thanks for this. Clever way to get the original long knitted tube thicker. I, too, use the sugar N cream cotton yarn, variegated. I use one round ball for each length and then brain three full-ball lengths together; then circle or oval them and stitch by hand. They make great yard "doilies" for under vases and things on tabletops. I don't actually think they'd make very good rugs. I came here to watch the whole playlist as I need some ideas of what else to make with the spool knitting process.

@helenpatchett58103 жыл бұрын
Brilliant video, thank you. How do you finish off the rug? Or join 2 different colours? Thank you
@Needlepointers3 жыл бұрын
Thank you for watching our video on making a spool knitted rug. It is possible to have another color. You would add the color when spool knitting. Attach the new color to the working yarn on the spool knitter with a knot. Keep spool knitting the working yarn in the first color until you reach the knot, and then keep spool knitting once you get to the new color yarn - as you go, make sure that the two loose ends of yarn are buried in the middle of your spool knitting tool as you knit. To finish it, bind off the cord from the spool knitter. Continue finger braiding until you only have a short piece left. Insert this short piece into the last loop. It ended, then just sew the end down.

@Needlepointers Жыл бұрын
Thank you for contacting us with your question. When the rug is the size wanted, cast off the yarn from the spool knitter, place the tail of the cord into the last chain's loop and pull tight to secure. Tuck this tail under the rug and stitch it into place and the rug is done.
