How do you make a picot stitch in crocheting?
A picot stitch is made with chain stitches. For a small picot, chain 3, then put a slip stitch in the first chain stitch. For a larger picot, do 5 stitches the same way. If you chose to change the amount of stitches, odd numbers are best so that there is a middle stitch.
Is an automatic or manual sewing machine best?
I am assuming by manual you are talking about a non-electric sewing machine. These are the old treadle Singer sewing machines. They are good for their purpose. If you live in a community where the power goes off, obviously you can still sew when you can't do much else. An automatic or electric machine is far superior for what it can accomplish. If you are asking about electric machines, but are talking computer generated machines versus plain electronic machines, it is definitely preference. The computer machines are amazing, but can cost as much as an average car. They require a fair amount of training, but then the results can be very professional. If you are a garment sewer or a quilter, the computer may not be of as much use to you. A zig-zag and straight stitch are basically what you need with perhaps an overlock stitch. Even my old Kenmore from 1960 has attachments that will allow me to do rolled hems and gathering. You need to weigh the costs versus what you want to accomplish.

Bernina. if you buy a genuine Bernina it will be the last machine you will ever need. i am a sewing machine mechanic and i work on all brands and i quilt as well as sew all my own clothing. i have owned and sewed on all the brands. has the most precise stitch and there machines have the leased amount of breakdowns or problems. if you buy a cheap singer or other junk you can find at Walmart you will have so much trouble you will end up hating sewing and you wont realize its just your machine that sucks. ++++++++++++++++++++ I tend to agree to some degree. I too have a Bernina, but I also own 2 Viking sewing machines ( one for working with leather, and one for working with very heavy fabrics, such as denim or canvas. I also own a Pfaff which is VERY good for quilting. I have thrown out numerous other makes and models. Though I WILL keep my old Singer treadle. : }

What is 2 double crochet in next chain twice Miss next chain 1 double chain in next chain 5 times?
Now, I'm not the best at reading crochet directions, personally, I like symbol crochet charts to read. To me, it's easier to understand.Okay, my best guess would be that you:double crochet twice into a single chain stitch (from the row below)do it again (double crochet 2 stitches into the next chain stitch)now, skip the next chain stitch (don't stitch anything into that chain stitch)now, double crochet into the following chain stitch.Without punctuation is it unclear whether you are to repeat the above stitch set in the order given five times, or whether it means to repeat the last instruction (double crochet in next chain) 5 times. If you have a photo of the finished piece you should be able to tell if there are five double crochets in a row as the last part of the repeat.
