LIVING THE HISTORY: February 2020

Then work the Wrist Edging. Or we could say: attach picots 2 in a row, then skip a stitch before attaching the next 2 in a row. Continue making picots and attaching in pattern around: start picot, attach to next stitch, start picot, skip a stitch and attach. Start third picot as others, but skip an sc before attaching. When you reach the desired length, it's time to loop around and start working back the other way. The deadline for entries is Saturday, August 23, 2014 (midnight, US Central Daylight Time). Also included in the giveaway will be a copy of either Crochet More 2014 OR Crochetscene 2014 - whichever the winner prefers. It's been way too long since I've had a giveaway, so while I was at the Knit and Crochet Show I collected a few goodies to pass on to one of you. While working the Normal Decrease Rounds, try on your mitt every few rounds. Note: With every Normal Decrease Round, the thumb count will decrease by 1 stitch.



Note: For extra stability, you may (if you like) pass the needle again through all the beads added in Steps 5-8, on both sides of the button. Step 3: Pass the needle through the next small bead and the next large bead, then pull firmly on both thread ends to snug up the beads. Step 7: String a small bead, and pass the needle back up through the center bead. On offer: some swooningly beautiful hand-dyed yarn from Nightingale Fibers, a luscious lanolin lip balm from Long Island Livestock Company, and a cheery pink mini-cozy hook or needle bag by Namaste. I thought that I had lost my two front teeth but thankfully all I did was chip one of them and had to walk home with an enormous fat lip. Soon we turn another corner and head back down to the lowlands, through stretches of wood where the shade is cold, making me long for home and warmth.



A soldier would maybe write home citing a memory of a family trip to Blackpool letting his family know that he is in France, the Blackpool Tower he mentions in his letter would be the family code word for the Eiffel Tower in Paris. Caucasian comes from the word "Caucasus" as in Caucasus Mountains on the Northeastern Shore of the Black Sea. Wrist Edging Round 1, back loop only: Do not turn, chain 1 (does not count as stitch.) Starting in same stitch, working in the back loop only, single crochet around. Starting in same stitch, working in the back loop only, hdc around. Finishing Round 10: Hdc around until you reach the first marker. Join last hdc to first hdc with Slipped Slip Join. Between last Monday's ride and today's, there's a marked difference in the number and appearance of wildflowers. 1. Hdc in last hdc from row below. Simply stop decreasing and back work plain hdc rounds to the wrist.



If you reach the end of the decreases, but the mitt is still too short, work plain hdc rounds until bottom edge just touches your wrist, ending 1 stitch into thumb area. 2together, then hdc in the same stitch as the second half of the decrease. Hdc around body until you get back to the first decrease. You can get them to cut off at the wrist or in the middle of your wrist and elbow. Chain 1, cut yarn several inches away from project, and gently pull yarn tail up and out of stitch. Photo 4: Your beads should now look like this, with the shorter thread tail coming out of a small bead, and the longer working thread (with the needle at the end) coming out of a large bead. Here, the shorter "barbs" are on the right of the rachis - which is of course, on the outer edge of the tail. I live in an area on the edge of the Illawarra Escarpment. It's an all-glass bridge that lets travelers walk an amazing 70 feet over the edge until they are standing a heart-pounding 3,500 feet over the bottom.
