  1. #Fiberuary -#FixesAndMending

    Seeing all those pictures of other people doing the great jobs in mending things, I finally succumbed and got out a pair of socks that had a hole.

    The thread was broken, I suspect it was caught somewhere because the break was rather clean. It were two threads and I tried an invisible mend. Only partially successful, but it's at the ankle so not that visible anyway.

  2. #Fiberuary -#texture: #weaving is the newest addition to my #fibercraft interests. This is the first project that I did on my 8 shaft #tableloom .

    The yarn I used is a cotton-sock-yarn (wool-cotton-nylon blend). And because I'm adventerous I started with a complicated looking 4 shaft pattern. And because I'm really adventerous I choose a draft that I had to convert from treadle-tie-up to lift-plan. But it worked - and I love twill weaving.

  3. Oh! I did write instructions for the drippy picot bind-off I used on the mermaid socks. It made the rounds on Tumblr. Here's a link. #knitting #bindoff #picot #Fiberuary

    Zum Thema dieser Woche ein #Osterei aus meiner #Klöppel|phase, hergestellt aus #bunt verlaufend eingefärbtem Baumwollgarn: das Ei mit Rand im Ganzschlag und einer Flächenfüllung mit Formschlägen. Es wird bald wieder den #Osterstrauß schmücken.
