  • Apples Catalogue 2019
    ADAMS PEARMAIN Herefordshire, England 1862 Oct 15 Nov Mar 14 Adams Pearmain is a an old-fashioned late dessert apple, one of the most popular varieties in Victorian England. It has an attractive 'pearmain' shape. This is a fairly dry apple - which is perhaps not regarded as a desirable attribute today. In spite of this it is actually a very enjoyable apple, with a rich aromatic flavour which in apple terms is usually described as Although it had 'shelf appeal' for the Victorian housewife, its autumnal colouring is probably too subdued to compete with the bright young things of the modern supermarket shelves. Perhaps this is part of its appeal; it recalls a bygone era where subtlety of flavour was appreciated - a lovely apple to savour in front of an open fire on a cold winter's day. Tree hardy. Does will in all soils, even clay. AERLIE RED FLESH (Hidden Rose, Mountain Rose) California 1930’s 19 20 20 Cook Oct 20 15 An amazing red fleshed apple, discovered in Aerlie, Oregon, which may be the best of all red fleshed varieties and indeed would be an outstandingly delicious apple no matter what color the flesh is. A choice seedling, Aerlie Red Flesh has a beautiful yellow skin with pale whitish dots, but it is inside that it excels. Deep rose red flesh, juicy, crisp, hard, sugary and richly flavored, ripening late (October) and keeping throughout the winter. The late Conrad Gemmer, an astute observer of apples with 500 varieties in his collection, rated Hidden Rose an outstanding variety of top quality.

  • Woven Yarn Bracelet Instructions
    Woven Yarn Bracelets 1. Start by laying out your materials (the first 4 items are included in your kit from the Bailey Library): 3 Straws 3 Pieces of yarn, each cut three times as long as your straws A ball of yarn, or 1 very long piece 1 pipe cleaner Masking Tape Scissors 2. Begin by taping the straws together at one end, so they lay flat. 3. Next, thread each of the three short pieces of yarn through the straws (1 each). To make this easier, hook one end of the yarn with the pipe cleaner and draw the pipe cleaner through the straw. If you don’t have a pipe cleaner, try pushing the yarn through with a knitting needle or a thin wooden skewer. 4. At the taped end of the straws, pull enough yarn through that you can make a knot and still leave a 2”-3” tail. 5. Tape the straws to your table using masking tape. 6. Next, using the end from a ball of yarn or the very long piece of yarn in your kit, make a double knot on the left straw. 7. Start weaving! Take your yarn under the middle straw, then over and around the last straw. Repeat back and forth. Every 3-4 passes, push your yarn up to the top so that your stitches stay uniform and don’t get too loose. Do this until the bracelet is as long as you’d like it. 8. When your bracelet is as long as you want it, tie a SINGLE knot around the last straw you were weaving on.

This can be fixed with some steam blocking. It won’t be noticeable after sewing. • Each square has at least 2 rounds of border. For the last round of the border I used the same color for each square (the dark gray).

  • Back & Forth Neckwarmer Cowl My Materials
    Back & Forth Neckwarmer Cowl By Donna Herron This colorful cowl was designed using slipped stitches and knit stitches to imitate the look of weaving. Similar to my Reindeer Tracks Cowl pattern, this cowl pattern was created to show of the changing colors of variegated yarn but would also look wonderful in a solid color. This pattern is easy and appropriate for beginners who are familiar with knitting in the round and slipped stitches. This pattern is shown as a long cowl that can be doubled around the neck for a snug fit (about 36 inches in length). However, you can adjust it to knit a shorter draping cowl, or make it longer for a looser doubled cowl. Please remember: the slipped stitches can tighten up your gauge as you knit. Be careful not to pull the yarn carried in front or behind the stitches too tightly, as it will make it difficult to knit and pull the cowl out of shape. If you are a tight knitter, you may need to use a needle size or two larger. My Materials about 200 yards of worsted weight yarn (I bought this beautiful variegated merino yarn from Insouciant Studios on Etsy.com) Size #7 and #8 circular needles (20 inch length) or size needed for gauge one stitch marker © 2013 Donna Herron. No part of this pattern may be copied or reproduced in any way without permission from the author/designer. Knitting Gauge 4.5 stitches per inch or 18 stitches = 4 inches Terms Used in this Pattern rnd = round sl = slip stitch (all stitches in this pattern are slipped purlwise) yb = bring yarn to back of work yf = bring yarn to front of work Sizes I cast on 184 stitches for my long cowl.
