Spanish Moss Shawl SPANISH MOSS SHAWL Designed and woven by John Mullarkey Overview: Inspired by a gift skein of sock yarn from a friend, and enhanced by not being able to find the same dye lot, this shawl was woven with a Zoom Loom and joined with crochet. The color and drape reminded me of the Spanish moss I saw hanging in trees when I lived in East Texas. Difficulty rating: Easy weaving with crochet join Size: 70” width; short edges 50” Yarn: Dream in Color Smooshy (450yds/4 oz.), Cloud Jungle, 1 skein (MC). Dream in Color Smooshy, either a different dye lot of Cloud Jungle, or a different but analogous colorway (CC). Crochet thread, #10 (350 yards), black or coordinating color. Other notions, equipment or tools: size 6 crochet hook; tapestry or yarn needle; scissors. Weaving and Assembly: ■ Weave 56 squares using the Zoom Loom in color MC. Work in all ends as you weave. ■ Weave 22 squares in color CC. Work in all ends as you weave. Total of 78 squares woven. ■ Using the layout chart below, join the squares by crochet- ing a single crochet (sc) in each loop pair. ■ Chain (ch) 3, sc in loop pair of adjoining square using cro- chet thread. ■ Repeat above for all rows and columns of squares. ■ After all squares have been joined, crochet a border of sc in loop pair, ch 3 around. You may want to do ch 2 where cor- ners meet to tighten up the joined edges. Finishing: Hand wash in lukewarm water. Roll in a towel to remove excess water. Lay flat to dry. Press if needed.

    Cherry Candy Cane Potholder 10 inches by 10 inches A Knitting Pattern by Liz Chandler @PurlsAndPixels MATERIALS Two 87-Yard Skeins of Lion Brand Yarns Wool- No. 17/12 MM 32-inch circular needles or 14- Ease Thick and Quick, Hudson Bay (or your inch straight needles (or size needed to obtain preferred color). Alternatively, divide one 87- gauge) yard skein into two matching balls, ensuring the yarn colors will line up when knit with two Measuring tape strands held together. Tapestry needle Uses about 87 yards (5 oz.) Cherry Candy Cane Potholder A Knitting Pattern by Liz Chandler @PurlsAndPixels Size 10 inch by 10 inch square About this Pattern This extra-thick, oversize potholder is made by doubling up strands of super bulky yarn. When using a self-striping yarn, as recommended, make sure you use a single dye lot and line up the striping colors before you begin knitting. Using two skeins from the same dye lot ensures you will have enough yarn for a complete square; however, you may try dividing one skein equally in separate balls. Shown in the color “Hudson Bay,” this quick knitting project is reminiscent of cherry candy canes. It can make a fun holiday piece, but is subdued enough to be used year-round. Gauge 7 stitches and 11 rows in stockinette = 4 inches Abbreviations k = Knit. _____________________________________________________________________________________ ©2017, Liz Chandler of PurlsAndPixels.

  • Updated June 2009 CROCHETED OR KNITTED LEPROSY BANDAGES
    Instructions for Making Leprosy Bandages - Updated June 2009 CROCHETED OR KNITTED LEPROSY BANDAGES Patterns/Instructions: Finished Size: approximately 3 1/2 to 4 inches wide by 4 feet long. If it shrinks up to be a bit smaller when washed...don't worry that is fine.They are used to wrap everything from tiny fingers to the stumps of lost legs and feet. No two applications are the same so our bandages can vary a bit as well. Material specifications: 100% mercerized crochet cotton – size #10 - white, cream or ecru (no irritating dyes). This is commonly called “bedspread cot- ton” (1 'ball/skein' will usually make two bandages.) Suggested brands include: South Maid D54, DMC Traditions, Aunt Lydia’s Classic Crochet Thread, Cro Sheen and JP Coats. You can find these online as well as at your local Wal-Mart, fabric or craft store. Tightness: The ones shown in pictures on the blog are good examples of how the bandages should look. It should be a 'medium-tight', not strangling, but fairly close, with breathable holes. If yours look Mesh-like they are too loose - please switch to a smaller crochet hook (size D) or knitting needle (size 2). These are tighter and made with smaller thread/yarn (no worsted weight) than the ones Global Health used to send to India as the climate and needs are different in Vietnam. Knitted Leprosy Bandage: Use size 2 (2.75 mm = UK 12) knitting needles if you knit average or loosely, size 3 (3.25 mm = UK 10) needles if you knit tightly.
