Cable Knit Scarf

I have started knitting a cable knit scarf today! Is a lovely cream wool, the same as the fingerless gloves I created in my previous post. This is the current status, but will keep updating!

Fingerless Gloves no.2 finished

I have finishes the gloves. I am very happy with them! I am going to experiment and see if I can make them have the optional mitten over fingers which a lot of gloves have these days.

Fingerless Glove No.2!

I am making another pair of fingerless gloves. I have made one so far, which is yet to be sewn to create the glove!

Beret no 2

Well I said I was getting on well with my second beret but it has been a bit if a disaster! I ran out of wool and isn't big enough! Here is it at its unfinished but finished state! Haha

Beret Hat Number 2!

I was very impressed with my first hat so I have decided to make another! I am using a different wool, which looks like 'blue denim'. Its a lovely colour and will match a lot of things I have!

I will use the same video as last time, but I think I may either add a flower or pom pom to it when finished!

This is its status so far...

FINISHED SNOOD!

I have finally finished the snood and I am very pleased with it! Its very soft and is going to make an excellent Christmas present, along with the matching gloves!

Snood very nearly finished!

Previously in the post about the fingerless glove I spoke about a matching snood! I just wanted to post a status update that we are almost at completion! Hurray!

I'm pretty chuffed with it so far! It a basic rib stitch, as I didn't want the stitch or pattern to be over powering as it is more about the snood design itself. 

Here it is at the moment!

Crochet Beret/ Beanie

I done this all this evening, didn't take me long at all! As i said in the previous post, I am yet to learn how to use circular or more than 2 needles, so if I wanted to knit a hat it wouldn't be possible so I decided to crochet one! This was very easy to follow and I would recommend watching the video! Has a very good step by step!

The hat is modelled by my lovely friend! :)

I absolutely love the turquoise colour, is a lovely warming autumn colour!

Here is the video:

Fingerless Glove!

I am not one of the expert knitters who can use circular needles or more than 2 needles yet so I am yet to learn how to knit gloves and socks! But the first step for me was to make these fingerless gloves!

They were very easy! Simple knit & purl again, and I decreased the stitches by 2 to create a smaller size for the wrist :)

I am currently making a matching snood! So that will be posted very soon!

Cheap easy T-shirt scarf!

I know this isn't knitting or crochet but I really wanted to talk about it! I watched this video on YouTube and I thought it was such a brilliant idea! So i tried it and it passed!

I bought a £, XXL navy t-shirt from the men's section in Primark, cut it in strips, pulled the strips and gather them and bam, you have a lovely scarf!

Here it is!

And this is the video I used:

Enjoy!

Knitted Cushion

This was just an experiment really! It consists of a rib stitch- 2 knit, 2 purl repeated, reversed on back row

I got the cushion itself from Wilkinson for ridiculously cheap, like £2 or something!

It was quick to do and effective I think! :)

Headbands!

I had a bit of an obsession making these if I'm honest! They consist of a variety of stitches and styles.

The general style was of: 2 Knit, 2 Purl then a cable with 6 knit stitches and 2 Knight and 2 Purl
On the back row I would reverse these stitches, and do the cable every 7 rows


Here are some examples

On this one I crocheted a flower to give it a more personal touch!

These headbands are a real variety! The closest one is a seed stitch, and the second furthest is plain knit & purl with a rib and knit bow

Welcome World!

Just wanted to introduce myself! I am a knitting & crochet over-enthusiast! I love experimenting and learning new things! I have generally taught myself to do most the things I have made :) 

I think many more teenagers (me being 18) should do more of these arts and crafts! They are brilliant, fun and cheap things to do and I love it! 

So I hope you enjoy reading through my blog, learn some new things and also think of things to wear/ style!
