[Nfb-krafters-korner] FRIDAYS QUESTION: What things asablindcrafter do you find difficult in working your craft of choice?

[Annette Carr]

I get frustrated with not being able to find well written descriptions of
how the finished project will look when I am done.  Sometimes I can figure
out how something will look when it is finished by reading over the pattern
and picturing it in my head.  But, sometimes that just is not possible.

Any help on dealing with seams would be great, as this is what I hate about
finishing up projects.  Well, maybe I hate weaving in tails more.

If I have knitted pieces that need to be seamed together, I find doing
mattress stitch not the easiest thing.  I have taken a class on how to do
mattress stitch, but wonder if the explanation was made more difficult than
it needed to be.  I'd like to see a blind knitter from this group offer a
class on sewing together side seams, and sewing top seams like what gets
done at shoulder seams, but not a three needle bind off,  in order to see if
I can make better sense out of the mattress stitch technique.
