Broomstick Lace Allison Bourne – [email protected] The origins of Broomstick lace date back to the pioneer days. Women, while travelling in covered wagons west would use a crude crochet hook and the end of a broomstick or dowel. In the 60’s and 70’s is was reborn into a style of crochet called “jiffy lace”. The basic premise of the style is using a large knitting needle or dowel and a crochet hook that corresponds to your yarn. Those of us that got hooked on the ‘condo’ style of knitting will have the large knitting kneedles.. So pull them out and lets get started… Broomstick Lace is a repeat of 4 stitches. 4 x the number of Stitches + one for the base row. The base rows are worked in single crochet. http://www.stitchdiva.com has some really interesting patterns and tutorials. I will also be putting up a tutorial of our session on my blog http://knitmenace.typepad.com . Broomstick Technique Pull a loop up through the first stitch Slip the Loop onto the needle Continue across the row Slip the loops off of the Large needle Pick up the first four loops on your crochet hook. Single Crochet through all four loops Chain Three Place Three double crochet’s in the same space as the single crochet. Pickup four more loops and place 4 Double Crochet’s into the centre. Repeat. Making A scarf… Chain 60 + 1 for your turning row. Single Croche two rows to set the base of your scarf. Begin BroomStick. Continue until your scarf is the length you want. Single Crochet Two Rows to match your base row. .

4-H Crocheting Project Member Guide
4-H Crocheting Project Member Guide Crocheting is one of the oldest needlework arts. To crochet means to form yarn or thread into a fabric using a hook. Its name comes from the French word croche, meaning “hook.” The crochet hook was one of many tools first used to make delicate lace. As time went on, more stitches and designs came into being, and crocheting became a separate art. Crocheting appeals to many people because it can be used to make a variety of creations, such as scarves, caps, vests, sweaters, purses, belts, lace, doilies, tablecloths, afghans, pillow covers, and bedspreads. In the 4-H Crocheting Project, you can learn to: • Crochet articles for yourself and others • Select, use, and care for crocheting tools • Work and share with others in your club • Keep simple records of your project and activities The 4-H Crocheting project is divided into six phases. Skills to learn and suggested articles to make are on page 2. Your club leader will teach you how to do basic crochet stitches and help you find patterns to use as you learn. When you reach the advanced phases, you’ll need to choose patterns from a variety of pattern books, needlework books, and magazines. You can find these at newsstands, notions counters, fabric stores, or specialty shops that sell yarn and thread. If you want to show others what you learn in the Crocheting project, check with your leader about exhibiting articles at fairs or other community events. If you make an article to wear, you might like to model in your county 4-H fashion revue.

Crocheted Broomstick Lace Bracelet with Marly Bird
Crocheted Broomstick Lace Bracelet with Marly Bird Chapter 1 - Broomstick Lace Bracelet Make Broomstick Lace Bracelet - Hi, I'm Marly Bird, proud spokesperson for Red Heart Yarns, ^and I'm gonna show you how to do the broomstick lace. ^This is a pretty little pattern ^that stitches up really quick. ^For this cuff, I am using Creme de la Creme cotton, and you only need one color but I'm showing you two different colors. I'm using a G crochet hook, a pair of scissors, a tapestry needle, and you only need one knitting needle, anywhere size from a US 17 to a US 50. As you can imagine, this lace stitch got its name from actual broomsticks. Back in the day, they used to use broomsticks to create this beautiful stitch pattern. That's why these knitting needles are so large. The stitch pattern itself is determined, the size is determined by the size of the needle. I'm using a US size 19. We're gonna begin with a slipknot on our hook, and then we're gonna chain 12. For this particular broomstick pattern, we're doing a multiple of four stitches, meaning we're gonna have four loops per broomstick. It's possible to put five, six, seven, eight, how many loops you want. It all depends on whatever pattern you're going to be using. Once you have 12, extend the final loop that's on your hook, and we're gonna place that loop directly onto the knitting needle. Once it's on your knitting needle, you're gonna have to readjust so that way you're holding your knitting needle, and your work is coming out towards the right if you're right-handed, towards the left if you're left-handed.
