I put together this little tote bag for the "Small Project Knit Kit" swap. It's made of felted recycled sweaters. I've been wanting to make one for quite a while -- I love the look of them. I really like it -- it was hard to pack it up today and send it away...

Photographer's note:

Hand-knit/hand-sewn scarf from recycled/reclaimed sweaters. I salvage fun parts of the sweaters and then unravel the rest. This is made from the edges of a sweater's sleeves and waistline. Most of these scarves consist of 4-6 sweaters. All pieces are original patterns knitted on my great grandma's needles.

And speaking of fingers... these finger puppets are very sweet~

Here's the photographer's note:

Hare Finger Puppets

All kids love simple toys. The hare finger puppets are easy to knit, easy to carry around in your pocket toys. They are super useful to take with on long trips with your kids.
Hare Finger Puppets are made from very small amounts of yarn. They measure about 9 cm (3,5 inch).

Some of you might have snow on the ground right now, but it's always good to look ahead! This is a sweet little bag, and I love the color.

Here's what the photographer has to say:


"I just finished making this sweet little purse. I used Berroco Cotton Twist yarn and a free knitting pattern I found on the internet.
www.anniesattic.com/stitches/knitting/patterns/pdfs/kn_la...

When I made this purse, I did an extra repeat of the lace pattern, because I thought it needed a bit more height. I also "cheated" at the end of the pattern. I didn't do the complicated eyelet row. I just did a YO, K2together for that row. I think it turned out fine."

Photo note:

"recycled sweater purse

"So I was taking apart this funky orange sweater from an estate sale... only to find that the front neck cable stitch wraps all the way around the collar and back again! Rare. So I started playing around and realized it would be a great purse.

The buttons are now sewn up the sides to prevent things from falling out... except for the top 2-3 buttons. They're functional in order to have the "across the chest" option when wearing it. Lined with recycled pants and/or shirts.

The Sweater (A Poem)

This one is from Debra B., on Gather.com :


The Sweater (a poem)

She sat there quietly plying her needles

listening to the radio and hummin'.
     --knit one, purl two--
With aged but nimble fingers knitting
him a sweater, for winter is a'comin'.

She peers o'er her glasses at her old man
content to breath in the sweet smell
     --knit one, purl two--
of the fresh tobacco he's stuffin' his pipe.
After 58 years she knows it so well.

It's been a long day; he's been up since dawn
and he's ready to put his tired bones to bed.
     --knit one, purl two--
But she says, "Let me get just two more rows done."
So he waits up for her a while longer instead.

She works her pattern with the homespun yarn
"In the Sweet Bye and Bye" lowly hummin'.
     --knit one, purl two--
With love she commits to every stitch
of that sweater for him, for winter is a'comin'.

 db                               


Debra says, along with her poem, " I couldn't sleep last night so I let my mind wonder.  When I finally harnessed my thoughts, this is what I had come up with.  I'm not sure where the idea came from, but while I was writing I pictured my parents and my great-grandparents.  I hope it evokes a smile."

Knit Knot Tree

This is very cool--I wonder how the tree feels?

This knitted tree is located in Yellow Springs, Ohio. The 'Knit Knot Tree' has been covered in knitted panels from (almost) the bottom to the top. There's a empty space at the bottom of the tree for dogs to pee. The tree is not unique, according to this article there are more located around the US. More here. [Picvia]


Here's more, from Yellow Springs News:


Neat knots and knick-knacks: the Knit Knot Tree finds fame

Corrine Bayraktaroglu and Nancy Mellon at the Knit Knot Tree on Xenia Avenue.

You can call it a tree in a sweater, a community crazy quilt, or one more quirky idea from Nancy Mellon and Corrine Bayraktaroglu. Whatever you call it, the knitted art project on the pear tree outside the Emporium seems to have taken the world by storm.

At last count, a feature article on the tree, which went out on the Associated Press wire last Monday, had appeared in 158 papers worldwide, including papers from California to Maine, South Africa to Switzerland. Radio stations in Scotland and England have called for interviews. And no one is more surprised by the publicity than the artists themselves.

“We just can’t believe that a little knitting on a tree is getting so much attention” Bayraktaroglu, a native of northern England, said in an interview last week. “It tickles people’s fancy.”

To Mellon, the “Knit Knot Tree” (name suggested by Joanne McKee) has garnered acclaim because “there’s so much sadness in the world, people like something that’s bright and cheerful and nonsense.”

The Knit Knot Tree started when Mellon and Bayraktaroglu fastened two knitted sections around the tree’s horizontal limb, then began adding more. Day by day, the knitting expanded, until a hodgepodge of vibrant colors and textures crept up the tree’s limbs and down its trunk. Mellon first added new sections by standing on Tim Hackathorne’s chair, then she moved to a stepladder, then to an 8-foot ladder. Squeamish about heights, she finally asked friends to wrap the final knitted pieces around the highest part of the limbs.

After the two women put out a call for others to add to the project, many did so. And others have brought small items, such as photos or poems, that they stuffed into the pockets on the tree’s sweater.

While Mellon and Bayraktaroglu knew they’d have a good time on the project — they always do have a good time working together — they didn’t expect so much community enthusiasm. They are thrilled by it, the women said.

“When we started, people would see me out there and they’d stop and talk. Some people stopped their cars and came running across the street,” Mellon said. Part of the huge response can be linked to the tree’s location in front of the Emporium, she believes, a place she sees as “a community spot, a place for listening and talking.”

Mellon and Bayraktaroglu are quick to offer that they aren’t the first to put sweaters on trees. They were inspired by Knitta, the name taken by two Houston housewives who in 2005 began wrapping knitting in unusual places — around door knobs, stop signs, or lampposts, for instance. Since then, artists across the country have caught on to this knitted street art.

To Mellon and Bayraktaroglu, the ordinariness of the medium adds to its appeal.

“Anyone can knit,” said Bayraktaroglu. “You don’t have to think of yourself as some famous artist draping Central Park in fabric. It could be grannies.”

“Is it art?” she asked. “That’s up to the viewer.”

Those who want to ponder the nature of art under the Knit Knot Tree should do so soon, since the knitting will be removed in a month. Mellon and Bayraktaroglu have received, as well as praise for the project, some e-mails from those concerned about the knitting’s effects on the tree’s health, and the women want everyone to know that they consulted with tree experts before beginning the project. But the tree could be harmed if the art project stays on during the warm summer months, so Mellon and Bayraktaroglu will cut down the knitting on Arbor Day, then will give it away.

The two women, who are active in the Yellow Springs Arts Council, have no shortage of creative ideas. Before the Knit Knot Tree, they found international fame once before, when they launched the ChamberPot Gallery in the bathrooms of the local train station two years ago. And each month they create 15 or 20 small “found art” items that they hide downtown for people to discover during the Third Friday Fling.

“The ideas just fly out,” when she and Bayraktaroglu get together, Mellon said. “We have more ideas than we can handle.”

What gratifies the two women most, they said, is that the Knit Knot Tree, and the ChamberPot Gallery before it, brings attention to Yellow Springs. Both are fairly new to the village, and they love living here. Mellon and her husband moved to town four years ago, after reading about Yellow Springs in the book, 100 Best Small Art Towns. Bayraktaroglu moved here six years ago with her husband, who works at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base.

Both women feel that living in Yellow Springs has helped them grow as artists, because they feel accepted for their work, and also because they feel inspired by other artists.

“I feel I’ve blossomed here,” Mellon said, as Bayraktaroglu agreed.

Having received so much from the village, they want to give back. And as well as good ideas, they have a vision, they said. While they are gratified that more and more out-of-towners have begun coming to Yellow Springs as a destination experience, Mellon and Bayraktaroglu believe much more could be done to market the town as an arts community.

“We would like to see the arts infuse the economic base,” Mellon said. “We would like it more known as an arts town.”

Progress is being made, they believe, especially with a recent collaboration between the Yellow Springs Arts Council and the Arts Center Steering Committee, which have recently opened a joint office downtown.

But more needs to be done, the women believe. And it’s safe to say that Mellon and Bayraktaroglu will continue to do their fair share, and beyond, in letting the world know that Yellow Springs is a distinctive arts community.

Knitting Poem, Fib to a Knit Dweeb

Fib to a Knit Dweeb

BY MARY ROBERTS

I
spend
my days
wondering
if Lion Brand Fun Fur
will make a nice pair of undies.

Poem to teach children to knit

A simple poem from Lion Brand, to help children learn to knit:

Under the fence,
around the sheep,
bring it through,
and off it leaps."


Poetic Mittens

Just found these in my travels (from the National Museum of American History):

Smithsonian Institution

Here's the note that goes with, and the link to the site:

These mittens were knitted of blue and white homespun wools in the early 19th century. The shag knit used at the wrists is recorded in an American diary of 1803 as the "new Mode of Knitting." The knitted pattern throughout the mittens is a poem that starts at the wrist of one mitten, spirals to the top, and continues from the wrist to the top of the second. The "Xs" are part of the design and are used as line delimiters. The poem reads, "One thing you must not borrow nor never give awayXFor he who borrows trouble will have it every dayXBut if you have a plenty and more then you can bearXIt will not lighten yoursXXif others have a shareXYou must learn to be contented then will your trouble ceaseXAnd then you may be certain that you will live in peaceXFor a contented mind is a continual feast." 

The thumb of each mitten is adorned with the name "William Watson." A printer of cheap or penny papers named William Watson was active in London from about 1805 to 1830. Each of his publications contained a woodcut, a story, and a poem. The Library of Congress has only one example of his papers, but its poem is of comparable length, and of the same moralizing quality as the mittens' poem, offering a direction for further research.
In No Idle Hands, The Social History of American Knitting (New York: Ballantine Books, 1988), Anne L. Macdonald pictures a single mitten patterned with half of the same poem. An undated newspaper clipping attributes it to Margaret Evans of New Hampshire, possibly 18th century. The thumb of the Evans mitten appears to say, "Son 4 U Mother" and "80." At the beginning of the poem of this pair of mittens, there are two initials or numbers, perhaps "OB" or "DB" or "08" or "80." Patterns for short inscriptions and dates in knitting were published from at least the late 18th century.

This is a gorgeous cabled vest--

Long Cabled Vest Sleeveless Cardigan Photo
Here's what they have to say on the site:

#71 Intricately Cabled Long Vest PDF Knitting Pattern


The best vest that you will ever knit. Superb detailing mixed with a sexily tailored shape. Notice the curved bottom front hem, the knit-in pockets, and the sensuous and intricate cable that dissolves into a simpler cable to help define the waist shaping. 
Then, there is the extended button-up collar, which can be worn out as shown, or buttoned up into a cozy turtleneck. The buttons reverse at the collar to show their best advantage. 

And last, but not least is the optional belt, knit wide to make a bold statement and finished with pretty horn-like double rings as the buckle.

This is one to make for yourself or for someone who is very deserving.

See it discussed on the SweaterBabe.com Blog.

Crocheted bat pattern!  How cute!

Here are the specs on this one (from their website):

#65 Fantastic Crocheted Bat PDF Crochet Pattern 

Quite possibly one of the quickest projects on earth! Make a single bat or make a colony of them! OR, make a bat mobile (ha ha ha). 

Perfect for Halloween favors or just for decorating. Glue them onto hair clips, clothes pins, or make a game of "pin the bat on the cave (?)" or something cleverer than that by attaching velcro on the back… it's entirely up to you.

A great pattern to use up random scraps of black yarn. Use worsted yarn as shown here to get bats approximately 3 ¾" wide. Or use any sport yarn on hand with a size E hook to get smaller bats. Or use a bulky yarn and size K hook to get bigger bats. Etc., etc…. you get the idea.


Finished Bat Measurement(s): Approximately 3 3/4" wide.

Skill Level: Easy Level Crochet Skirt Pattern/Intermediate Crochet Level

Yarns Used:
 Brown Sheep Company Lamb's Pride Worsted (15% Mohair/85% Wool); 4oz/113g (190yds/173m) per skein: 1 skein Onyx #M-05
NOTE: Each bat only uses approximately 4g of this yarn, less than 7yds per bat.


Gauge(s): 
Pattern Gauge: With bulky yarn and Size H/8 [5mm] hook, each bat is approximately a 3 ¾" wide.
Yarn Label Gauge and Information:
