craft stuff

square handled knitting needles are apparently easier to hold on to, I'd like to check these out

Indie Craft Shows.com keeps track of what's going on all over, via The Crafty World

links to knitting machine stuff at Bleu Arts

how to make japanese papercraft boxes at Evil Mad Scientist Laboratories

how to make pretty fabric thumb tacks at How About Orange

and at Craftzine:

I like this swiss cheese scarf with crocheted edging around the holes

how to digitally design fabric and print it on your own printer, neat

  1. The square handled knitting needles apparently make it harder to drop stitches, too... will have to check it out sometime when my budget allows.

  2. whoa, those square needles are crazy expensive and not really necessary. if you're scared about dropping stitches there are cheaper options. just ask any nice old lady at your lys...

  3. Ooh, I love the fabric thumbtack tutorial. I think I will try those in my next go-around. They look nicer than mine:
