I’m currently updating the look and usability of Knitting-and.com and I’ve broken the search function for the blog. I’ll have it fixed by Monday Aussie eastern time, I hope. I mean I promise 😉
This week’s flower loom video is a special request from tinach on Ravelry. I talk a whole lot about what makes a good yarn for flower looming and give a couple of pointers on making every flower work out the way you want 🙂
My little Charlie really loves Doctor Who, Chameleon Circuit (and his sister).
Here’s a video his sister made combines all those things in one. I cried with the laughing at the cuteness but that may just be because I’m his Mum. Or maybe not. I especially like the bit near the end. New lyrics, yay! 🙂
Here’s the video he’s watching. An Awful Lot of Running by Chameleon Circuit.
But wait, there’s more!
This week’s flower loom tutorial is all about the twirl centre. This style of centre can be made on any flower, any shape, size, or material. I hope you like it. I have about another 110 flower loom videos to go 🙂
I had to learn some new techniques to make the intro more interesting, so I practiced some of them in an animation that I call “Strange Garden”. It’s a simple piece made with images and footage that I had on my computer but I had a lot of fun with it and will probably make more in the future (with better graphics and a storyline and everything!)
Tomorrow, more cooking!
How to crochet the African flower motif with a loomed flower centre.
This week’s video is a response to a request from a member of Ravelry. It was such a fun challenge that I couldn’t resist (and a great excuse to buy a flower loom I didn’t have in my collection)!
You can make the centre flower in any style you like. I hope to see people making lots of different variations 🙂
In this week’s craft video I show you how to crochet three different centres on your flowers. This is a brand new technique to Knitting-and.com that I haven’t shown before 🙂
