<title>How do I create words on a crocheted blanket?</title>
<link>http://creative-corner.net/modules.php?name=Forums&amp;file=viewtopic&amp;p=40#40</link>
<description><![CDATA[I have a blanket that I have crocheted w/ doubles.  I would like to put a word on here.  I'm thinking I would do something on top of the stitches in a different color.  I was wondering if anyone knew of the best way to do this?]]></description>

<title>Storing Your Knits</title>
<link>http://creative-corner.net/modules.php?name=Forums&amp;file=viewtopic&amp;p=17#17</link>
<description><![CDATA[When you put your sweaters and other knitted wear away for the season besure they have been cleaned or washed. A tiny speck of food or beverage -- you may not even see it -- invites company to dinner. Moths are not the only things that eat -- crickets and silver fish are as destructive as moths and will eat any fiber, not just wool. Besure your storage container is clean and if it is air tight besure to put a bar of soap -- open the ends of the wrapper but leave the soap inside. It will keep you]]></description>

<title>Help for loose end stitches</title>
<link>http://creative-corner.net/modules.php?name=Forums&amp;file=viewtopic&amp;p=16#16</link>
<description><![CDATA[One of the things that causes the loose stitch at the end/beginning of the row is pulling up on the yarn instead of pulling down. When you pull up it really stretches that last stitch and sometimes you can actually make it look like another stitch. You can usually ease most of that looseness back into the three or four stitches before the end by pulling up on the stitch next to the loose stitch on the needle, pulling a little less on each stitch back on the needle.]]></description>

<title>Kitchner Stitch</title>
<link>http://creative-corner.net/modules.php?name=Forums&amp;file=viewtopic&amp;p=15#15</link>
<description><![CDATA[When I learned to do the kitchner the instructor had us knit two swatches about four inches across -- not bound off. Then we pinned the two pieces facing each other with the open stitches facing and just touching. Then we took a threaded yarn needle and proceeded to copy the stitches with yarn. The pattern we said was up in the first loop on the bottom piece (closest to you) and down in the opposite stitch away from you, up in its next door neighbor, down in the first stitch on the bottom again,]]></description>

<title>Prevent in color bleed in washing</title>
<link>http://creative-corner.net/modules.php?name=Forums&amp;file=viewtopic&amp;p=14#14</link>
<description><![CDATA[With mixed colors and white cottons I give them a vinegar bath before the first washing. A cup of vinegar to a couple of gallons of water. I squeeze the sweater in the water and if keep it moving. Rinse and if you see color coming out in the water rinse until the water is clear. If it doesn't stop releasing color. Repeat the vinegar wash. It is rare to have to do it twice. Wash the garment and rinse thoroughly. Watch the rinse water and besure there isn't any color coming out. Keep rinsing until]]></description>

<title>Easy tote with built in needle pockets</title>
<link>http://creative-corner.net/modules.php?name=Forums&amp;file=viewtopic&amp;p=13#13</link>
<description><![CDATA[A student in my knitting class took two inexpensive canvas tote bags, put one inside the other and stitched them together 18&#38;quot; down from the top. She then stitched pockets about 1.5 inches wide from the top down to the stitching on one side. She keeps her needles in the narrow pockets-- the numbered tops are easy to see but keeps the needles together. The pocket on the opposite side holds her books, note paper etc. Then her project fits in the large center space. It is one of the neatest]]></description>

<title>Three needle bind off</title>
<link>http://creative-corner.net/modules.php?name=Forums&amp;file=viewtopic&amp;p=11#11</link>
<description><![CDATA[Joining shoulder seams is one of the hardest to make look professional. Next time you you are knitting fronts and backs, put the shoulder stitches on a holder - don't bind off yet. When front and back are finished put the shoulder stitches (one shoulder at a time) on two separate needles with the points in the same direction. Take a third needle and insert in one stitch on the front needle and one stitch on the back needle. Knit the two stitches together as one, Repeat and lift the first stitch ]]></description>

<title>Binding off</title>
<link>http://creative-corner.net/modules.php?name=Forums&amp;file=viewtopic&amp;p=10#10</link>
<description><![CDATA[You always bind off in pattern -- ribbing, seed stitch, stockentte st, etc. Work the first two stitches. Lift the first one worked over the second and drop it off the end of the needle. Work another stitch and lift the first st on the right needle over the one just worked and drop it off the end of the needle. When you are down to one loop on the right needle pull the loop up to about six inches and cut it in the center. Pull the ball yarn out and your stitch is locked. Do not pull the ball yarn]]></description>

<title>&#34;Knit to fit&#34;</title>

<description><![CDATA[When I teach &#38;quot;knit to fit&#38;quot; we draw a rough sketch of our body shape and put in all the measurements -- the usual bust, waist, hip -- and in addition the measurement from shoulder to waist, width of shoulders, armhole depth (put a magazine under your arm keeping it parallel to the floor and measure from the crown of the shoulder to the book -- your actual arm hole depth). Then make a sketch of what you want to make. Put in the amount of ease you like and you have the measurement]]></description>

<title>Easing back neck to fit.</title>
<link>http://creative-corner.net/modules.php?name=Forums&amp;file=viewtopic&amp;p=8#8</link>
<description><![CDATA[Many times the neck line in a sweater pulls to the back making the sweater uncomfortable. This is caused by the back neck line being to big. You can use fine elastic and run a row along the back neck line. Pull the elastic up until the sweater lays comfortably and smoothly across the back neck. This does the same thing as putting in a small dart . The extra fullness will disappear when the sweater is blocked. This adjusment will make the sweater sit more comfortably on the shoulders.]]></description>

<title>To make ribbing more elastic</title>
<link>http://creative-corner.net/modules.php?name=Forums&amp;file=viewtopic&amp;p=6#6</link>
<description><![CDATA[To make your ribbing more elastic and get rid of the loose stitch when changing between knit and purl try this suggestion. When purling take your yarn around the needle in the opposite direction than usual. This will twist the stitch so when you knit this stitch on the next row just knit in the back of the stitch to straighten it out again.]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[:) The needlepooint trunk show has gone but we now have the Louet Trunk show! It will be here over a month, but don't wait to come in and see it.
