Soms moet je gewoon even wat anders doen dan een heel groot project. Dan wil je iets nieuws uitproberen en een ander patroontje wat je NIET 100x hoeft te herhalen... Brei dán een swatch / proeflapje. Een uitstekend moment om te kijken of je het nieuwe patroon wel leuk vind om 100x te herhalen. Om te kijken of het garen bij je naaldmaat past, of dat je toch een maatje groter of kleiner moet pakken. 1. Cuckron shawl (A legacy of Lace) in Jamieson & Smith Supreme fine fleece in "Silver". Combed and handspun, 1ply on 2mm needles. Sometimes you have to do something else than the large shawl you're working on right now. Something quick which you can work on directly and doesn't require a 100 repeats. Make a swatch! A perfect opportunity to see if your yarn matches the needlesize or that you'd better go up or down a size. 2. Esha swatch in Cashmere/merino (70/30) Bart & Francis on 1,5mm needles Het is ook een uitgelezen moment om juist patroontjes te combineren en kijken of het allemaal zo is zoals je bedacht hebt. Vaak neemt het maar een paar meter garen en kun je dus bést met het nieuwe garen breien zonder dat je meteen te kort komt. Of met een restje van een bolletje waar je maar moeilijk afscheid van kon nemen... 3. 1ply jamieson & Smith in optical white; The Second One It is also an excellent moment to combine a set of patterns and to check if it all will work out like you had planned. Often it will take only a few meters of that new yarn you just bought and you will not run short. Or... you can use that little left over from that yarn that you like so much but is already used for something else. 4. 1ply Jamieson & Smith in Fawn; swatch for The Second One. 2mm needles. Of... soms omdat je zulk mooi en vooral zacht garen hebt gekocht, dat je een 'knuffeldoekje' in je broekzak wilt hebben.. Or, perhaps you have bought such soft and gorgeous yarn that you want a little bit to cuddle in your pocket. 5. 2ply 2/28NM 100% Cashmere in Caramel (ColourMart) on 2,5mm needles En soms moet je gewoon even wat garen uitproberen op extra fijne naalden om te zien hoe groot het zou worden als je er géén lace mee breit. And once in a while you just want to try some yarn on extra fine needles to see how it will look when you're nót knitting lace with it. 6. Baby sock in estonian wool on 1.5mm needles. Even kijken of de rand die je bedacht hebt, wel de bocht om wil en hoe vaak je moet 'Wrap & Turn' toepassen om het mooi te maken. Making an attempt to turn a corner to see how many times you need to 'Wrap & Turn' to get it right. 7. ColourMart 2/48 NM Extra Fine Merino in Bali Peach and Mocha En als laatste natuurlijk om te zien of je met het garen wat je in huis hebt, toch alvast een gloednieuw patroon uit kunt proberen. Zonder dat je meteen nieuwe voorraad hoeft aan te schaffen. Kun je meteen je 'eigen' kleuren toepassen 8. "Northdale" by G. Johnston Jamieson's of Shetland (spindrift) (top) and Jamieson & Smith 2ply lace And, last but not least; taking yarn from your stash to immediately try out a brand new design. Without emptying your bank account. And slide in your own colour combinations. Or read this post: Swatch Conclusie: swatchen is GEEN tijdverspilling maar uiteindelijk een hele leuke bezigheid. Conclusion: swatching is NOT a waste of time, but a useful and pretty thing to do.

I use my outdoor clothesline a lot and when my store bought peg bag finally fell apart I decided to crochet one. It seemed natural to make little clothes for the front of it so I ended up designing some that are very close to what I wore when I was around 20 years old. Today I'm posting the pattern for the bag. You can find the free patterns for the clothes here. Bag: Yarn: Bernat cottontots, colour sweet cream. Hook:4.5mm Finished dimensions 12x20 (w x h) Beginner level You will make a large rectangle( with an opening) which you will later fold in half. The width of the rectangle is the width of your hanger plus 1 inch and the length is 2 times the height you want your bag to be. I made my rectangle 12 inches by 20 inches. I placed my opening 16 inches from the bottom of my rectangle. For my yarn and hook size: Make 53 chains. Rows 1 & up: sc each row to end, ch 1 turn. (52 st) Continue crocheting rows until you have made a length of 16 in. You will then make a row that has an opening for the pegs as follows: Sc in the next 15 st, make 22 chains, skip the next 22 st, sc in the last 15 st.(52 st) (Basically you want to divide your width into 3 parts ...2 sides and an opening. First decide how wide you want your opening ..this will be the # of chains that you make and # of skipped stitches. The remaining # of stitches will be your two sides.) Continue again with single crocheting each row for another 4 inches, Cast off. Lining: You don't have to line it but I wanted to stop my bag from getting stretched out too much. I took the easy path and simply cut a piece of fabric that was 11 inches wide by 16 inches tall. Pin along outer edges and sew all edges using the same colour of thread as the bag itself. Now is the time to sew on any embellishments. I simply used thread to sew mine on. Next fold the bag lengthwise and either sc or slip stitch the side seams closed. Next insert the hanger through the top opening and crochet that closed leaving the hook part sticking out. Add your clothes pegs and you're good to go!
