touch, subtract .5″ (1 cm) to 8″ (20 cm) for the total length. 2 x 2 Left Cross: With a cable needle: Slip two stitches purlwise onto cable needle, hold in front, knit next two stitches, knit the two stitches from the cable needle. Happy knitting! P.S. Like this:

Tassels! Tassels!! Tutorials!!! 這幾個待完成的流蘇已經在我桌上排隊很久了.... 前幾天終於下定決心將它們一口氣全部"解決掉"! 這個Italian Knotted Tassels實在太可愛了！ 我將它們綁在這裡.... 掛在燈罩外面似乎也是一個不錯的選擇 尤其喜歡這幾個流蘇垂掛著可愛的模樣 我的Ruskin Lace也等著流蘇的完成 這回我先試綁一個然後看看效果如何 還加了一個半圓形的Buttonhole Stitch 這樣像不像一個正等待被送出的禮物呢? 綁在角落似乎好一點 但因為顏色太搶眼，我決定捨棄那半個圈圈 這是我最後的決定，簡單的流蘇綁在四個角落...完成!!! 我說當然沒問題，只是...我不確定正不正確!? 總之這是我製作的方式，希望你也覺得有用！ Let's start! 材料可以是任何種類的線或繩子 You can use any kind of thread for tassels. 這裡我使用深淺三種不同顏色的線+一小片不織布 I'm useing 3 different colour thread (light-medium-dark) and a small piece of felt for making the tassel head. 從中間顏色的那綑線中抽出約40"的線 對折再對折後每條線大約10"（圖左邊） 然後將剩餘的線整綑直接對折（圖右邊） Take a piece of medium colour thread-about 40 inches long, fold it in half and in half again. Fold the rest of the skein in half. 用你抽出來對折再對折的線將剩下的一綑線從中間綁起來(第一個結) Use that thread to tie the whole skein in the middle. 剪一小長條不織布(注意到兩頭寬度不一樣了嗎？) Cut a small piece of felt, make sure one end is narrower than the other end. 用這片不織布將流蘇纏繞起來 Wrap the tassel with this piece of felt 用一般的手縫線將不織布固定 Sew the felt in position using regular sewing thread. 完成! 剪！

Step 4: Sew the hair elastic or ribbon right on top of the patchwork end (centered), with the loop facing inward. Step 8: Next, add your felt "pages." Whew!

Cross-Stitch Family Portrait - Martha Stewart Crafts by Technique How do you capture your clan in a more meaningful way? Try something pre-photography: Cross-stitch figures for each family member. This is far simpler than it might sound -- if you can sew on a button, you can cross-stitch. (The ability to count to 20 or so doesn’t hurt, either -- so yes, a dexterous grade-schooler could handle this.) Use graph paper to plan your people from head to toe -- or cowlick to sandal. Use these clip art patterns as exact templates or as starting points for making figures that more closely resemble the people in your life. Sew CutePlot out your design on graph paper: One square represents one cross-stitch. Face factsWe found that it works well to make adults' heads 10 stitches across and kids' heads nine stitches across. Do the 'DosIn cross-stitch, as in life, hairdos tend to capture the essence of a person. Accessorize Extra details give a lot of personality. Learn How to Cross-Stitch
