[NFB-Krafters-Korner] Finish or Fix it Friday

Sun Aug 16 00:58:27 UTC 2020

Needle knit. :) I'm using Bernat Blanket yarn. I'm trying it both on my Loops and Threads aluminum size 11's and my Clover Takumi bamboo size 10's. I finally have the movements down for the knit cast-on and the knit stitch--it's just that my tension is all over the place. I'm finding that my cast-on row is curving inward. And some of my stitches have big loops on the back. Keeping things even is a lot harder than I thought it would be.

Thanks,
Ari

>>> Tammy, I completed my first loom knit hat yesterday and made another. Now I’m working on a scarf and matching child’s headband for my cousin’s daughter. They’re almost done, I’m just adding a ribbon decoration to the scarf now. I finished the headband this morning. I don’t know anyone else who has done this, but I got the idea to make a crochet chain out of ribbon and sort of slip stitch it onto the scarf or headband. Then I can get it to be whatever shape I want, like the outline of a heart. It’s pretty fun.
