I came across a reference to this child's knitted sock a couple of days ago. it dates from around 300 CE and is the earliest colored knitted item found. It is dyed with plants and earths. it looks to me as if it is knitted in stocking stitch, but ...

Welcome new members! I haven't been on here for a while, mainly because I have been getting back to doing some watercolours - I'm hopeless but I keep trying - and partly because I have started anything new for a while. i am doing a rather lengthy ...

I have made my first fabric pine cone. It is a bit uneven but not bad for a first attempt. I shall get better with practice. It is bigger than I want for my tiny tree but it was fun so I shall make a few to give away.

Who else makes it through one sock, mitten, wrist warmer etc, and then never finishes the other? As soon as I'm done one, I set it down, and never finish the second. I have so many sock, wrist warmer and Thrummed mittens who will never have ...

New season's resolution: I am going to finish at least some of the works-in-progress lying around in my work-room. I shall allow myself one or two new projects, too. I want to make some very small Christmas tree decorations - preferably stitiched ...

Do you keep bags of completed pieces waiting for the day you feel inspired to sew them together? I have baggies full of parts for bird stuffies. Now, I'm starting bags of small Hallowe'en amigurumis. The pieces are sorted and labelled.

I am in Austin, TX for work this week, and this is my current "traveling project". I spotted the yarn at the store and instantly knew it needed to become a scarf - it's hard to tell in the picture, but it's sparkly. A scarf is the perfect size ...

Not quilting or knitting, but this is my first cushion and it's been a steep learning curve. I think I need to trim 1/2 inch off the foam insert. It's going to be too tight. I do like how this fabric goes with my painted cupboard.

I'm on holiday in England at the moment so not doing much in the way of handicrafts as I am child-minding a lot if the time! Hoping to see lots of pictures of summer projects though.

Hey everybody, I'm new here! My name is Fiona, I'm 18 and I've been wanting to get into quilting for a while. I was thinking that for a start I'd make a crib quilt for my friend's baby, though I'm not sure what to put on it. Any ideas?

This is the look I got when I came home once to find my knitting yarn wrapped around furniture, out the doggy dog, back in, soggy, and full of grass. I think he's saying 'wasn't me- a coyote came in the doggy door and did this mess'.

It's nice to know that "old fashion" skills are not wasting away. I knit, sew & try alot. I make myself a hand quilted christmas tree skirt. I could find one I liked. It has an old fashion train. Anyone out there ever feel that part of them was born ...

Finished the small guest room quilt. It's a easy pattern that I tried to teach my visiting sister to quilt. But she was not interested so I did it myself. Relaxing to do a more simple pattern for a change. I like the backing enough to use it ...

I found this interesting quilted pillow pattern in one of my mom's Japanese magazines. I can't read Japanese, but since I am a visual person, I figured it out by looking at the pictures. Made this last month for a friend who lost a lot of possessions...
