You're a gem Sheila, thankyou. I really need this. I'm one of those people terrible at sewing up, the reason my mum always did it. You have given me confidence to begin knitting again.
Hi Sheila that’s exactly how I sew up garments my mum also was a tailored with manclarks making army uniform s so must be tricks of the trade I enjoy doin the seaming
Sheila, people pay over $195.00 to take a professional finishing technique course through The Knitting Guild Association. Thank you so much for teaching us how to become Master Hand Knitters! :)
Really enjoyed this vlog Sheila. You are a very good teacher. I do back stitch, but I have never pinned garments for stitching. You have made the making up look very easy. I'm afraid I'm one of those who knits quite neatly , but spoils things with shoddy making up. You are so right, this just spoils all that hard work. I have learnt my lesson! 🤞
Very cute cardi. I've never heard anyone say that their father taught them how to knit. You are fortunate to have been born into a very crafty family. TFS! ❤
Hiya Shelia luv this sewing up is invaluable to me I work hard to do a nice garment then as a few people have said spoil it with untidy sewing together , thank you so much for showing us very precisely a really good sewing up class an I was one of your pupils 😃 I’m so happy to be shown how to do it so nicely done . Just what I needed hope ur relaxing I’m behind with your videos Sunday today for me hope ur relaxing if ever possible for you , I’m like u find it impossible not to be trying to catch up with things as my mum bless her used to say like a flea in a colander don’t know which hole to come out off , I know it does sound strange my mum would be 106 where she alive one of the old school could turn her hand to anything as they had to do any we av followed in their footsteps, find it hard not to be busy doing something have a nice day 💕💕😘
Oh my goodness thank you Sheila you know how I hate sewing up I have a baby cardigan to sew up and I i over sew I won’t anymore I’ll follow your guidance and I’m going to message a lady I work with and tell her to watch thank you x
A very helpful video, Sheila. I've knitted for years but often spoil my work with the sewing up being poorly done. Im going to try harder with this. A sweet little girl's cardigan for the summer 😊
Thank you for all the handy tips, very useful. I love the short sleeves on the cardigan. This would make a lovely adult pattern. I like to wear short sleeve cardigans over dresses in the summer. Will you be doing any adult sizes? If not would you be able to explain how you work out the correct number of stitches for the sleeve cuffs and length of sleeves.
Yes Amanda, i weighed the back that told me there wasn't going to be enough for long sleeves, don't know what made me do that size when i had an idea there wasn't enough wool for that size 😂
