Of course you wouldn't have to do as many rows as me or even the same size thread. Yarn could even be your choice, just use the right hook for the size of yarn you use. Also yarn would work up much quicker but still have the same type of feel.
Once you know the technique you can use it to make scarfs, baby blankets, edgings and what ever your mind thinks up.

Well, I wasn't going to ask, since I know you're busy packing and whatnot, but since you brought it up...I would LOVE some instruction! I've been staring at these pictures for a few days now, and I just can't figure out how to do it, lol.

I have just started making fabric yo-yo. Now a yarn yo-yo would be very cool. I too have been trying to figure out if they are single yo-yos or a continuous row.
ReplyDeletePlease post some directions.

ReplyDeleteThis looks so fun! Please do a tutorial!

ReplyDeleteI bought the book & just wanted to tell you the technique is very clever! I detest sewing so I love the attach-as-you-go aspect. Right now I'm making stashbusting flowers in various colors (center yoyo with 6 around it) using this technique that I will join with white once I have enough to make a blanket. It's going to be very cool!
