DIY Knitting Patterns and Tutorials

Knitting is one of the crafts I’ve been meaning to learn forever. Years ago, I received a ‘how to’ knitting book with all the supplies needed for beginners. I must have looked over the book and tried to knit a bunch of different ways for over a week – but just couldn’t get anywhere! I’m thinking about going to a class at Jo-Ann’s – hopefully they can teach me! In the mean time, here are some free patterns and tutorials for those who can knit.

Faux Fur: What Can I Do With It?

So.. what can you do with it? I see it at Jo-Ann’s all the time, and honestly wonder what the heck could possibly be done with it. This post lists everything that I could find, with tutorials!

Actually, I made this stocking with some faux fur for my fiance’s niece. I hope she loves it!
