    That jumper is stunning especially as it is your first colourwork project! Please keep us posted on how it goes. I love the dress you are wearing, that fabric enchanted me from the first time you showed us and the dress suits you so well. I would just wear your dress with the stain , the skirt is so full and it has faded a lot. Although I am a bit intrigued to see how a scrunchy black dye would come out! Thanks for this video ❤

      Thank you so much for your lovely comment. I have just filmed an update of the progress of the jumper to come out later this week! I also have been wearing the dress as the stain is so small now! Maybe I will still dye it one day?😊

    Hi ! I love the colours in the dress you are wearing in the video. The duvet dress is amazing. Well-done. I like the reminder about cleaning the bobbin area. Thank you for the video.

    Yes, wear the dress!! It's barely noticeable now among all the fabric 😊 I can't wait to see how your new makes turn out x

    Amelia your jumper you are knitting is stunning. Much respect. Future goals for sure. Your colour choice is soooo nice. I also love your dress. I have this pattern.

    Your knit sweater is gorgeous! I want to try that pattern too, eventually, but I have quite a few things started that I want to complete first. I do love the colours you chose to knit it in. I wouldn't have thought of putting those 2 colours together, but I really like them.

    • @ameliaellensews

      Thanks Jyl, I am really enjoying the knitting. It has been a great project to work on! It is a slow one but I hopefully it will be worth it in the end! 😊

    What a beautiful knitting project Amelia. I am neat lemon fairy washing up liquid on all stains type of person and it generally works. Thank you for your video.

    • @ameliaellensews
      @ameliaellensews  2 місяці тому +1

      Thank you so much for your kind words about the knitting project and your advice about the stain! I think I will just wear the dress now the way it is and then before I wash it next time I will put some fairy liquid on it and let it sit for a good few hours 😊

    Your knitting is so beautiful and you are, definitely,not a novice knitter.The remainder of the jumper is going to be so relaxing for you. I love all your makes. I would wear the denim dress as the stain is so small and would look like a shadow, although I don't think you'd notice it. If you use a tiny drop of original fairy liquid and gently rub it ,in circular motions from the outside of the stain to the inside,using a soft baby toothbrush.Then wet it ,repeat the brushing and then put it in a complete wash cycle it should come out. I've used this for grass,blood,biro stains etc and it always works. I would dry iron the area you treated ,with margarine ,using brown paper to cover it.This will insure all the fat content as been removed, especially if you decide to dye it.

      Thank you so much for the tips about removing the stain. I think I will wear the dress as it is now! And before I wash it next time I will will add the fairy liquid. Thank you so much for your kind words about the knitting, I am really looking forward to getting on with the rest of the jumper 😊

  • @susanjenningsjones
    @susanjenningsjones 2 місяці тому +1

    You could try neat washing up liquid what you use to do the dishes it works well on tough stains.

    • @ameliaellensews
      @ameliaellensews  2 місяці тому +2

      Thank you so much, I will do that before the next wash. The stain is definitely shrinking so I think after the next wash it will be ready to wear 😊

    • @susanjenningsjones

      @@ameliaellensews looking forward to the update. I’m sure over time the stain will fade. 🤞

    I’d definitely wear the dress. The mark is not very noticeable . Love the interesting neck detail on your Caitlin Hunter jumper. I have been knitting on cable needles for about 10 years. I wouldn’t use anything else.

    • @ameliaellensews
      @ameliaellensews  2 місяці тому +1

      Thank you very much! I really like the interesting detail on the neckline too! It also features on the sleeve cuff and waistband too! Are the cable needles the 4 different needles or the long round needle like I have? Sorry I don't know the difference. I usually would knit flat then sew the different parts up. I am enjoying knitting in the round so far though! 😊

    I would also recommend neat good quality washing up liquid (fairy),
    Rub it in with your finger,leave it 24 hours. Then just launder as normal 🤞🏻

    • @ameliaellensews
      @ameliaellensews  2 місяці тому

      Thank you so much for the advice on the stain! I will give this a go! The stain has definitely shrunk which is great! I think it is wearable now but will give it one more wash after using the Fairy liquid as you suggested 😊

      I have also used washing up liquid to remove oil/grease. Soak it in and then add water and do a bit of rubbing. Don’t put margarine on first

    Didn't one of the contestants make that dress this week on the Sewing Bee? It is beautiful 😍

      Yes, this dress did feature on the Sewing Bee! I can't remember who made it though! It really is a lovely pattern. And not to difficult to make 😊

  • @karenjones9548

    Using washing up liquid onto fabric,fold fabric on itself then leave for 12 to 24 hrs..it should go.😊

    • @ameliaellensews
      @ameliaellensews  2 місяці тому +2

      Thank you, I will give that a try! It is so much smaller than what it was! So hopefully that will just get rid of it all for good 😊

  • @barbara1steadman
    @barbara1steadman 2 місяці тому

    Have you considered undoing the gathering above it, cutting the piece out in a strip, sewing a seam, then re-do the gathering. Would that work? 😊

    • @ameliaellensews
      @ameliaellensews  2 місяці тому

      Yes, this is a good idea and I am sure it will work. But the fabric is quite faded now and I don't have any of the original fabric left. I did consider a whole different skirt too. But I think the stain is small enough to try to remove it one more time and then just wear it. Thank you for your suggestion! 😊

    Not sure if you have this in UK but the velvet / sunlight soap or Italian soap used for washing clothes gets alls stain out we have these in Aust and Italian soap works brilliantly

    • @ameliaellensews
      @ameliaellensews  2 місяці тому +1

      I remember having sunlight soap on NZ when I lived there. I will see if I can get my hand on something similar here. Thank you 😊

  • @tuesday7024
    @tuesday7024 2 місяці тому

    It’s not a noticeable stain. Even with you pointing it out and in direct light, it’s not that noticeable amongst the folds of the skirt. Wear the dress as is 👍🏽

    • @ameliaellensews
      @ameliaellensews  2 місяці тому

      Thank you so much! I think it is much improved form what it was! And I think you are right it is wearable now 😊
