Lace, Lace, and More Lace, & a Patreon Update

Five narrow, knitted edgings.

First a little housekeeping: Regular visitors may have noticed I have removed mention of my fledgeling Patreon from the site. This is because I very quickly came to the realisation that I cannot make tutorials and downloads on a strict schedule any more. This means the ads on the website will stay (unless I win the lottery, ahem).

BUT!

This is good news for everyone, previous Patreon members included. Firstly, I refunded everyone with a paid membership. This is because I’m still going to supply all of the original tutorials and patterns I was going to use to reward Patreon members, I’m just going to post them here with ads. I’ve also updated my CSS file so all of the ads disapppear when you print a page again, which means all you have to do to save any pattern or tutorial as a nice clean pdf is hit print and choose to save as a pdf, or you can print them on paper.

So now all that’s out of the way, I hope you enjoy the first set of 19th century lace edging patterns I released. The Baby Edging Collection. They are:

Baby Edge

Baby Edging from Weldon’s Practical Knitter

Edging for a Baby’s Body

Baby Lace (1) from 5,000 Gems for the Household and

Baby Lace (2) from Needlecraft Knitted Edgings.

I will also be writing a series of tutorials for making Teneriffe Lace, and Plush Template Embroidery that will be added to over the years to become more than I could have ever published in book form. I will upload the first few tutorials over the coming weeks.

I hope you enjoy these techniques and patterns as much as I do.

A New Free Knitting Pattern!

A short sleeved women's pullover with puffed, short sleeves and diamond lace pattern.

I have returned to adding new knitting and craft content to the website here at Knitting-and.com.

Today, I have a new pattern for a classic 1940’s lacy jumper, or sweater called the Bracken-Fern Lace Summer Jumper.

I have taken the pattern from 1947, updated it into modern knitting terms, added a chart for the lace stitch and finally figured out how to make sure none of the ads print when you print it out (or to a pdf if you have that capability)..

If you’d like to be notified whenever I post here, please consider signing up to my newsletter (there’s a form under this post). And leave a comment on what you’d like to see more of!
