  • This Tutorial Will Explain What a Balanced Plied Yarn Is, and H
    An HJS Studio Tutorial: To Chose or Not to Choose an Electric Spinner Introduction I've been spinning since March 1986, when I got started with a homemade drop spindle, some very coarse and ugly carded wool, and a little booklet about drop spinning—almost as low-tech as you can get. Today I'm the happy owner of an electric spinner, which I use almost exclusively. I still drop spin, especially with very fine, short fibers, and still use my Ashford Traveller when I won't be around electricity, but the espinner is my prime choice for all other spinning. This page is for those who are contemplating purchasing an espinner, those who can't understand why someone would use an espinner, and production spinners with speed on their minds. I wel- come specific questions; contact me any time if you think I can help. Reasons to get an espinner seem to fall into two main categories: Speed, and physical need. Speed I approached the purchase of an espinner from the speed point of view, and have learned a lot along the way about what speed really is on any spinning device. A brief diversion to explain what the ratio on a wheel is. It's essentially the number of times the flyer turns each time the drive wheel is turned one time. It's expressed so: 30:1 (read as "thirty to one") which means your flyer turned 30 times for one full turn of the drive wheel. Each turn of the flyer puts one twist into your fiber.

  • Mending As Practice and Expression Pocosin Arts Online - August 2021 Material Suggestions
    Mending as Practice and Expression Pocosin Arts Online - August 2021 Material Suggestions I want this experience to ft with what you have on hand and what you want to learn! I will link to sources of some supplies I like below, but there is no need to purchase anything unless you want to and think you will use it. You can also check the links to compare supplies to those you may already have. And of course you can get supplies anywhere you like. The most important thing you will need is some fabric scraps or worn-out textles to practce mending on (not your absolute favorite thing to start with). There are two broad categories of fabrics, based on how they are made; woven (like jeans, dress shirts, and sheets) and knited (like sweaters, socks, and T-shirts). We will talk a lot more about these in class. Each type lends itself to somewhat diferent tools and techniques. If you can, I encourage you to fnd a few scraps of each type to practce on, ideally in fabrics that are similar to the items you want to mend. These will also be a good source of material to cut patches from. I will be in touch before our class starts to fnd out about the projects you want to work on. For now, here are some general suggestons of materials and tools you may want to have on hand. In the meantme, feel free to contact me with any questons! [email protected] Threads You may want to use anything from sewing thread to wool yarn in your mending, depending on what you want to fx.

  • How to Slip Knot & Chain Stitch
    How to Slip Knot & Chain Stitch Appearance in pattern - ch Crochet usually begins with a series of chain stitches called a beginning or foundation chain. A slip knot is the first step in most crochet projects. We will begin by making a slip knot on the crochet hook about 6 inches from the free end of the yarn. You will first start by creating a loop with the yarn. Be sure that the free end of the yarn is dangling behind your loop (see illustration 3). Insert the crochet hook through the center of the loop and hook the free end (see illustration 4). Pull this through and up onto the working area of the crochet hook (see illustration 5). Pull the free yarn end to tighten the loop (see illustration 6). The loop on the crochet hook should be firm, but loose enough to slide back and forth easily on the hook. Be sure you still have about a 6-inch yarn end. Once you have the yarn wrapped, hold the base of the slip knot with the thumb and index finger of your left hand. Step 2: Bring the yarn over the crochet hook from back to front and hook it (see illustration 8). Draw hooked yarn through the loop of the slip knot on the hook and up onto the working area of the crochet hook (see arrow on illustration 9); you have now made one chain stitch (see illustration 10). Step 3: Again, hold the base of the slip knot and bring the yarn over the crochet hook from back to front (see illustration 11).

  • Patons 220 Aran Knits from Stitchcraft
    1 liT 1 1 L 1 1 1 1 ISm ARAN KNITS from stitchcraft For centuries, people in the fishing villages around the coasts of the British Isles have been knitting beautiful textured and patterned sweaters. In the Aran Isles, off the West coast of Ireland, the style of these traditional sweaters has developed into highly textured garments with all-over patterning. Each traditional stitch pattern has a special name and significance, some recalling everyday things in the lives of the fishing communities and others being directly traceable to 3,000 year old Celtic culture, when symbols were of religious importance. In an age where mass-produced goods are all around us, the charm of this type of hand knitted sweater is unbeatable. In this book, the second in our Special Series from Stitchcraft, we have chosen a collection of beautiful hand-knits in Aran style for all the family, using both traditional and combinations of traditional stitches. Each one is knitted in Batons Capstan, a yarn specially designed for Aran knitting, and now including many bold, bright colours in its range.
