This stitch pattern is the culmination of a journey that I traveled through the still-mostly-uncharted wilds of Tunisian crochet LACE, over the past year or so. I even had to create a new stitch symbol for it; also, some students needed intermediary versions of the stitch pattern to learn it in smaller steps! See issue #23 of my Crochet Inspirations Newsletter for more on this.

Yesterday morning was bright and beautiful and I should have taken myself off for a walk but I am a bit hooked on knitting bunny heads at the moment, so I sat and knitted instead. It always happens when I...

Needle punching is a technique for blending of different materials, especially synthetic materials, wools or soft leathers, with knitted fabric, without any seams or threads. Special hooked needles move vertically to make wool fibres penetrate into other fabrics, blending them together to create different styles, from geometric and minimal to very colourful baroque designs. The…

With only two months to go until we open the doors for our sixth Yarndale festival, we are getting all giddy about the fun yarny things that give the team (and visitors) a real creative buzz.

You guys, you guys!!! You have made me feel over the moon excited! from all your comments on my pop bottle curtain post. I am super excited about it, but I've learned that that doesn't necessarily mean anyone else will be (and that would have been ok too), but seriously? Over 100 comments about it? I just want you to know I read each and every one and each one warmed my heart. Promise. For today, I'm going to be sharing a brief how-to bind a crochet square and make it into a hot pad. This idea all started a couple months ago when Rachel at Stitched In Color asked me to do a sort of guest post for her and she asked me to do a crochet project. I've been a crochet-er for over 20 years and have always loved it. And I love taking a common crochet project and making it a bit different by adding some sewing to it. So let me present to you my "hooked and bound" hot pads. To make your very own hooked and bound hot pads, this is what you'll need. a crochet square, using 100% cotton yarn (your choice on pattern and size. I used the pumpkin patch pattern here for the brown/creme one and pattern #30 out of 101 Stitches for Afghans for the red/creme one.) 2 3/4" strip of cotton fabric, pressed in half, for binding (the length of the strip will be determined by your size of crochet square.) cotton backing fabric, cut about 2" bigger than your crochet square insulbrite cut about 2" bigger than your crochet square cotton batting cut about 2" bigger than your crochet square 2"X6" cotton fabric for loop walking foot (this is absolutely necessary) Directions: 1. Layer your backing (right side down), insulbrite (shiny side down), cotton batting, then your crochet square (right side up), and pin. 2. Using a walking foot, "quilt" the sandwich however you like. I used matching thread so you can't see the quilting so much on the crochet square, but can see it on the backing fabric. 3. Trim the batting, insulbrite and backing so it is flush with the crochet square. Make sure you don't trim any of the crochet threads. As you can tell from my pic, a lot of times the crochet square will not have a perfect square corner, but is kind of...

I was on the lookout for a simple pattern to continue my sampler of supplementary-weft patterns and the positive/negative space studies that I have been writing about these past two weeks. After weaving some patterns based on Bolivian hatbands where the weft is used to fill the space surrounding the motif rather than the motif…

This weekend was the Canine Fun Days at the Cleveland (Ohio) Metroparks polo fields, sponsored by Greyhound Rescue.  I headed up the Ohio Pug Rescue booth on Saturday.  Here are a few of the pugs who worked the crowd.  My Loocie was one of the youngters and she is almost 8. Milo taking a breather ~ he's 11. Blind, deaf and 14, Herman was adopted by OPR member Jodi when he was 11.  What a sweet boy! This lady was intent on winning the costume contest.  By the end of the day, the pugs and their humans were worn out, but we made some money for rescue and hope that someone will adopt a pug because of our efforts. Back to rug week at Sauder Village . . . One of the special exhibits was The Presidents.  In less than a year's time, Linda Pietz researched and designed a rug for each of our Presidents and her sister Nola Heidbreder hooked them. That's 44 rugs, each 16" x 20".  Click here for a USA Today video with Linda and Nola. One of Nola's favorites. There were also knitted versions of all the Presidents.  If I remember correctly, knitters in Linda's knitting guild in California each adopted a President and gave them a life of their own.   I have SO MANY rugs to share.  I just love this one! This is Janice Lee's rug Ghost Rider.  Read all about it here. Last call for Annie to email me to claim her "WOOL ADDICT" necklace. Thanks so much for stopping by. Pug hugs :) Lauren
