This Tutorial Will Explain What a Balanced Plied Yarn Is, and H
An HJS Studio Project: Knit Shetland Tote Bag This is another project inspired by the spinning group I belong to. They decided to make knitted totebags the group project in 2002 (see also Mitered Mitten Set, for my response to our 2004 project). One spinner provided photocopies of a pattern from a knitting magazine as a starting point. Some members of the group did exactly that bag, while others experi- mented in various ways. My bag is probably the farthest from the origi- nal pattern—they basically have just two things in common—they're handknit, and they're totebags! I hope to be able to get a photo of all the bags to put on the website at some point, but for now will have to settle for mine alone. This isn't an exact pattern, but rather a narra- tive of one process of creating an item of handspun yarn. Anyone who would like to can copy the process and come up with something similar, but I hope most readers will be inspired by the process to come up with something totally, uniquely their own. The first thing that comes to mind in dis- cussing something like this is I didn't follow the pattern. It was intarsia, I prefer fair isle; it had sections knitted back-and-forth, I prefer all circular knitting; etc. I just can't follow a pattern, no matter what! I've always been like that, even before I began to knit. A little of the 60s rebellion sunk in, though I wasn't quite yet a teen back then? Still, the pattern was inspirational.

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.

Basic Fair Isle Hat
BASIC FAIR ISLE HAT This is a new pattern for my Basic Hats collection. The heart-shaped stitches of contrasting color make this hat look so joyful! They are accomplished with the use of the fair isle technique, which might seem a bit scary and complex from the first glance. But if you start learning it from something easy - like this hat - you’ll fall in love! Chunky yarn makes this knit really fast, and two-colored design gives endless possibilities for color combination. You can adjust the pattern to another yarn, change the size or length of the finished garment, add a pompom or skip this step (if someone can actually do that!). The pattern contains links to the video tutorial that makes the process more easy to understand.
