      I crochet too and way freaking out in my head when I saw that, but I must say that it turned out really nice!! You don't have to figure a pattern for the sweater/duster!! I need to investigate the pattern.

      As a crocheter it has always broken my heart to see those wonderful handmade blankets hanging there all unloved. This means I can "rescue" a couple and feel like I've done something to honour the artists. I love this so much for all the reasons!❤❤❤❤

    I would use Tearaway embroidery stabilizer on the top and bottom of the knitted or crochet material to protect your sewing and serger machines from fibers clogging the internal mechanisms. The stabilizer is not expensive and can be cut into strips. It can be found by rolls in the notion section of JoAnn and also sold by the yard. It can also be ordered online in precut sheets! Beautiful sweater!

    Ever since she showed the results of the cardigan from a knitted blanket people have bombard her for this video on how it was done and here it is. Wow this was great and baby girl is going to love it especially with the added statement of scallop edges. These are coming out great. Thanks for sharing and ta ta for now!

    great video! next time you are sewing something that can catch in the presser foot cut a straw about 2 inches in length and put each end on the foot. it blocks the foot from catching threads, yarn and fur. again great video and i hope to give it a try.

    I wanna say I love the outcome of all the upcycles, totally beautiful.
    One thing I would like to say is that you probably didn’t need to cut the side seams, you just needed to cut out the armhole and line up the side seams of the pattern to touch each other. So your sides would have no joining and no need for the tape at the sides.

  • @CarmenShenk
    @CarmenShenk Před 7 měsíci +9

    Ever since I saw what you did with the ones you got in Canada I have been keeping an eye out for these kinds of hand made blankets. There are a few in an estate sale coming up at a place near me, so hopefully I'll have some fun ones to play with myself soon. Loooooove the super long ones but the shorter one you just made is also gorgeous! Nobody!!! has one like it!

    • @catfeatherss

  • @pardetasturdivant3662
    @pardetasturdivant3662 Před 6 měsíci +1

    One tip on sewing this type of fabric, is to cut a straw to make 2 pieces about an inch long. And put them on the tips of the presser foot. The fabric will not get caught and slid under easily.
