How to sew a knitting needle case - by ARNE & CARLOS

[@mtierney1120]

In the U.S. it’s called “interfacing,” if iron-on, then “fusible interfacing”.🌻

[@ozgirl45]

This is so entertaining to watch! The mix of fabric patterns and colours is lovely. And I think the word you are looking for in English is “interfacing”.

[@benjisprincess304]

Carlos! Stop talkingYou are impeding Arne’s progress. He must continue on his cleaning mission/2023 resolution. You two are so much fun. Thanks for the tutorial.

[@ARNECARLOS]

You are welcome!

[@peterwhite9261]

This is a great idea for leftover fabrics.

[@lafrileuse4459]

I think that Vlieseline is the brand of a French interfacing. the correct French word is "entoilage".

[@annanicholson6925]

I love how Freya got in the last word!

[@zlatahume3134]

I am not doing any hand work at the moment but watching your channel is a must and now I also follow homely house too even that I do not do quilting. But I share your love for thrift shops. 30 years ago the English person would not be seen dead in there. It was only people who had very little money or Eastern European like me. Now you cannot swing a cat in there for people. At least the charities are the winners❤😊

[@ingridibBerland]

Thank you for sharing. It is a nice way to reuse old embroidery, or embroider new smaller numbers for your knittingneedles

[@ARNECARLOS]

Yes, it is a perfect way to preserve memories

[@craftyazshabbyshacjude3297]

So useful and quick to make. Who doesn’t have stash fabric enough to sew hundreds?

[@ARNECARLOS]

True!

[@cristinaslaughter6025]

❤ A beautiful way to stay organized and use up scraps. So good to hear Freja - she approves of this activity! Everything we use, everyday, can be beautiful. Enhance each day with beautiful handmade objects. ❤

[@lovecraftwithkatherine]

Thank you for your videos. I don't have anyone to craft with, so It's nice to sit with you and do crafts

[@joantrainor6584]

I like your emphasis on hand sewing, which I find most satisfying. 😉

[@ARNECARLOS]

🫶🏻

[@aliciaquintano6506]

The crazy quilt design is so wonderful! I love knowing that you enjoy hand sewing. I am really out of practice but I think this is the inspiration for me to just dive in. :)

[@karinlightner775]

This will be such a fun project for me to do with my granddaughter, who had me teach her to knit and to crochet, and now wants to learn to use the sewing machine. I think this will be a GREAT project for that -- AND we can get her knitting needles and crochet hooks organized at last (no more "Where did I put those?" - 😉Thanks, Arne and Carlos, for this wonderful design!

[@ARNECARLOS]

It is a great communal project.

[@elaineenstone6834]

Giving much insight to many subjects. Thank you, and please continue sharing your lives with all your viewers.😊

[@cheryldeville9211]

I love your needle cases. I've got a couple of upholstery sample books with swatches that'll make wonderful needle cases. (Plus a ton of regular fabrics too 😮😂)

[@kathleenallan321]

This is so great! Fabric leftovers are dancing in my head. Thanks!!

I have to love that you're doing this outside

You’ve inspired me. I’ve got my pattern now and am looking forward to starting. Thanks

Thank you for sharing your patterns, you are quite generous. I have really enjoyed this video and the way that you have combined those beautiful fabric patterns. Laurie

[@maryalgar8779]

Very nice idea. Arne is so precise and I appreciate that.

[@jobnpauls7421]

Great inspiration!! I have the pattern and my crossstitch fabric ready for numbers. I’m finishing a sewing needle case now with your new bird Christmas ball pattern as the crissstitch on the front, then it’s on to knitting needle cases and a drawing pencil case. Thank you so much for all your wonderful videos, patterns and great humor. I never miss an episode!! Have a wonderful day!❤

[@jacquelinesleegers6839]

A tip: if you are afraid to make your buttonhole to long by cutting, you can put pins on both ends. You put them transversal. Your knife or scissors will stop when it reaches the pin.

[@ARNECARLOS]

That is a great tip!

[@selinab8532]

love this idea, have so many needles , it's not funny.......... thanx for sharing

[@ARNECARLOS]

You are welcome!

[@tamelaschandel1528]

I really need to make these. My needles are everywhere.

[@jenniferjohnson9335]

Thank you for sharing your process on the quilted needle holders. It's genius, really. So glad Freja is making her presence known! She is lovely--Moose-moose!

[@wrongwayconway]

I have the same sewing needle case! And I love how neat your wood is stacked.

[@misss.o.j.]

This made me want to use my fabrics creatively! Elegant, thoughtful, beautiful crafts.❤❤❤TY both🥰🥰🥰

[@christinenewell2679]

I think you were looking for ‘interfacing’, ‘tailors chalk’ and ‘wadding or batting’…..2 different things but I think you have used wadding on these lovely needle cases. I love this idea and am definitely going to make a couple of these but adapt them for crochet hooks and also various sewing needle. Thanks for a cute video, love the sewing ones.

[@daisyrea7219]

fabulous video. Enjoyed the hand sewing button hole.

[@blasebaker]

Hi guys. I am so going to make some of these. I have a lot of needles. Can’t wait to be organized. ❤

Great tuto ! Thanks !

[@ARNECARLOS]

You are welcome!

[@rebeccabenjamin3232]

Thank you for this inspirational project! I made my first case this weekend. I did find that when I put all the needles in, they made the case narrower so when I closed it, the flaps were wider than the case. Did anyone else have this happen? I will make my flaps narrower next time I think. Thanks again for a fun project!

[@prudenceadele6169]

I'm ready and rearing to go to make some beautiful needle pouches thank you guys for your beautiful inspiring ides. Cheers from Australia Prue

[@marshabanks665]

This is a wonderful way to organize my needles. I will have to get busy organizing my sewing room! I think the stuff you're referring to is interfacing.

[@ARNECARLOS]

[@kathysmith5411]

Beautiful project ...thank you both so much for sharing ❤

[@chrisdonohoo]

Glad for a reason to set up my sewing machine! Fun project, looking to use up my fabric "stash!"

[@marilyn9155]

The case is beautiful and so easily made thanks to your detailed instruction. Have a good day .❤️

[@stephsmith5969]

I'm definitely going to be making some of these needle cases. They are desperately needed as my needles are completely undisciplined and the circular ones even tangle themselves up with each other. Agree with you totally about had sewing, very relaxing, almost as good as knitting. It's good to slow down. I recently bought a kettle to go on the gas hob to boil water instead of using the electric one - to save on energy costs. You have to put it on a good five minutes before you need the boiling water but it's so nostalgic to wait like that, to hear it humming and then rising to a whistle when the water is boiled. Doesn't it just do us a power of good to slow down.

[@ARNECARLOS]

We love kettles, no rush

[@catnapper3923]

Love these, they are so pretty. Thank you.

[@stefanieblihovde9673]

Thank you for this tutorial! I have the pattern and now just need to take some time to go through my fabric stash. This will be a great way to use up some fabric I inherited from my grandmother and my mother

[@deborahstuart4071]

By the way, I watched your " how we met" video today and laughed all over again at it. I wonder though whether you would ever show us some of your fashion work - either pictures or pieces. It would be so interesting to see what you did before the KZbin life we now know you from...

[@ARNECARLOS]

We have done a few episodes on that, here is a link: kzbin.info/aero/PLElv_tSbHW3qn8RKkX2Zu8Kug2mKGcjVo

[@emmaavauntie]

I love the versatility of this project, as I have plans to make cases for coloured pencils and paint brushes. ( I am sadly, one of those members of Sit and Knit for a Bit that neither knits or crochets.)

[@Sophie-k9y]

Hi Arne and Carlos It’s called fusible interfacing in English The reason I know that my mother use to be haute couturier God bless her soul

[@maryanncasale87]

Such great ideas! Thank you! ❤

Que lindo todas la manualidades que hacen felicitaciones 🇺🇾

[@Someone-mi4vt]

Hi Arne and Carlos. I hope you’re well. I was just wondering if maybe you could show your storage of wool and fabric and other craft materials, only im having trouble keeping all of my things organised and wondered if maybe you had any tips and tricks? Thanks, and as always, love your videos. ❤🧶

[@ARNECARLOS]

Thank you for the tutorial suggestion!

[@candygrubisic]

I need to use a bunch of my scraps up as well so of course this project lends itself well to doing just that. The ribbon for stitch markers is a great idea! I "assume" the English term was most likely interfacing for the pocket flaps.

[@ARNECARLOS]

The perfect project!

[@cbjones2212]

Vliesolene is also known as Vliesofix here in Australia but I think it's a brand name. I know Vliesofix as fusible interfacing.

[@joanndean6444]

Love this project! But I think destashing is a myth...every time I use up extra fabric and yarn, even more miraculously seems to arrive in the mail!!😂😂

As is often mentioned by quilters and sewers alike: The one who dies with the most fabric stash wins!"😉

[@joanndean6444]

@@karinlightner775 I win!!😂

[@ARNECARLOS]

At least we try!

[@ClaireWhoMakesThings]

We say iron on interfacing boys. Vilene is a Brand name, but in the UK the Vilene brand changed it’s name to Vlieseline. Confusing for us UK so never mind you guys. Uk say ‘wadding’ for inside a quilt, USA say ‘Batting’ however us quilters understand but it’s confusing for new quilters. I have your pattern boys. This video was beautiful to watch.

[@ARNECARLOS]

Thank you Claire!

[@karentoynton8948]

Very nice boys xx

[@deborahstuart4071]

I love these cases and wish I could think of a way to adapt them to paintbrushes. I have never quite understood why you need quite so many needles of the same size? My knitting stash (generally) is one long pair, one short pair of straight needles, similarly maybe 3 lengths of double ended needles and 3 lengths of circular ones. So I need to figure out you GORGEOUS cases to accommodate this ...

[@ARNECARLOS]

If you like to have many projects going on at the same time it is handy!

[@midwestkatie4]

Just what I needed!

[@karinlightner775]

Who makes that neat chalk marker? Looks like it works so well.

[@yettaoshea8869]

That is a Prym chalk wheel liner mouse. If you are in US Clover makes something similar-chaco liner

Hello Freya.

[@yogalinemeunier799]

In English is « interlining ». Thank you for your mini class

[@vickidenouden3480]

I love these! Could you please design one to organize circular needles? I hope you don’t cover all that beautiful beadwork/stitching (I can’t tell) of the bird motif. I’ve been trying to sew garments this summer without much success so I think it will be good to take a break from that and sew small projects for a while.

[@ARNECARLOS]

The pattern on our website includes the option for circular needles too! go to arnecarlos.com to download it 😊

[@dragonknitter]

I have to ask, is the batting absolutely necessary?

[@cbjones2212]

I had a commercial needlecase that didn't have any batting and found that the needles moved around quite a bit. Perhaps the batting helps with that? I'm planning to make one but using a piece of woven wool fabric instead of batting.

[@ARNECARLOS]

We think so yes

[@joycerickman8830]

Innerfacing, inside facing

Fusing, interfacing

[@dorotheewanner9739]

[@marynimocks6791]

And if the interfacing can be “fused” to the fabric with an iron, we called it fusible interfacing or interlining.
