  • 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.

  • Patons 220 Aran Knits from Stitchcraft
    1 liT 1 1 L 1 1 1 1 ISm ARAN KNITS from stitchcraft For centuries, people in the fishing villages around the coasts of the British Isles have been knitting beautiful textured and patterned sweaters. In the Aran Isles, off the West coast of Ireland, the style of these traditional sweaters has developed into highly textured garments with all-over patterning. Each traditional stitch pattern has a special name and significance, some recalling everyday things in the lives of the fishing communities and others being directly traceable to 3,000 year old Celtic culture, when symbols were of religious importance. In an age where mass-produced goods are all around us, the charm of this type of hand knitted sweater is unbeatable. In this book, the second in our Special Series from Stitchcraft, we have chosen a collection of beautiful hand-knits in Aran style for all the family, using both traditional and combinations of traditional stitches. Each one is knitted in Batons Capstan, a yarn specially designed for Aran knitting, and now including many bold, bright colours in its range.
