Photos of your Knitting

Published by DK under Great Ideas, Techniques

One of the members on the Secret of the Stole KAL group asked about taking better photos of their knitting. Mr. K is a photographer so it never really was something I had to think about. However, I did find this photography lesson on the Daily Chum to be very informative.

Another helpful little thing I found while surfing this morning was this nifty little chart.  Download it and take it with you when you are yarn shopping.  Or, basically just keep it in your purse or wallet, because who is not always yarn shopping?  I only wish I had found this chart in time to post for those attending Rhinebeck this weekend.

Non-skid Slippers

Published by DK under Felting, Great Ideas, Knitting

Non-skid Slippers

Here is a great tip for making your new felted slippers non-skid. What a great idea! Next time you make felted slippers, house socks, or even a felted bag you might give this technique a try. Since felting is just not my thing, I think I may use this technique on some other items in the house. Ohhh, wouldn’t this be a great thing to do to things on the boat to keep them from sliding around?
