Engineering knits is a place for people who enjoy all kinds of vintage and antique crafts - from sewing to knitting, crochet to embroidery I like to try it all. I definitely have a preference for historical fibre crafts, and it is my dream to one day make an entire outfit from sheep to sweater. I hope you enjoy watching me and my favorite companion, Nutella, struggle through some fascinating projects!

I just cam here for the reverse engineering but then it turned into STORY TIME?? Okay, instant subscribing, that was so cute and wholesome and took me back to my childhood of my mom reading to me. What a lovely idea instead of boring montages and music.

In the version of Rumpelstiltskin my fairytale book had him angrily stamp his foot so hard that the earth opened up and he fell into hell! Flying away on a soup spoon is much more PG! 😂

@jessyup1368 6 месяцев назад

Same! Was looking for this ending :)

@mimi_user 6 месяцев назад

the soup spoon is definitely the pg version of Rumpelstilzchen! when i was a kid in the 2000s in Germany, he ripped himself apart in anger. "Das hat Dir der Teufel gesagt!" (the devil told you that!)

@allclairesbears 6 месяцев назад

That's the version I had in the 1980s also😅

For me he stomps so hard on the floor he creates a pit and fall in it… 😂

@ClaudiaArnold 6 месяцев назад

@@stephanemamiHe stomps the floor so hard his leg drops in to the groin. Then he grabs his other leg and tears himself apart. *Then* in an extended version, during the baptism of the child three old women appear, claiming to be aunts, but actually fairies bent on protecting the miller's daughter from the king. Each of them is disfigured in a specific way brought about by spinning: Coarse fingers, a saggy lower lip from constantly licking her fingers and a huge, flat right foot from pedaling the spinning wheel. Seeing them, the king forbids his wife to ever do any spinning again. 😂

@IISheireenII 6 месяцев назад

@@ClaudiaArnold you are mixing two fairy tales together. I know the one with the three spinning aunts as the reason a king forbids his wife from ever spinning again as a seperate tale. There are some similar elements but in my Grimms tales book they are seperate and have differences. The one with the spinnster aunts has no spinning straw into gold, she just claimed to be an incredible spinner even though she can't spin and there is no Rumplestiltskin, the aunts help her from the start. Also no baby as payment.

I'm so impressed not only by how much knitting you get done, but also that you manage to edit all these videos to upload them all during Craftmas 😭 serious dedication!!

I love how this is coming out. How wonderful to hear a fairy tale during this episode as well! I am working on some hand quilting as I watch these videos. Super excited to see how this ski sweater comes out- so far its beautiful!

I might need to start knitting inspired by existing garments. Very inspiring.

@angelinacrafts5385 6 месяцев назад

So fun how in the pink the design reads star flowers and in the cream they are snowflakes at first glance.

@konnyf13 6 месяцев назад

The colors you picked for the sweater are so beautiful! This will be such a pretty sweater! My heart was melting seeing you & Nutella napping! 🐶🥰

@colettemoolman4410 6 месяцев назад

Oh my goodness, what terrible men the poor girl in the story had to deal with. A braggert for a father, a douchebag of a king/husband and a opportunistic extortionist of an imp. The new sweater colourwork is so beautiful.

@geministargazer9830 6 месяцев назад

Love the colour combo for the remake. I love a dark green and red together

@TheCripeCrew 6 месяцев назад

I’ve been rewatching Once Upon A Time while knitting so your story of Rumplestiltskin was perfect timing!

@olgakorn53 6 месяцев назад

@ivywells2909 6 месяцев назад

Your fairy tale reading was charming! ❤

@kristalburns3490 6 месяцев назад

I think the red/pink/orange in the original sweater is neon red. I dont know how one would get that color but I have ideas.

@pippaseaspirit4415 6 месяцев назад

I like your colour combination much better than the original 😻😻😻

@knittingwithbetty 6 месяцев назад

Yes please to the history of Scandinavian ski sweaters! One of my fav movies is The Hero’s of Telemark purely for the 60s-tastic knitwear Kirk Douglas and his lady friend wears ❤❤️

@thizizliz 6 месяцев назад

Loving the new color combo! But you are right - the coral does look good on you. Great save with the duplicate stitching - going to be beautiful.

@moonbasket 6 месяцев назад

I know you don’t want another knitting machine, but the LK 150 is really handy for those miles of plain stockinette at typical hand knit gauges.

Have you decided on the types of pieces you’re making for the set? I think a pair of traditional Selbu mittens with the rose motif on the top of the hand would be so pretty!

Such a well made presentation! I have a vintage (‘60’s?) Brunswick kit with similar orange colored wool. Mine looks like a sport wt. It’s Brunswick100% Pure Shetland Wool color 37 Coral. Interesting you can tell it’s wool yarn under a microscope. I was using bleach test.

Curious why you decided not to try knitting the lower sections in the round? Loving the series.

@kray3883 6 месяцев назад

IDK if this was her reason, but in general the side seams help stabilize and prevent sagging, so they aren't just for attaching two pieces of fabric together.

@Historyofstitchery 6 месяцев назад

I don’t know if that queen got a happy ending. She’s still stuck with a guy who threatened to kill her three separate times over something someone else said. I mean she gets to keep her baby, at least. She’s rich, too. I guess you need to take wins as they come.
