I knew fabric bowls and I knew about the scarf sewn with water-soluble sheet.
I find it a great idea to make a bowl with water-soluble sheet.

There was a (not really serious) discussion at ravelry with the question whether it was normal that she always buys yarns.
I especially liked one answer:
“Yarn is not fattening, it has zero calories, no sodium or sugar or carbs, and is VERY high in fiber. It’s practically health food.
So BON APPETIT!!”
Ever since I don’t have a guilty conscience anymore buying yarns ;-))

You can register at ravelry with your username and a valid email address only, with all other information about you it’s up to you whether you give them (at least it was like this when I registered ;-)).
Do you want to knit a sweater like e.g. my YouKnits sweater but wouldn’t know how much yarn you’d need?
Then look at the yarn yardage calculator to get at least an idea.
I often find the ideas best, that work with the simplest means – like the yarn stamp :))

I find this crochet flower really beautiful!
We’ll see what I will make with it, because it can be used for so much more then only a crochet flower brooch :)

Somebody wanted to know recently in the German blog how to braid a square bracelet.
I found out, that you can use all three techniques (braiding, Kumihimo, fingerloop):

Picture center: Kumihimo: Kumihimo tutorial – square braid – firkantfletting
Picture right: fingerloop: Tutorial: START HERE! 5-loop braids
