Thanks tumrub for a very nice SP package for January. I received it on Saturday and I will post pics later today.

Really great packages, everyone. I'm tempted to teach myself to knit just so I can get one of those cute knitted pin cushions that JuanitaBean received. And I love that purple fabric box that Jaba received. I do have the pattern that that, so really have no excuse.
Yeah I crochet and have tried to teach myself to knit and lets just say NO that ain't gonna happen. |
LOL I have the opposite problem. I knit but have had no luck learning to crochet. The knitted pincushion I made was just knitted rectangles. I then sewed each rectangle into a loop and folded it lengthwise. The biggest loop is folded over lid from a spray can but I've also seen them folded over detergent lids.

I also found this in my files, but unfortunately don't have the web address. I haven't tried the pattern, but it would make a bit larger one than the link above. how to do it:<o:p></o:p> I used worsted weight yarn and a US7 hook (but I’m sure a G/6 would be fine).<o:p></o:p> Using hdc stitches, you’re going to make 4 different sized rectangles. They are each begun by chaining 21 and making hdcs across.<o:p></o:p> The first one made is the center one (my light blue). I did 10 rows. The second one, my coral, is 12 rows. The third one (my gray) is 14 rows, and the last (red) one is 16 rows. Leave long tails for sewing.<o:p></o:p> To assemble, sew each rectangle together so that each one makes a tube. Do this by sewing the bottom chain edge to the top row’s edge. Now you should have four tubes of varying widths. Take each tube and roll the top edge down so that the top and bottom edges are even. As you can see, the rolled edge faces up, and you just put the smaller ones inside the larger ones. If you want, you can sew the edges on the bottom together to make it more secure, but I didn’t need to. [ATTACH=CONFIG]458020[/ATTACH] I like the bigger one much more. |

I do take a pic of what I am sending LindaR, just because I have been asked to post them so many times. Some can't seem to post because of various reasons, dial up internet, Win 8 seems to be a problem, or just don't have a camera or need to borrow one. I like seeing the pics too, gives me new ideas as to what I might look for to exchange.
