How to Knit Socks With Five Knitting Needles
This technique foresees knitting without any seams. Socks are knitted in spiral order, so they perfectly fit your foot. Such socks are knitted from the top of the sock to the toe round-knitted, you should cast on four needles, and the fifth is working one. You should calculate the number of stitches due to your foot circle. Take two measurements from your foot: 1st – instep circle; you should gage your foot from heel to the instep with the tape-measure incline. 2-nd – foot circle; is gaged from th...

What would you like to see at Craftorator?
My dear knitters and crochetters! I have a talkative mood today Let's discuss what would you like to see at Craftorator? More new patterns?

How did you start your knitting or crochetting experience?
Ladies! I decided, that we should also chat here, not just sharing the patterns. This post I'd like to devote to my knitting experience and how I've come to it. I'd like to read your stories in the comments, so, please, support my idea. When I was about 12, I saw my granny crochetting very nice flowered blanket. I knew, that she loved to knit and crochet, but before this I'd never paid any attention. But when I saw how easily and professionally her hands move, and flowers appeared from the threads of ya...

Two Hour Crochet Bag
Before you get started, make sure you have the following: About 250 yards of worsted weight yarn (I like this cotton yarn and this acrylic yarn) An I hook (Clover hooks are my favorites!) A safety pin for marking stitches. A flower or other embellishment to spice it up! NOTE: the chain 2 at the beginning of the first four rounds does NOT count as the first stitch – you will need to work in that stitch you would normally skip. You will be joining rounds in the first true DC stitch rather than th...
