You Go Girl!: A Firm Foundation Welcome to Week Three of On the Edge... This Weeks Task: Create a Firm Foundation Difficulty Level: 3 Chocolates A firm foundation...I'd like to have a firm foundation. Ok, so I've established that a firm foundation might not be important for me, but it is important for the crochet edging that is going to grace that Posh Pillowcase you stitched up last week. Instructions for a Firm Foundation: Eat a chocolate. Mark every 1/2-inch around the hem of your Posh Pillowcase using a water-soluble marker. Measure a length or yarn that is fifteen times, yes 15, ten and five more times the width of the pillowcase. Thread the needle. Start on the "pocket" edge of your pillowcase. You will have a little hole like this in your pillowcase. Take the threaded needle up into the "pocket". Take a blanket stitch at every 1/2" mark all the way around the pillowcase. You probably need the other two chocolates about now. Don't forget to take a stitch at each seam. Look inside the "pocket". Done! Until then,
Crocheted Linen Grocery Tote It's always a good time to eschew the plastic bag in favor of an earth friendly one. My favorite choice is the netted grocery tote. It has all the conveniences of a plastic bag and none of the detriments. I love that it scrunches up into a tiny ball inside my purse, weighs nothing, and fits more groceries than I can even carry - magic! Our knit version of this bag has been a perennial favorite at Purl (check out Elisa's Nest Tote), so here, finally, is a crocheted option. The Materials 1 skein of Louet's Euroflax Original, 100% linen. The Pattern Gauge 5 1/2 single crochets = 1 inch Finished Size Approximately 17 inches tall x 11 inches wide and very expandable. The Bottom Chain 6 and slip stitch into the first chain to form a ring. Round 1: Make 11 single crochets (sc) into the ring. Note: Mark the first stitch of the next round with a removable stitch marker, safety pin or paper clip. Round 2: Make 2 sc into each stitch of the round. (22 stitches) The Body The Handles

fiche52 Changement de tissu Lors de la fabrication de votre tapis, vous aurez à changer de tissu dans trois occasions : si une portion de votre tissu est endommagée (ex. il y a un joint dans le tissu), si votre rouleau est vide ou que vous voulez changer de couleur. Dans un tapis rond, on peut faire un joint n’importe où dans le tapis. Dans tous les cas, la technique est la même : (1) commencer une maille serrée en insérant le crochet dans la maille du tapis, en faisant un jeté et en le passant dans la boucle – bien serrer la boucle sur votre crochet (2) couper ensuite ce bout du tissu en laissant une queue d’environ 6 pouces (3) prendre votre nouveau tissu et le poser à plat, en exposant l’intérieur du tissu vers le haut (4) juxtaposer la queue du tapis sur le nouveau tissu et repliez chaque côté du nouveau tissu fermement pour bien emprisonner le tissu rattaché au tapis (5) Tenir fermement et terminer votre maille serrée, suivi d’une maille en l’air.
hoppingStill: Crochet Bow Tutorial Hi there! A couple of weeks ago, my little hopper came back from play group with the news that the following day was a red and white day. Now, it just so happens that she does not have any red or white clothing, what's a mum to do? go stash diving, of course. I did a white headband with a red bow. The bow took several tries until I had something I liked. Here we go: (Before we actually start: this is my first ever crochet tutorial, please feel free to leave comments with questions, and/or corrections!) The original bow was done with 4 ply yarn and size 3 hook, and it's about 6cm by 3cm. Written with UK crochet terminology: Stitches used: Double crochet (dc) Chain (ch) Double Crochet decrease: a good tutorial here Chain 7 Row 1: DC in second stitch from hook, dc 5, ch 1 and turn. Row 17: dc4, ch 1 and turn. Once you have finished the row of dc around the strip, cut your yarn leaving along tail and don't weave it in. Now you will need to crochet the centre strip that goes across the bow. .

Granny Bobble Spiral Hi all, My attempt at a spiral bobble pattern posted here - has been a hit with all you pinners out there, and so I have refined the pattern... Granny Bobble Spiral - And there you have it. It's a bit fiddly at first with lots of ends and loops, but once you get past the 2nd row and the pattern is set the only problem is keeping the 4 balls of wool untangled! Anywho, I hope you like it... Happy crocheting, Karen xx How to Crochet A Curlicue Crocheting culicues are one of the most simple and fun things I've made in a while...oh and they are addicting too!For this I'm using an H hook and some worsted weight yarn I had laying around (here's a hat pattern for you I made a while back with this yarn) To begin, make a chain as long as you would like your curlicue to be plus 3 chains (the one shown here is 20+3), Then make one dc in the 4th chain from the hook, In the same chain, make another dc... Now make 3 dc in each chain until you get to the end (here is how it looks about halfway through), See the curlicue starting to emerge? Love it!
Bobble Cast On: a Tutorial, and some thoughts on personality... Today was a really hectic day, with a lot happening at work...in fact this whole week has been quite a handful. I had great intentions to post this tutorial earlier this week, but you know...the road to perdition and all... so after some delay, here it is... I was thinking about our kids today, and how different they are in some respects. I have been doing homework in the afternoons with the little one, and the Afrikaans spelling is just a giant weight on her shoulders! So in a nutshell...do you think it's nature or nurture? Above is a picture of a visit we made to the Dinosaur Park in Mpumalanga. Notice the bottled water and chic outfit...and the knees.... :) And now onto other things... The bobble cast on idea has a bit of a history. I phoned my good friend Dana later in the evening, and told her of my herculean effort. So....what is this all leading up to? This is what you are going to learn to do. Cast on the number of stitches that you need. Knit one row, and turn your work around.

Crochet School Sorry I've taken so long to post this very last post of the crochet school series. Would you believe me if I said I don't want it to end? haha That's not the real reason, although it is a little weird to be writing the last crochet school post (for now). I've just been busy designing new patterns and crocheting my butt off for the craft show I'm in next month, Deluxe. I was also waiting for all of you to have time to put in questions you want answered in this post. Let's cover those questions first: Carly asked "I think you mentioned that you can weave in ends with a hook. Hi carly, Since you're making a blanket, I would probably just try to find a bigger needle. Nia asked "I understand how to make the corners when seaming horizontally but what about vertically.. do we skip the corners and just seam the sides? Since you only do one corner from each side when seaming horizontally, you'll pick up those other two corners when you to the vertical stitches. Don't be afraid to ask for help!
