Deborah Levine's Simple Knitted Market Deborah Levine’s Simple Knitted Market Bag This is a great flexible market bag you make by knitting a square for the bottom, then creating sides by picking up stitches and knitting on a circular needle. Handles are added at the end. Yarn: Make your bag out of sturdy material such as hemp, linen, or cotton. Needles: Size 8 straight or circular needles; size 10 ½ circular needle. Skills needed: casting on, knitting, purling, binding off, picking up stitches, knitting two together, yarn-over. Cast on 20 stitches and work garter stitch – knitting every row -- for 40 rows long. Note that every two rows create one ridge so 40 rows equals 20 ridges. Bind off. Using a size 10 ½ 16-inch circular needle, pick up 80 stitches around the square – 20 on each side. Here’s how: Pick up one stitch for each ridge along the sides of the work and one stitch for each cast on and bound off stitch along the ends. After picking up all stitches, place a marker on the needle and begin working in the round using this 2-round pattern: Round 1: * Knit 2 together, yarn over; repeat from * to end of round. Round 2: Knit every stitch Measure the bag by stretching it as if it were full of groceries. When body of bag is long enough, work several rounds in garter stitch for the top border. Remember that garter stitch when worked in the round is knit one round, purl one round. Repeat these two rounds until you have 3 or 4 ridges. Bind off. Handles can be worked in garter stitch or I-cord. Use the smaller needle so that they are not quite so stretchy. Handles can be worked separately and then attached to bag or they can be worked from stitches picked up from the border of the bag. I-cord: Cast on three stitches. Knit. Slip stitches back onto left needle. Knit. Slip stitches back onto left needle. Knit. Repeat until cord is long enough. Note: You do not need to use two sizes of needle as indicated in the pattern. If only using one size, not that the larger will make the bag looser and it will knit up faster. The smaller needle will make a tighter bag but will take you longer to knit. Deborah Levine’s dish cloth with a loop for hanging This is a great absorbent cloth that is a rectangle – but knit in a diamond shape starting with three stitches, increasing to 35-40, then decreasing to three again. The loop is optional. Yarn – heavy cotton is best as it is absorbent and fairly sturdy. Your local yarn shop should know what will work. Needles – Size 6, 7, or 8. It depends on how tightly you knit and how tightly-knit you want the dish cloth to be. Skills needed: How to cast on, knit, increase by making two stitches out of one, decrease by knitting two together, and bind off. Directions Cast on three stitches. Work as follows: Knit into front and back of first stitch, then knit to end of row. You will have 4 stitches. Repeat this until you have 35-40 stitches. Then work the following row: Knit 2 together, work to end of row. Repeat this until you have three stitches left. You can make a small tube-like loop for hanging. Work I-cord on these three stitches as follows: Cast on three stitches. Knit. Slip stitches back onto left needle. Knit. Slip stitches back onto left needle. Knit. Etc. Repeat until cord is long enough to make a loop. Bind off. Stitch end of loop onto body of dishcloth. Use with pleasure.

  • 3Needle Bind-Of
    3Needle Bind-of The 3needle bind-off is a popular method for joining live stitches. Unlike Kitchener stitch it isn't invisible, but is fairly unnoticeable if the bind-off is worked with the right sides of the work together. Personally, I like to work this technique with the wrong sides of the work together, so that it becomes a feature of your knitting – it creates a strong, structured ridge that can look very effective and add additional detail to a piece. This bind-off is commonly used for seams where extra support is needed, for instance shoulder seams, where it's bulk helps give a garment shape and prolong the life of the seam. To do this bind-ff, you will need a spare needle, ideally slightly larger than the working needles, and some waste yarn, which would normally be the tail recently cut after knitting has finished. The amount of yarn needed will vary depending on your project, and 3 times the length of the seam to be joined is a good estimate. Because you are working a k2tog and a cast-off in one go, your work can get a bit tight, and a tight seam doesn't have much flexibility. This is why it is recommended that the 3rd needle be a slightly larger gauge than the working needles. In this example shown here, the 3needle bind-off is being worked as a decorative seam, so the wrong sides of the work are together. Also, the stitches on the back needle have been released from a provisional cast-on.

  • Cactus Knitting Challenge Pattern and Supplies List
    Cactus Knitting Challenge Pattern and Supplies List Supplies • Some green coloured yarn – you don’t need a lot of it (any shade works.) • Pink, White, or Purple yarn (about 1m) for making flowers on your cactus (if you like.) • A set of double pointed knitting needles (minimum of 4), smaller is better! Size 3.5 or 4 works well. • Scissors • A yarn needle for closing/finishing your project. • Some batting, an old sock or two that have lost their mate…or any scrap fabric or pillow fluff from an old pillow. • Ceramic pot, old coffee mug (espresso works well,) or another small container. You can always bring out the acrylic paints, glitter, or other craft supplies to decorate it if you like. Be sure to decorate it before you glue the cactus inside… • Some rocks, glass stones, or other heavy items to give the plant-base some weight. • A glue gun to attach your cactus to the base and secure your plant-base weights. Basic barrel cactus pattern (You can look online for other patterns depending on your skill level and/or the style of cactus you want.) 1. Measure the diameter of your plant pot/base. Cast on (use any method you like) enough stitches so that this cast-on row is approximately 1.5 times longer than the diameter of your pot; and is an EVEN number. Use a stitch marker to mark the end of your row. Row 1: Knit all stitches Row 2 (and rest of rows): K2, P2 to end. 2. When your knitting reaches 20-30cm (determine how tall you want your cactus to be) you can begin binding off using the slip-stitch decrease method.

  • Warp and Weft Knitting | Knitting | Basic Knitted Fabrics
    Weft vs. Warp Knitting Weft Warp Weft knitting. Weft knitting uses one continuous yarn to form courses, or rows of loops, across a fabric. There are three fundamental stitches in weft knitting: plain-knit, purl and rib. On a machine, the individual yarn is fed to one or more needles at a time. Weft knitting machines can produce both flat and circular fabric. Circular machines produce mainly yardage but may also produce sweater bodies, pantyhose and socks. Flatbed machines knit full garments and operate at much slower speeds. The simplest, most common filling knit fabric is single jersey. Double knits are made on machines with two sets of needles. All hosiery is produced as a filling knit process. Warp Knitting. Warp knitting represents the fastest method of producing fabric from yarns. Warp knitting differs from weft knitting in that each needle loops its own thread. The needles produce parallel rows of loops simultaneously that are interlocked in a zigzag pattern. Fabric is produced in sheet or flat form using one or more sets of warp yarns. The yarns are fed from warp beams to a row of needles extending across the width of the machine (Figure 9b). Two common types of warp knitting machines are the Tricot and Raschel machines. Raschel machines are useful because they can process all yarn types in all forms (filament, staple, combed, carded, etc.). Warp knitting can also be used to make pile fabrics often used for upholstery. Back Knitting To form a fabric by the intermeshing of loops of yam. wale course Wen €hitting Loops are formed by needles knitting the yam across the width Each weft thread is fed at right angles to the direction of fabric formation.
