I charted the cable pattern and simply must conclude this is intentional... the vertical asymmetry and the cable stitches on wrong side rows are simply too incriminating

(the instructions for wrong side cables might be flipped, I didn't chart it)

I'm kind of invested now, I might want to knit this up...

there are four human activities and they are crafting, stories, math, and fucking around. whatever you're doing is at least one of those four.

[mrvelocipede]

I've been working on adding some knitting stitch instructions to my website. I think that hits all four.

Jesus Tapdancing Christ... THIS is a good welt pocket and the people who designed Simplicity 2895 ought to be blasted well ASHAMED of themselves for the crap way THEY wanted a welt pocket made. *SNARLS*

[makereadgrow]

This is how I learned to do it and a good example of what you want to see in a short form tutorial: pinning, pressing, seam finishing, good fabric handling.

I would mention that you can make the pocket facing with a small panel of your matching fabric that is visible and the rest in a lighter fabric to reduce bulk. That's a lot of denim layers for comfort.

So many fiber arts have difficulty levels that are less about your level of skill than your ability to tolerate extreme multi-step processes.

The faux quilt blanket that I have been working on all spring is finally finished. It is going to be a gift for my best friend who is getting married.

It is knitted in brioche with breaks of garter stitch. It has really been a labor of love as it took 3 and a half months or about 250 hours to complete. I have never before attempted a project of this size. The knitting gauge is tiny, as it is made on 2,5mm needles in fingering weight wool yarn. 360 stitches per row.

Next I will be creating a baby blanket using the same stitch pattern, for which I am writing up the pattern. I am knitting it with larger needles and sport weight yarn.

My linen quilt is finished!! This was made from all leftover linen from garments i've made- i always get way too much yardage, whoops- except the black. I was planning on using the black for garment things but then i had this quilt idea, so, pivoted.

This was a beast but im so so happy with how it turned out. Shes very moody.

It was machine pieced but hand quilted. I really fell in love with hand quilting while making this! Throwing on an audio book and just sewing for 3ish hours in the evenings was lovely and calming.

And if you ever want to quilt with linen, spray starch is your best friend. Lots of spray starch.

Also a lil banner i whipped up after from an extra repeat block i had!

Best thing about watching my grandparents cat is that while I'm there I can rifle through the great Quilt Stash and bring out beautiful works of art to sleep under.

It had never occurred to me that bus upholstery fabric is something that an ordinary person can just buy, but I was watching a video that included a trip to a huge fabric store and they just had a whole section of it??!

Including the exact same one my city buses have!!

The fabric store in the video isn't even in the same country as me, but I sat on that very same pattern on the way to work yesterday!

[vashti-lives]

I love discovering really specific commercial textiles are also available for domestic use. Very jarring to discover, for example, that bowling alley carpet is something anybody can just buy.

[vinceaddams]

Even though I don't want any myself it's really nice to know that it's an option!
