    Stripes Please By Amy Gunderson 💜 Yes, It's Scraps, And Depending On Your Preference It Can Be Worn Several Different Ways 💚 The Only Rule Is To Keep Certain Colors Apart, Or Put Them Together 😂 Love To The Scraps! And To Everyone Else!

    Scrappy projects are nice. I am working on a knitted dress. It's a stripy pattern. It's also a remake from a dress I owned in 1986.

    I found that the Seaglass patterns from Wool & Pine are fantastic for using up scraps, and there is no striping involved! You do you, but for me, don't like stripes. So these patterns allow for endless creativity and result in gorgeous garments. I've made two of the tees & three of the hats, and have plans for a sweater! Love watching your videos, Martina!❤ Thanks for the ideas!😊

    Omg I WISH I'd made my mitred square blanket holding yarns double!! I started it in around 2017/8 when they were really popular and I'd just started knitting. Hopefully this winter will be the one when I finish it. 🤣🤞 Fingering weight yarn on 2.75mm needles UGH!!

    Thank you. You’re so right about limitations. Having a limited quantity or colors of yarn can prompt you to choose outside of your usual mode. The result might be a wonderful surprise you would not have discovered had you stayed within your normal boundaries. 🥰👌

    I am currently working on a woolen bedspread with just scraps. Im using only wools and wool blends and I dont have enough scraps to finish it right now, but I know I always have somewhere to use my wool scraps.

    Ciao Martina! Love the idea of using up every bit of our yarn and I agree about this making us more creative....I actually think, like you, that any simple pattern, even self drafted is ideal for using up our yarn in a creative way, and actually any project can be made into stripes or other...Veronika lindberg (kutovakika) also made the stripey dress after the sweater, I was thinking of knitting at some point her "lola top", which has a retro vibe to me (I actually have a similar pattern in a pretty knitting book and am going to check that one out first), it has stripes too...another scrappy project I saw being made from a lovely french youtuber I follow, Nathalie from Simoneetginette, it's the "sea glass sweater" from wool&pine, although it looks like a lot of work because if I remember it is every row a different color and a lot of ends to weave in....will start thinking about what to make...I am a veeeery slow knitter so if I want to even try to participate I need to start thinking soon! 😂 much love to all 4 of you 🌺🌸🌺🌸

    thank you so much for this video, it was extremely helpful for me as someone with a lot of anxiety who is struggling to get back into crafts 🔥
    especially the parts about not neccessarily making garments (i can use some washcloths and pillow stuffings ☺), which has this high risk of not fitting or otherwise not being good enough for a perfectionist like me - who has gained more weight than ever before, so needs new clothes urgently but is very insecure about what styles look flattering on this "new" body - and can't afford a lot of new clothes!
    this has really motivated me to takes first steps and go through my ancient yarn stash 🥰

      Oh I'm so glad this gave you some inspiration 🤎 I know how hard it can be to make something for yourself after some time and changes in your physical self. Take all the time you need and be gentle with yourself🤎 and you don't have to necessarily make your own clothes, you can find second hands stores and try things out🤎💐

    • @sujammaz
      @sujammaz 11 місяців тому +1

      @@wegrowild right, another good idea to not neccessarily go to the second hand shops to buy things, but just try them on and see what looks good and then decide where to go from there! i can even do that in regular shops 🧐
      was thinking to cut costs by buying curtains, tablecloths and linen second hand, and putting pressure on myself to sew them into clothes, but your hint has taken more of that pressure away, seeing it as just one of mutliple steps i can take later, after i found out what styles i really want 🤩
      thank you again and much love to you and your human and canine family 💕🧔🐻‍❄🐻‍❄💕

      @@sujammaz yes, let's that pressure out of ourselves 🤍🌱you'll find your style I'm sure, and your style can always change depending on what gives you joy. Sometimes I see a color or an item of clothing that is not "in my style" but it gives me so much joy and excitement that I make it or buy it anyway ...and then I end up using it more than any other item in my wardrobe 🤎

    The Anesidora Shawl from Larkspur Knits is a great scrappy pattern. It’s a triangular shawl where you start small and add increases until you get the full length of the shawl. You could use your smallest scraps at the beginning and end and larger amounts of leftovers for the longer middle section. She has several variations, so if you don’t like a super scrappy look she has suggestions for working the pattern with full skeins of a main colour and incorporating scraps as an accent. Also great for using up minis and advents.
