  • Orange: video demo of stitches

    I have hesitated posting the videos on the patterns.  I have edited, re-edited; deleted and started over a number of times.

    My husband finally grabbed both hands in his and told me to stop, get it edited and post. Quit trying to make it perfect.  So I am going to offer what I have and hopefully improve as I go along.

    For the knitted project, the Vertical Weave is a 2 row pattern repeat.  Here I take you through each step. I hope this helps you understand and become more comfortable with the pattern.

    For the crochet project, the pattern is called Alternate Stitch. At first it looks difficult and deceiving, but once you work a few rows you will easily slip right into it.

    How is your project coming along?  Did the video help?  Leave a comment and share your thoughts with others.

  • Name that Newsletter

    ****EDITED 10/18/09:  I am adding several pattern books, yarn and miscellaneous accessories from my stash to the prize package. ****

    I have been publishing the newsletter under the name Knit In Prayer.  Several crocheters have commented to me this leaves them out. So, I need a new name for the newsletter.

    So, how about a contest! Starting today and running through October 20th.

    As a comment below, enter your idea for a new name. Be sure to enter your email address so I can contact you.  The email address will not be visible to others.

    If I choose your name idea you will receive a PDF version of the “Knitting and Crochet Bible Study Book 2: the Proverbs 31 Woman scheduled to be released mid-November. **and the items listed above**
