Crocheting and Knitting

This means double crochet 3 together. It is a decrease over 3 stitches.

yarn over (yo), insert hook in stitch, yo and pull through, yo and draw through 2 loops (2 loops on hook)

yo, insert hook in next st, yo and pull through, yo, draw through 2 loops (3 loops on hook)

yo, insert hook in next st,yo and pull through, yo and draw through 2 loops (4 loops on hook)

yo and draw through all 4 loops.

Circular knit is knitted from different needle by different feeders high production cappacity, but flat can be knitted with same technics but fabric is not circular, low production than circular knit

cable knitting, tube knitting, four needle knitting, knitting in the round, and a straight knit

To determine if you purled or knitted a stitch, look at the side of the fabric you're working on. If the stitch appears smooth and V-shaped, you have knitted it; this is the "knit" side. Conversely, if the stitch has a bump or a purl appearance, then you have purled it, which is commonly referred to as the "purl" side. Additionally, the texture of the fabric will also differ: knit stitches create a flatter, more elastic fabric, while purl stitches create a bumpy texture.

Do a double crochet stitch in every chain stitch until you reach the end of the row. When you come up to the chain three that you did at the end of the previous row, look at where you chained 3 and then do a dc in the last chain stitch of your chain 3.

That depends on the thickness of your yarn, the size of the needles, and how tightly you knit. Make a gauge swatch about four inches square. Measure the width of the square and divide your number of stitches by the number of inches (in decimal form). That tells you how many stitches are in each inch. Now measure around your hand. Subtract 15% from that measurement, then multiply it by your stitches per inch. That will tell you how many stitches to cast on for hand warmers. You may be wondering why we subtacted 15%. This is to give the hand warmers "negative ease." We want them to be a little clingy so they don't slide around or fall off, so we make them a wee bit smaller than our hands. Don't worry, knitting is stretchy, so it won'd bind or be uncomfortable.

For felting, you generally need to use natural fiber yarns. When you felt, you create a project and then wash it hot water to cause it to shrink and become thicker. Cottons or wools are traditionally what is used most in this process.

It depends on the weight of the yarn.

If you're trying to use an older pattern that only mentions yarn type and weight... you'll need to compare the pattern's desired gauge. Compare this number to yarns that knit up at a similar gauge.

When you find a yarn that is the same gauge, divide the total required weight by the weight of each skein. This tells you the total number of skeins you'll need for your pattern.

In knitting, a rib is a type of stitch pattern created by alternating knit and purl stitches (For instance, Knit 1, purl 1 or knit 2, purl 2). This technique creates vertical, textural stripes called ribs.

There are many variations on rib stitches. For more information and for access to many stitch patterns, visit this website: http://www.knittingpatterncentral.com/directory/stitches.php

Knitting a scarf for a teddy bear would be the same as knitting one for a human being. Just cast on a much smaller number. The size will depend on how big your teddy is. You may want to use a sport yarn since it will be so small.

Crochet is both a verb, a noun, and an adjective, but is used mostly as a verb.

Verb: I am going to crochet a hat.

It describes the act of creating something out of yarn with a hook, following the rules of crochet.

Noun: Crochet is my favourite craft.

The noun form is used less often than the verb or adjective. Some may even say that it is not a valid part of speech and that the proper sentence for the example above would be "Crocheting is my favourite craft", turning Crochet into a gerund.

Adjective: That is a crochet doll.

Describes something that has been crocheted.

You can find local stockists of Lion branded yarn by going to their official website and enetering your zip code / postcode and selecting your country and then pressing search.

The more complicated method is to tear out the row and reknit the row. If you have knitted a few rows, and you see the project getting wider, knit two stitches together. Depending on the type of yarn, you may not even be able to see the mistake. Knitting two stitches together, may make an unveven, or hole appearance in the work, but it will prevent the project from getting wider.

Cable knit cardigans can be found in many clothing stores. Some specific ones may include Mexx, Old Navy, or The Bay. If you are having trouble finding a cable knit cardigan, you can always ask employees for help locating specific products.

It is impossible to say definitively since every pattern will use a different amount, plus the amount needed for your particular tension will be different. If you are using different colors or one color throughout will also make a difference. The weight of the yarn used would make a difference as well. For these purposes, I will assume worsted weight yarn.

I found a post where an afghan 60 x 80 (top of a queen size bed), which is 4800 sq in, would use approx. 11 skeins of Red Heart Super Saver. Assuming the 7 ounce skeins, that would be 77 ounces. You would need a bit more than that since your afghan will be slightly larger.

For a king size afghan, one poster used 112 ounces, and the other used 104 ounces. A king size mattress is 76 x 80 which is pretty close to the size you need. Your 68 x 88 blanket would be 5984 sq in. and 76 x 80 would be 6080 sq in., a difference of only 96 sq in.

If you are using multiple colors, you will need xx amount of each color, which may mean having leftover yarn of some colors, but that amount needs to be included in the ounces purchased.

If you are working with one color, you could make a sample row or round in a similar yarn type and measure how much yarn it takes. Then multiple that amount by how many rows or pattern rows you need to do. This will only be accurate if your rows are the same throughout, or if you make one complete "pattern" of your afghan.

If you are using a pattern, the pattern of course should tell you how many ounces are needed. If it says only "xx skeins of xx type of yarn", then find that yarn online and see how many ounces or yards are in that yarn and multiple it out.

If you are making squares, then you can make one square, rip it back and see how much would be needed, plus an allowance for assembly and edging.

Dope Dyed Yarn is a synthetic Yarn where the Polymer, before the extrusion process, is mixed with dye and and extruded fibres are then coloured.web site polyesteryarn.com.cn

This gives a yarn with excellant colour fastness and light fastness characteristics.

When they can't afford to go out and get drunk, they sit at home and knit!

Knitting has appeared to have originated in Arabia over 3,000 years ago. Some items knitted by nomadic tribesmen of that period exist to this day.

I've not used the Patons yet but I did buy a similar type fiber and made a ruffle scarf. You wont really be casting on. The band side is NOT the side your needles will be using. You will be using the holes along the other side. Slip needle in an out of holes and then turn for first row.

Patons has instructions for the scarf on their website. The link is below.

Check out all their other patterns too. All the major yarn brands have free patterns so they can give you ideas for using their yarns. LionBrand.com has thousands of free patterns. RedHeart has lots and so does Bernat.

Good Luck with your scarf!

....you answered your own question - it's called "threading a needle".

The number of stitches you need per inch depends on the type of fabric you are sewing. The weight, thickness and type of fabric sewn will determine the stitch length you use. In a quilt, you will have fewer stitches, such a six or eight per inch. For a seam on clothing, a medium weight fabric will use 10 - 12 stitches, for heavier fabrics, 8 -10 will work better.

In knitting and crochet, the stitches per inch are determined by the size of your needles, the tension you use when working the stitches, and the weight of the yarn or thread. The pattern you use will specify the stitches and needles you need, called the gauge.

Knit garments consumption is calculative process. By this process we calculate how much raw material will needed or used for the following knit garments/items. If want to know how much fabric will be need for a t-shirt then, at first you should know some information regarding t-shirt. Required information listed below:

1) body length of the t-shirt

2) Sleeve length of the t-shirt.

3) Sewing allowance of the t-shirt.

4) 1/2 chest width of the t-shirt.

5) Fabric GSM of the T-shirt.

6) Process wastage of the T-shirt.

If you have these information then, you will be able to calculate the Knit garments consumption. Or also you can visit Knit Garments Consumption for a ready form for calculate the consumption. You just put the data and will be get the consumption.

Thanks & Best regards
