Sunday Knitting and Crochet Images and a Little Humor

Sunday Knitting and Crochet Images and a Little Humor is now located here. This is one of my Pinterest pages. I have commented on the trends being shown in some of the pictures. I really think knitting is heading in an exciting direction with combining short row and color work.

Also start thinking about knitting garments in undyed yarn and then when complete apply the dye. See the Gucci tie-dyed sweater.

My hope in changing the pictures to Pinterest is that I can show you more of what is inspiring to me and the trends I am seeing. In doing so, I hope this inspires the knitter and crocheter to create their own works of art.

Knitting Images Sunday

I was cruising the internet after removing ice and snow from selective areas of the yard where crocus and daffodils tend to appear and found some interesting knitting pictures I wanted to share.

These hand knit wool socks are from Armenia. They can be found in the Victoria and Albert Museum. From what I have seen in the form of pictures from the museum, it is a place I would love to visit.

I found these mitts on Ravelry. No pattern is available. However, a basic fingerless mitt pattern, a good stash of fingering weight yarn in many colors and something similar can be attained.

Finally, if weaving in lots of yarn ends is not your idea of fun, make it into a fashion statement instead.
