Look Ma! I’m on TV!

Friday, August 13th, 2010

OK, so not TV…but YouTube!

I decided to make these short videos to help out with the “Seam as you go” technique used in the Tamarix Quilt. I rigged up my phone with a makeshift wearable tripod, and got to work. (Those iPhone bumpers really are good for something!)

Note about Part 2: I realized after I finally got a good recording for part 2 (these things require many takes), that I did it wrong. OK, not wrong, just that I tell you to pick up the held stitch before turning. In the magazine, I say to pick it up after turning (which is easier). Both ways produce the same result.

Let me know what you think. Also, feel free to join the KAL on Ravelry ~ Hope to see you there!

Knit Along with Me?

Wednesday, August 11th, 2010

I’m planning on knitting another Tamarix Quilt and would LOVE your company! I have started a Ravelry Group for my designs here. Please stop by and share your projects and progress. So far I have only ordered yarn, but I will be sure to post my progress here and on the group as well.

Hope you join me!
