Experimenting with my new fabric yarn balls!

As I was putting some of my latest fabric balls of yarn together, I decided to do some new things! In a couple of the balls, I decided to add grosgrain ribbons...1" and 1/2" widths. I also invested in the Martha Stewart fancy edges for her ergonomic rotary cutter...I used the scallop and the rick rack edges on some of the fabric!

Book Feature: Strip & Knit with Style

by Mark Hordyszynski (Author)
Strip & Knit with Style! No, not that kind of stripping. Strips of fabric! Get your mind out of the gutter and take your knitting to a whole new place with these clever projects, each one made with strips of fabric. Start with surprising fabrics—cotton, rayon, linen, hemp, silk, wool, polyester, even lace, faux fur, polar fleece! Then start knitting, following the simple directions to make sixteen sophisticated projects. Add paint, buttons, feathers, and more to make unique garments (and home accessories) that mean you’ll never have to strip again. Not in the clothes-off way, anyhow.

Happy Reading, Heather

Alternative Yarns: Knitting with Fabric

Many of you know, I love to use unconventional materials to knit and crochet with. These are some of my recent color combinations that I have put together to use. These groupings come with 20 individual strips of fabric. Each strip of fabric is 8 yards in length, making a total of 160 yards per bundle. Each bundle retails for $15.00 for 160 yards.

My fabric yarn strips are available at heatherknitz.com, on etsy and in my lollishops store!
