Hi! The 2nd vlog and blog I made on my vacation address. I was in a village or little town, Montesquieu-Volvestre, where we often did our shopping for groceries, and on one of these trips we walked around a bit, and we passed a store where they sold all kinds of household stuff. In the window I saw several crafting supplies, and there I saw this mini weaving loom from Clover. Well, as a person that loves weaving a lot, I couldn’t resist to buy it, it just had to be added to my collection 🙂 . The next day I unpacked it at theRead More →

Hi, I’m back! Life happened, so the website and the video’s had to wait. But today I published 2 video’s about crocheted borders. The tutorials were on the website already (here for slip stitches, here and here for single crochets (US term)), but the video’s are ready now too. In these tutorials I go into detail about how to make the side and the corners really nice, and how to do these sides so that you get the same number of stitches on each side. This is so handy when attaching pieces together later! And really supersimple! I show again how to do the invisible finishing. SoRead More →

I’ve promised a couple of times that it would come, and here it is! The video on how to weave a triangle! You may have already seen the tutorial I did about it on this website (see here). It is so easy to do. And it makes it possible to do so much more projects! I love triangular shawls, and you can do that by making squares together with triangular parts. You could even do just triangular shapes, and piece them together, just like you only had a small tri-loom! That could really give a fun effect! So, give that a try also. So, hereRead More →

You have these days, that you want to do something really nice. Because the christmas tree and all the other christmas decorations are gone, so the living room just looks so… you know, so… normal…. The weather is bad, it’s raining, it’s cold, no sunshine… So, time to compensate . Why not take a look at your yarn stash, that always makes me very happy , and find that beautiful yarn you once bought, and didn’t know what to do with. Well, I have a great idea here! Make a nice warm shawl, to cuddle up with, to wear when you really have to goRead More →

I promised I would publish this video soon, so here it is: part 2 of working with finer yarns, going into detail on doing a crochet border. Of course you could decide to just take the weave of the loom without a crochet border, but if you decide to do one, here are 2 tricks to help you do that. You now have 2 threads around each nail, so you have to handle that in a certain way. It also depends on which side you’re working, so I show you how to deal with both situations. Wishing you again fun watching this!Read More →
