When my daughters were young, in the mid ‘80s’ I knit them so many sweaters and many of them I embroidered on, daisies on the shoulkers and around the neck, puppies, kittens resting on sleeves. They loved them and I always thought little details add so much to the project... love you , you are the sweetest and love the channel.. ❤️🥰🇨🇦
Thank you so much! Appreciate it. 💕
Took me right back to the 60s when we embroidered on our jeans, overalls and jackets and pretty much everything !! I still have some of those pieces as keepsakes. Embroidery on knitting would make it so special. First I have to learn how to knit the sweater. 😆. Thank you for creative ideas and beautiful patterns!! 🧶💕🧶
You're very welcome! And you can learn knitting, we'll be here along the way to help. 💕
If you don’t want a big ole chunky knot rubbing against your skin, my mom always just left a longer tail of yarn and tied it in like you would any tail end of yarn. Then it is much smoother to wear. There is really no need for a typical embroidery knot in your clothing using yarn.
Thank you for this suggestion. Greatly appreciated! 💕
Very pretty. Have done a lot of cross stitch. I would recommend washing embroidery thread/floss first so the dye doesn't bleed all over a finished garment.
Thanks for the tips! 😊
How would you do that without making a mess in the washing machine?
@@tacobelljunkie8418 hand wash the embroidery floss, squeeze out excess water and hang to dry. See how much dye bleeds thru with the washing. Some colours, like red, are more prone to bleeding. Hope this clarifies things.
@@valeriehowden471 Definitely! Thank you for responding! I hope you have a great day.
So at first you pulled the needle thru the middle of a stitch, then later thru the holes around the stitch. What is the reason for each? Thanks
Hi there, yes, you pull the needle through the middle of a thread to secure the beginning knot. Later you can pull it through the holes because the thread is already secured. I hope this answers your question! 💛
Can you do this on crochet items? I love this idea ... thanks for taking this to a whole new level! 🙋💐
Yes you can! 💕💕💕
Beautiful sweater and great idea to add embroidery to embellish it. For new embroiderers I think it would have been helpful to have you use the pen you recommended at the beginning to draw lines, circles, etc. Drawing on your knitted work can be extremely intimidating…
Thank you for the suggestion. 😊
Hi Chandi. What a wonderful idea! I have never embroidered on knitting. Thanks so much for this wonderful tutorial! Embroidery is so beautiful and really enhances the sweater although the sweater is great on its own too. I have a sweater I am finishing or hope to one of these days and I may try embroidering on it. It’s mostly stockinette. Thanks also for this lovely pattern! Have a wonderful long weekend!!💞
You are so welcome! Enjoy making it. 💕
Thank you!💕
Great tutorial for a starter like myself! Beautiful! 🥰
Thank you!! 😊
Hi Chandi, this is brilliant . I've done some embroidery but on a already lined cloth . I want to try this method on a blanket . Thank you for all the great tips . Have a great weekend love
My pleasure. I hope you blanket will turn out beautiful. 💕
Please

New Subscriber from India ❤️❤️❤️ Loved all your Works 😘😘😘 You are really Creative 👍👍👍
Yay, welcome! 💕
Thank you. You are an excellent instructor. Always so clear. 😊❤️
You are so welcome! 💕
Nice and simple, your explanation to me is a request. It is possible to activate the video for translation into Arabic, and you have a lot to say 🌹🌹
Hi Doda, thank you for your message. As far as I know you can let UA-cam auto-translate the subtitles. Try this trick:
Turn on closed captions, and click on the Settings (the gear icon). Choose Subtitles/CC and to the right of that there is a language option. Use that to select Auto-Translate, and then choose Arabic. UA-cam will automatically translate the closed captions for you.
I hope this works! Have a nice day! 💕
Hi Chandi!😸 You always bring us such cute items. Thank you for sharing. Much appreciated. Can't wait to try embroidery. 👍🙏
My pleasure 😊
I have a beautiful baby sweater, hat and bootie pattern set. It’s a lovely set that contains a picot edging and small rose buds that you embroider around the hem and cuff. It wasn’t recommended, but I used a sharp needle and beading foundation behind the fabric. It prevents stretching and puckering. I used the thinnest foundation I could find so it wouldn’t be too stiff. It made such a difference and I drew the pattern in a washable ink pen. The knitted fabric was made using a white fingering weight yarn so I was able to lightly see the design beneath it
That sounds so gorgeous! Thank you for the embroidering tips. 💕
Good morning my memory when back when I was learning the basic to make ladies dresses and I have to learn how to do this flowers but in fabric thank you in nice to remember those times
Glad to hear that! Enjoy. 💕
I love it! The embroidery is so cute on that sweater. Thank you Chandi...🤗😚
Glad you like it! ❤️
My new favorite part of Fridays. Beautiful knitting/crocheting with Chandi and the folks at EFA!
Aww, thank you for saying that! 💕
Thank you I enjoyed watching you ❤and I would like to learn how to make it
Awesome! 😍
O my Godess, I always wanted to learn how to embroidery, I thought it is very hard, you make it so easy 🥰
I'm so glad to hear that! Enjoy. 💕
Good
Thanks!
wonderful, mom taught me embroidery...
Aww, thank you so much! 💕
I like your video! Can you also explain how to fix the yarn when embroidery is finished? That would be very kind!
Unfortunately, we don't have a tutorial on it but I found this one here: ua-cam.com/video/aQEbtmsC2fU/v-deo.html
I hope this is helpful. Have a nice day! 💕
@@ExpressionFiberArts thank you for your answer and the link!
Beautiful just the right amount is stitch work.🙏❣🙃
Thank you! 💕💕💕
Is there anything you can place on the back to cover the threads?
Hi Michelle, I'm not sure if I understand correctly. Are you referring to the embroidery on the back? If so you don't have to add embroidery on the back of the sweater. It's totally up to you where you'd like to have it. 💕
Que bonito, eu gosto dessa moça, pena que não entendo o idioma 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Glad you like it! Unfortunately, we don't offer our patterns in different languages but you can try this trick:
Turn on closed captions, and click on the Settings (the gear icon). Choose Subtitles/CC and to the right of that there is a language option. Use that to select Auto-Translate, and then choose Spanish. UA-cam will automatically translate the closed captions for you.
I hope this helps! 💕
@@ExpressionFiberArts sim vou tentar, obrigado 🥰😘💐
Thank you! Always beautiful 🌿💕
You are so welcome! 💕
Получилось очень нежно ,женственно 👌🙏♥️🌺
Thank you 💞
Thank you Chandi. I'm a beginner and this is wonderful! ❤
Awesome idea. Thanks for sharing
My pleasure! 💕
Thank you Chandi 😊🙌💕✨
Welcome 😊
What type of yarn/thread did you use for the sweater?
This sweater was made in our Dewy DK base (www.expressionfiberarts.com/categories/dk/dewy-dk.html). It's a 70% Superwash Merino Wool, 20% Nylon, 10% Silk blend that is great for everything from blankets and sweaters.
I hope this answers your question. 🥰
How brilliant and lovely too!💖
Thank you! 💕💕💕
Comme toujours magnifique Bravo
Thank you so much! Appreciate it. 💕
Do you have to use a darning needle? Or will any embroidery needle work?
Thanks for the question, an Embroidery needle will work as well 💕
@@ExpressionFiberArts thank you!!
Nice work. Thanks
My pleasure! 💕
Is the pattern for the embroidery included with the knitting pattern? or could it be made available? The sweater is gorgeous and the tutorial is really helpful.
The pattern includes a photo tutorial that shows the individual embroidery stitches, but where you place the embroidered elements is up to you and not written out.
Beautiful. I am going to try
Love this great idea.
Glad you like it! 💕
🤩🤩🤩👏👏👏👏😘😘😘🇵🇹🇵🇹
💕💕💕
On a blanket how would you trace it big ?
You'd do it the same way like on a smaller piece. Draw your design as big/small as you like and then continue the steps explained int the tutorial. I hope this makes sense. Have a great day! 💕
@@ExpressionFiberArts , what kind of paper do you usually use?
🤗🤗🤗 i will make it now🤗🤗🤗☺⚘🌻
Have fun! 💕
@@ExpressionFiberArts 😊🌻😘
O bijuterie....😍😍😍👏👏👏
Thank you! 💕
How could you possibly know this was my newest hyperfocus and I would be looking for tutorials for this very thing...........?
Always look forward to your videos, such calm and insightful instructions that are easy to follow. Much Love!!
You're very welcome. You know we do read minds. 🤣
No we don't but I'm glad we had this tutorial ready in time for you to find it. 💕
Thanks!
My pleasure! 💕
Todo muy bello si pudieras en español seria genial ❤❤❤❤❤
Unfortunately we don't offer our patterns in other languages. But you can try this trick for UA-cam: Turn on closed captions, and click on the Settings (the gear icon). Choose Subtitles/CC and to the right of that there is a language option. Use that to select Auto-Translate, and then choose Spanish. UA-cam will automatically translate the closed captions for you.
Does it matter how thick the yarn is?
Do you mean for the embroidery? If so, I'd go a bit thinner than the fabric you're stitching on. 💙
@@ExpressionFiberArts thank you.
Amazing ❤
