Heather Knitz News

May 2009The Knitty Gritty...

♥Unique rag bags and rag bag kits♥Sassy hair and jewelry accessories♥Funky art and crafting supplies♥DIY patterns and tutorials

I have been busy setting up and updating my other online shops on HK on Dawanda
HK on 1000 Markets

I have also been working behind the scenes on 10 new rag patterns including a belt, eco market bag, scarf and jewelry! Those will begin to be available over the next month or so!

*Coming Soon* Kickoff to Summer Rag Bag Purse Kit Giveaway! That's right, I'm having a giveaway on my pattern blog that will include a rag bag pattern and red bandana print fabric kit with coordinating ribbons and handles!Hk Pattern Blog

What's New?
I have been playing around with my button id badges. I have to admit they are SO FUN to make...I love mixing the colors and patterns! I just made 50 new styles using some new fabrics I just received from Lakehouse! One of my favorites are the hydrangea leaves and the cupcakes (of course:).
The "knitty" gritty...
-The reel comes with a clip on back and badge snap on id holder
-Retractable cord extends approximately 24"
-These are great to clip onto your pocket, purse or lanyard
New Id Badges
But, if you are a DIY-er, I also made the tutorial on how to make them! DIY ID badge tutorial

Are you on Ravelry? Join the Fabric Knitting and Crochet Group
This is a general discussion group as well as CAL/KAL group for anyone interested in knitting and crocheting with fabric strips instead of traditional yarn.
Anyone can join our group to eavesdrop or to participate in our monthly/bi monthly challenges!
Fabric Knitting & Crochet
Knitty Fun Fact...
Most historians agree that knitting originated with male Arabian sailors and was basically a male-only craft until fairly recently in it's history. In many non-western cultures knitting has remained prominent amongst men and is now considered a unisex hobby.

UNC Team Beanie Pattern + Kit!

Cascade 220 Team Beanie - Atlantic Coast Conference Kit - Hats and Gloves

link: http://www.jimmybeanswool.com/knitting/yarn/Kits/Cascade200TeamBeanieAtlanticCoastConference.asp

Cascade 220 Team Beanie - Atlantic Coast Conference Kit - Hats and Gloves
(click for large image)
Why not knit up a hat in team colors for your college student or your alma mater, or to show support for your favorite team? The optional Head Huggers pattern shown will knit up like a beanie--follow our instructions for striping below, or add stripes as desired to make it all your own.
We've done our best to match colors, but if you have suggestions please let us know!
If you don't see your team, check out the other conferences listed (with over 140 teams, they had to be divided somehow!).
  • The pattern calls for size US 7 16" circulars and double points, not included.
  • The gauge is approximately 4.5 stitches per inch, but the pattern gives instructions for other gauges if you find you're knitting more tightly or loosely. Be sure to check your gauge!
Recommended stripe pattern:
  • Knit in MC for 1" from cast on edge. Knit in CC for 1", then return to MC (or use a second contrasting color if your team has one! Black and white are usually safe for a third color if you like the three-stripe look, too!).
  • If you've used a second contrasting color, return to MC after 1". Finish the pattern in MC.
Optional pattern: Ann Norling - 55 - Head Huggers
