I have found so many items on etsy that I want to order. The problem is that my husband would never allow me to spend so much. So I have decided to pick a few of my favorites to order and learn to knit/crochet some more simple items.
Above are items I made this weekend: two diaper covers, a hat and a cuddle sack. The first diaper cover is made of thick, cheaper yard. I was just trying to see if I could actually make one. The others are made with an angora and thicker yarn combined.
If I can do this, anyone can. I bought a set of circle looms and long looms and have taught myself how to knit in two weekends. The first weekend I made two hats.
My current project is a nest egg. (I'll add photos once completed).
If you are interested in the cuddle sack, here is the pattern I used:
If interested in the diaper covers, here is the pattern I used:
I found out while making the diaper cover that you need an understanding of crocheting in order to complete this project. It is not all done on the loom.
Now that I know I can make these particular items I will be purchasing more high quality yarns.
