12 Months; 7 Projects


This is a great publication for all of my 2020 web projects. Of course it’s late but they don’t take into account that my 2018 and 2019 publications are still unpublished. But I’m still thinking about implementing it. During those two years I designed several of my knitting projects and before I started printing the patterns I stopped wanting to write and print designs. BANNER. I only have six crochet patterns I want to print by the end of 2021 and I have two draft “collector’s notes” when the patterns are ready. In the meantime, if anyone would like to see what I’m up to, I’ll post them regularly on Modwardian blog about individual projects.

As for the photo above ... I wanted to select the most beautiful details of the year to focus on this general publication, but this year the image above is not a very memorable photo but it certainly looks very appropriate for 2020. Everyone knows that there has to be a year of garbage for everyone. However, we have reason to hope that 2021 will be a better one: that the vaccination process against COVID-19 is continuing and that the political landscape has changed as a result of public opinion polls - again with a responsible president.

In 2020 my life has not changed much compared to most people. I have a chronic burout problem and have been struggling financially for years and have lost more or less money because I have no money or energy to go anywhere. Sometimes when I see or hear complaints about isolation and practical problems caused by epidemics, I think, "Hello, and welcome to the world." Most of the steps I’ve taken to save money and labor have yielded good results during the epidemic: I only go to the market once a week and never eat; I deliberately choose a well-developed hairstyle so that it doesn’t get cut twice a year; I dyed my hair, smoothed my nails, and washed my eyebrows; I have a lot of friends online and most of them are "online"; I do my hobby alone at home; I use all the rubbish and know how to fix and maintain things, reduce the number of things I buy and so on.

I still have epilepsy. I’d say I’m a little more productive this year than usual, as my chronic fatigue worsens, perhaps with all this anxiety [unclear signs]. Sewing also has an impact on my work, which sometimes makes it difficult for me to get the materials I need or give them to the people I work with, even if they are made by me. BANNER. In 2020 I did what I thought was a coronavirus blanket and a 38 face mask . I have given 5 to myself, 13 to family and friends and 20 to sell.

But let’s look at some of the things I’m weaving when I’m home alone in 2020.





My first point project in January 2020 was today for my grandson’s seventh birthday sweater.

BANNER. In late 2019, as I was planning my sweater project for next year, I searched for Ravlry to find a design that matched Bug’s birthday sweater and came across the Damla Design Beach Strip, which you can see in the photo above. . There is something very interesting in the position of the scarf and I decided to make a sweater something patterned or as similar as possible. I visited Romney Wall in December and bought a thread for three projects, one of which was Bug. I used Cascade Yarns 220 Superwash with Gray , White, Navy, True Red and Turtle. All colors go very well with the gray-green pattern, but very few with the rest of the colors. The Arran described in the 220 SuperWash model is a belt thread that weighs more than the weight, but in this case the design requires 5mm instead of 4.5mm because the design requires half the size of a large needle.






And the finished product is here. It was a very simple sweater that I finished in two weeks. The design changes I made are not gray as in the example, but with the bottom and blue side of the wallet. This saved me money because I was able to complete this project with a single gray thread (and then I bought another gray thread that I bought for a loan) and a blue thread. I made a mistake on the goal line, but it doesn't matter; he seems to have done it. I’m happy with the result, but classic and chic.






He doesn’t pay much attention to clothes at this age, so I bought him a few bucks at the store to play with. She enjoys reading, prefers non-fiction to non-fiction, and is fascinated by science, so I bought her two children’s books, National Geographic, a puppet kaleidoscope, and two new masks. I’m sure this isn’t described here as the pillow I got on her fifth birthday, but my nephew told me he was happy with Bug’s gift.

After finishing this project, I only have 160 grams of thread that I just bought.






The project started when she decided to order heavy khaki pants and a summer cotton sweater. I liked the idea of ​​a Breton sweater in contrasting olive and color, so I decided to sew in that style.







I was looking for an attractive modern Breton sweater from Emteedee, with only a matching sweater design from Raverly and Strips! I went looking for this and it looks great in every photo of the project I’ve seen. I visited a Romani yarn store in Toronto to buy a matching yarn and was delighted to find the 200 g Schachenmayr Catania Solids 253 Jade and 200 G444 shades in the perfect Roman Buy shade. , Not seen in Ravelli or ShekenMayr, but deep olive.







And it’s the result of pairing it with an open khaki dress I made a few years ago. My pants and shorts go well with dark olive khaki and a sweater, but I can't wear a shirt.

I had to work it out in less than three weeks with nine stupid excuses that took away my sweaters. At first, I thought the 38-inch size in Germany was 38 inches. It wasn’t like that and all of a sudden I went to the movies. I had to break everything and start over with size 42. Then I realized that my sweater was going to be too long because my body was shrinking; I had to consider it a bit with the dashes. Then I started designing two rows of olive trees instead of just one.

Then I realized that I didn't get enough of it. I went back to Romney Wool’s where I had 50g more olives and 50g more jade - the last Jade Strawberry and I’d like to eat enough. thread

Then I realized that I was about to finish my first sleeve and it would be very short and I had to cut and calculate the exact length of the line design (I had to add * two *) (8 rows jade / 8 rows olive slit) and it will be woven again along the way.

Then, as soon as I started working on my first arm, I realized that I had made a mistake by adding a yoke. The result is very short compared to the measurements on the table and I added an inch because that last inch was wrong because of the stitches thrown under my armpit when sewing the body. This one-inch yoke I added makes it very long and makes the body very short, which makes it uncomfortable. At first I couldn’t resist the idea of ​​taking off my full sweater and thought I could live with it, but after finishing the first sleeve I realized I couldn’t. I raised my arm, pulled under my yoke, and wove again. I did it this time. You can imagine how many extra ends I have when it comes to finishing a sweater, but I just did it and I did.

I think I tied this sweater three times. Luckily, after all that, I like the sweater a lot.

I only had 40 grams of thread per color, so I bought the right thread for my sweater. Since this project is made with new thread, that means an extra 80 grams.






My third project plan is to have my sweater list ready by the end of 2019 and I have decided to wear a 2020 Christmas gift sweater for my sister Olivia. I have selected the most beautiful designs that require heavy DK wires. Then on Christmas Eve 2019, I bought 700g Loops & Threads Meandering Serpentine in Dark Salmon 2019 Sochi . ( The pope had a big sock to fill my parents' place .) Instead of buying a new thread, I decided to use a piece of thread to sew Olivia's sweater — it's a matching color — so I wanted to design a belt that fits her weight. . .





I chose the Vera Sano design described above. It’s a beautiful classic fabric and I’ve always sold it with no problem with the Celtic cord.






So I decided that what I really needed to do was learn how to do it right. Little girls want matching accessories such as hats and handbags. I’m not very optimistic about the design of the cap; it should be a full-length model with a curved weight to match the sweater. I chose a small bird hat made of Bierstadt thread .






And a sweater ready for work. The design is simple and well written, allowing the texture to move smoothly. It is made of colored thread, so it has a very small touch. After my last project, the relief was great.






Then I made the hat. Instead of fitting the band to the pattern I wanted, I sewed the neckline, cuffs and striped stitches at the ends. In the design I drew the dots used on the body of the hat and made the hat into a plain sock. Then I added the cans to make the hat a little flat.






Sweaters and hats together make up a small collection. I bought him some dollar supplies: a picture book, a coloring book and a pencil case, a sealed hedgehog toy, some hairpins, and so on. She gave me a Christmas present and her mother took a picture of her and sent me an email when she opened the Christmas present. Olivia's picture is quite accurate , especially spectacular - she is of French origin and seems a little Parisian to talk about her personality and her new movement.

Considering that I didn’t buy it myself, this project uses thread, which I think is 240 grams. I still have 460 grams of Ringing Serpentine, but don't worry - I plan to use it.







For me, this 460g sewing thread is enough for a sweater.






I’m not surprised by the salmon color on my face, but I think it can be worn with some greens. I have 100 grams of green lime in the trash can (I bought it a long time ago, I don't know which brand) and I have to buy a green olive camera. I was looking for a three color design to go with Ravelry and came across the Jennifer Steingass Vintersol design pictured above. All right. And then I found a soft piece of red heart on this black sheet . It’s not the perfect combination for Aran’s hummingbird, but green is hard to coordinate, and getting the right shade is Michael’s only skin.






And this is where the project ends. As it turned out, I wove it up and changed its shape a bit. The design wanted the sweater to fit the hips to the chest, but I made the hips wider than the chest because I was smaller than my hips and chest and didn’t need that extra needle. The sweater has the same width as the chest. I still can’t get the salmon silk out there, but it won’t be next to the grapes, and it’s definitely a sweater to wear at home (and probably without losing it). None of the dresses match this sweater, so I had to wear an olive-colored dress with the sweater in this photo, but to match it I paired it with the olive-colored khaki I usually wear at home in the winter.

This project used 100 grams of lemon, olives and 270 grams of salmon that I bought, which is a discount of 370 grams. I still have 190 g of salmon left. Oh, I’m sure I can plan another project sooner or later. After all, this is something I really want to do.






My next project is a Mother’s Day gift. My mother’s owl has it all. “They are wise and have big eyes,” he said. When planning or buying a gift for him, I try to consider important aspects of his interest. Over the years, owl cloth bags, brooms, owl Christmas decorations, metal owl candy, owl scarves, owl plates, and red owl kitchen timers (turn heads).





When I came across the Oswald owl head design above in Martin Story, I realized that I had given it to my mother. It’s a pretty simple design for adults, but it’s amazing and sleek and stylish.





This is my version of the Oswald owl. I use loops and threads in my perfect posts and tweets . I was trying to neutralize my mother’s decisions about where to place her at home, and while I was getting ready, I was too advanced and pale on the neutral stage. Ugly, but after doing that I realized that I didn't look good.






The design is to sew the pillow on only four sides, but I think it takes more effort to get the pillow up the zipper - all you have to do is remove the pillowcase and clean it. I chose the zipper as the main color of the pillow but I don’t have that color and the zipper box is brown on the opposite thread and I follow this example . I had to rip off the brown hat I was wearing and reuse it as a sweater because it was partially worn out; the zipper is rigid and durable and is an inexpensive and environmentally friendly method. Close the zipper so that it does not break or break in good condition.

I think the brown zipper looks good. However, this does not mean that the pillow is straight and usually straight. BANNER. The idea for the zipper came to me in 2018: tie two knitted chains, sew them on the zipper, and then use the knitted chain loops to sew the pillow to the zipper. ( This article provides a more descriptive and detailed description of this method.)

I made my ivory pillow. In my opinion, making pillowcases is a little cheaper than buying them (and less time consuming than buying them), as long as you have plenty of sewing fabric, and make it in the right size and function properly. The fullness you need.

Although this pillow will be in mid-August, this year is a Mother’s Day gift ( two mask boxes and a piece of cloth ). My mom wasn’t very happy with the pillow but she didn’t seem to like it and won. My sister warns my mother that when my sister peach or grandmother comes home, she should look at these pillows, because they are also strange and can disappear in silence if they leave the pillow.




This next project was created because I wanted to combine a brown hat and scarf with a plain brown winter coat. I thought it would be a wonderful destination for Fair Island designers. I also decided to make a pair of brown gloves to complete the collection. BANNER. I still have the brown gloves I made in 2014 , but I dress like I would rather have a pair of second pair sweaters to carry in my bag. I have a coat







I searched for Ravelly and found the first Pine Creek favorite design, Mary Henderson . I chose two shades of brown and a contrasting color. Which model of gloves should I wear now? I don’t want to sew gloves on this beautiful island either, because my rule is to wear two matching embroidered fabrics, the embroidered look is nice, the three different embroidered fabrics of the same different design are a good thing - they look very similar. But I can tie the gloves with the same dark brown thread to make it look like a collection and then I can wear the gloves separately with all the winter coats.






While I was looking for matching gloves at Ravelli, I decided to design Marca Marie ’s Nisu design . They’re not too basic, they’re basic, and I think the design of the rear cables would complement the design of the Pine Creek Island Fair.

With my style choices, I went to the Romney Wall in Toronto to find a thread. I bought three strawberries from MySsol Sulka Nina at Cafe Royal, a beautiful blend of merino wool, alpaca and silk, and then two contrasting light brown sandwiches . Alpaca : 2652 umbrella covered with the same thread in the shade and 3508 pumpkin in the shade.







As you can imagine, this project involves a lot of work that involves not only thin threads and tiny needles, but also a beautiful island. But it went smoothly. I don't think I made a mistake. One of my regrets is that I didn’t choose the black color of the Sandans Thirst Mini Alpaca 2652; the higher the contrast rate makes it more interesting and has a better design effect. Because I like it very much.

This is my first article. I love the covers - they are very useful because they stay in place, which means they have less chance of fading and covering - but I prefer the look of the scarf. Although I’m thinking of turning the cover design into a scarf design, here’s how the hood goes in this particular project. The bottom of the island’s hood doesn’t look attractive and I don’t want to wear the island’s hooded sleeve. I love having the hat ready, it’s great.








No more. This is a very beautiful model. The photos do not show the light orange thread - here the patient is yellow gold.

when it is hidden and finished it goes to the gloves.







When he was working on gloves, he took me seriously. True Glove Who raised you ?








Beautiful and comfortable gloves ready. Apparently, wearing these gloves reminds me why I don’t wear gloves often. They are made very nice and fast. I think it’s worth it sometimes because it wears gloves that fit perfectly. . .
