I haven’t been sewing for too many years, but one thing I noticed when I first started was a movement to #topstitchallthethings. I’m telling you, it didn’t matter what group I was in, if you were sewing, you were topstitching. What I later discovered was the lost art and technique of understitching. Understitching is the […]

Holger Sweater - Knitting Pattern Designed by PetiteKnit This pattern is a printed pattern in English. The Holger Sweater is worked from the top down. The body is worked in stockinette stitch with stripes, while the sleeves and neck edge are each worked in a different solid color. First, the back yoke is worked back and forth with the slope of the shoulders being shaped using short rows and in stripes, which are worked at the same time. Each shoulder is then worked back and forth on a circular needle, and then the shoulders are joined to form the front yoke. The front and back yoke are joined at the underarms to form the body, which is worked in the round on a circular needle with stripes. The sleeves are worked down from stitches that are picked up and knitted around the armholes. At the end, a folded neck edge is worked from stitches that are picked up and knitted along the neckline. Size guide The Holger Sweater is designed to have approx. 20-25 cm [7¾-9¾ inches] of positive ease. The sizes 1-2 (2-3) 3-4 (4-5) 5-6 (6-7) 7-8 (8-9) 9-10 (10-11) 11-12 (12-14) years are designed to fit a chest circumference of 53 (54) 56 (57) 59 (62) 64 (68) 72 (75) 78 (82) cm [20¾ (21¼) 22 (22½) 23¼ (24½) 25¼ (26¾) 28¼ (29½) 30¾ (32¼) inches]. The measurements for the finished sweater can be found on the front page of the pattern (please note that these measurements are only achieved if the correct gauge is maintained). If the intended wearer measures 62 cm [24½ inches] around the chest, you should knit a size 6-7 years. A size 6-7 years sweater has a chest circumference of 86 cm [33¾ inches] which in the given example would give the intended wearer 24 cm [9½ inches] of positive ease. If the measured chest circumference deviates from the age guide, you can adjust the length to fit the person you’re knitting for. The same applies if the child is shorter or taller than average. Sizes: 1-2 (2-3) 3-4 (4-5) 5-6 (6-7) 7-8 (8-9) 9-10 (10-11) 11-12 (12-14) years Chest circumference: 72 (74) 78 (82) 82 (86) 88 (92) 96 (98) 104 (108) cm [28¼ (29¼) 30¾ (32¼) 32¼ (33¾) 34¾ (36¼) 37¾ (38½) 41 (42½) inches] Length: 36 (38) 42 (43) 45 (48) 49 (50) 52 (53) 54 (56) cm [14¼ (15) 16½ (17) 17¾ (19) 19¼ (19¾) 20½ (20¾) 21¼ (22) inches] measured mid back excl. neck edge Gauge: 20 sts x 30 rows = 10 x 10 cm [4 x 4 inches] in stockinette stitch on 4 mm [US6] needles Needles: Circular needles: 4 mm [US6] / 60 or 80 cm [24 or 32 inches] and 3.5 mm [US4] / 40 and 60 and/or 80 cm [16 and 24 and/or 32 inches]; Double-pointed needles: 3.5 mm [US4] and 4 mm [US6] (unless the Magic Loop technique is used) Materials: 6 different colors of Peer Gynt by Sandnes Garn (50 g = 91 m [98 yds]) or Peruvian Highland Wool by Filcolana (50 g = 100 m [109 yds]) or Double Sunday by Sandnes Garn (50 g = 108 m [118 yds]) Stripe colors for the body: Approx. 65 (74) 79 (84) 89 (102) 110 (116) 120 (128) 136 (145) g in each color Rib hem on the body: Approx. ca. 23 (23) 25 (25) 27 (27) 27 (29) 29 (30) 33 (33) g Sleeves: Approx. 31 (36) 40 (45) 50 (52) 54 (57) 61 (64) 67 (71) g in each color Neck edge: Approx. 14 (15) 15 (16) 16 (17) 17 (18) 18 (18) 19 (19) g
The SABAI top is a light and airy summer top with a boat neckline. It is super easy to knit, requires only a few techniques and is therefore ideal for beginners. In addition to the SABAI Top No. 1 with ribbed borders, there is also a second, completely in stockinette stitch, knit version - the SABAI Top No. 2. The SABAI Top No. 1 is worked seamlessly top down. First, the neckline border is worked in the round in a 1/1 rib stitch pattern and increases are worked for the slanted shoulders. For the armholes, front and back parts are worked separately back and forth. The stitches of front and back are then joined and worked in the round again. The top ends with a narrow ribbed border with a rolled edge. As the top is knitted from the top down, it is possible (and advisable) to try it on while knitting so that the length can be individually adjusted. Techniques used: left- and right leaning knitted and purled increases. Sizes XS (S) M (L) XL (XXL) To fit chest circumference: 74-81 (82-89) 90-97 (98-107) 108-117 (118-127) cm / 30-32 (33-35) 36-38 (38-42) 43-46 (47-50)” Measurments Chest circumference: 85 (91) 99 (109) 121 (131) cm / 33.4 (35.8) 39 (42.9) 47.6 (51.6)” Total length: 47 (49) 51 (54) 57 (60) cm / 18.5 (19.3) 20.1 (21.3) 22.4 (23.6)” Armhole depth: 21 (22) 22 (23) 24 (25) cm / 8.3 (8.7) 8.7 (9.1) 9.5 (9.8)” The top can be worn snug with approx. 0 - 2 cm / 0 – 0.8” positive ease, but also works well with a little more room to move (5 - 8 cm / 2 – 3.2” positive ease). For example, if you have a chest circumference of 90 cm / 35.4”, you should choose between size S and M. Yarn 200 (250) 250 (300) 350 (400) g ‚Cecilia‘ by Svarta Fåret (53 % Cotton, 33 % Viscose, 14 % Linen, 110 m/ 50 g) or 200 (250) 250 (300) 350 (400) g ‚Line‘ by Sandnes Garn (53 % Cotton, 33 % Viscose, 14 % Linen, 110 m/ 50 g), or 200 (200-250) 250 (300) 350 (350-400) g ‚Perla‘ by Lamana (60 % Cotton, 25 % Alpaca, 15 % Silk, 115 m/50 g). Tips for yarn choices Several yarn qualities are recommended in the instructions, a few words about them: ‚Cecilia’ und ‚Line’ have the same composition, a summery cotton-linen mix. This makes the top loose and flowing. ‚Perla’ is a cotton yarn with alpaca and silk. This makes the top a bit thicker because the yarn is more voluminous. Needles 50 – 60 cm / 20 – 24” and 80 - 100 cm / 32 – 40” circular needles size 4,0 mm / (US 6/UK 8). Gauge / Tension In stockinette stitch using ndl size 4.0 mm: 20 sts x 28 rows = 10 x 10 cm / 4” square The swatches were washed and measured lying flat. Please adjust needle size if necessary, to obtain correct gauge. Notions Tapestry needle, stitch markers

It has been a while since my last tutorial! My hope is that a beginner seamstress will find the instructions and pictures easy to use and the expert seamstress will gain inspiration on how to apply this technique to other projects! Let's Go! Lined Purse with a Zipper! Materials: 1. 4 pieces of equal sized fabrics. The ones shown here are cut to 8in. x 4.5". 2. 1 zipper, longer than the length of your fabric. Steps: 1. Place the outer fabric face up andlay the zipper face down on top. Line the up the edges. *Notice my zipper is way larger than my fabric. This is not a problem as I will cut off both sides when I am complete. The nice thing about using larger zippers is that I can position the zipper pull off my fabric so that I do not have to sew around it. Using larger zippers mean that I also have a zipper on hand and not one that is too short for my project. 3. Place the lining fabric face down on the zipper and line up the edges. 3. Pin all three layers together. 4. Using a zipper foot, sew all three layers together. 5. Remove pins and it should look like this! 6. Iron seams, fold back lining and iron again. 7. Place second piece of outer fabric face up. Then place zipper on top face down. 8. Place lining fabric face down on top of zipper and line up all edges. 9. Pin the three layers together and sew together as before. 10. Remove pins, iron seams, fold back lining and iron again. 11. One side should look like this: 12. The other side should look like this: 13. Pick up just the lining pieces so that the right sides are together. 14. Place on table with lining right sides together and outer fabric pieces together. 15. Unfold one side and unzip zipper half-way. This is a crucial step and yet soooo easy to forget. 16. Pin edges together. Zipper should be folded toward the outer fabric. 17. Sew around edges with 1.2 in. seam and leave about a 2in opening on the side edge of lining fabric. 18. Trim edges and clip corners. 19. Yes, cut right through the zipper on either side. 20. Reach through the opening and turn the purse outside in! 21. Once turned, pull lining out and finger press the opening. 22. Sew the opening closed with your machine as close to the edge of the fabric as possible. Just go slow. *Note* You can slip stitch this opening closed by hand. I have found that with the opeing on the side and not the bottom of the lining it is less noticeable and therefore, a machine stitch is not noticed either. 23. Push the lining back in and iron! Voila!
