Knitted Shoe
Well, that’s a shoe that I really like!
You can make your shoes matching your sweaters or mittens ;-)
Although you can do this with some of the previously presented shoes too ;-)

Knitted Glass
Yesterday we knitted with bed sheets, before with plaster bandages and polymer clay, then why not with glass? ;-)

Two-Colour Entrelac
I told you before, that I find simple entrelac knitting boring and that I made it more interesting to me by using different patterns.
I’d never have had the idea to ‘paint’ with different coloured entrelac squares!

Knitter’s Behaviour
When I’m seriously knitting I never lay the needles voluntarily aside.
As you can see here, I’m not the only one who does so ;-)))

Knitted Chairs
I presented a knitted chair before, but it works also this way ;-)

Knitting with Multi-coloured Yarns
I have yarns, too, where I love the colours, but which somehow distroy my patterns with their variegation.
Now I know what I can do with them ;-)

Blocking Knitted Acrylic
I like to knit with acrylic yarns, but I always thought that it can’t be blocked (this is what nearly everybody says).
But it can! ;-))
(By the way: I suppose that also crocheted acrylic can be blocked ;-))
YouKnits Antimacassar / Placemat
An older acquaintance has bought a chair from suede and has forgotten, that the leather will wear down at the arm rests in the course of time.
When she realized this, she asked me to make her brown antimacassars for the arm rests matching the brown chair.
My first thought was: YouKnits!
Because what could be easier (and more appropriate ;-)) than designing a beautiful lace pattern and knitting an antimacassar for the arm rests from? ;-)
Because I haven’t seen the chair myself, but had two different brown yarns (socks wool and crochet thread) I simply made two pairs ;-)
And they were well-received :)
On the photos you see the antimacassars for the arm rests, but they could as well be used as placemats ;-)
(If you click on the photos, you can see larger versions of the photos (in a new window, scroll down there and click on the pictures).)
And that have been the overview pictures that I got from the YouKnits designer:
