Craft Bits / Caroles Crafts

Hi Liz, I have made them out of wool, machine knitting them rather than corcheting them as I needed them quickly. I am only crocheting the front half circles as they won't take long. I take it by the dowels you meant to weight the cap rather than shape it to the arm? Hope you can understand my ...

Hi, I tried to post this the other day, but can't find! I have made arm caps for my 3 piece suite but as the arms, on the outside, slope inwards, I am having difficulty making the arms mould to the arms. 3 piece suite is leather, so can't attach anything. Tying hasn't worked. Can anyone make any ...

Hi Janet, that's no problem with the photocopies. I will. of course reimburse you. My email is ******* (edited by Admin). If you want to email me I can then scan and send a bond pattern before we continue. thanks very very much.

Hi Janet, that's brilliant! Thanks very much for looking. I don't expect you to part with it at all! I would like copies of the main bits if that's ok - setting up, what the different positions on the carriage are for, as well inc, dec as I'm not sure if these will be the same as in the Bond ...

Hi, thanks Ros, for your help. I have rechecked, it is model KX 390. It's a shame I can't figure it out, as I don't want to throw it away.

Does anyone know where I can get instructions for the Brother Knitting machine KX 390 , preferably free or a copy off someone, who is kind enough to share? I was given the machine but it had no instructions. I have tried copying the set up I follow for my old Knitting machine (a Bond), but the ...

Hi Ros, how you doing? How's the beading coming on? I've not tried this yet! Been busy on the old knitting machine, making a jacket for winter! Will start a cotton crochet top this week, hopefully, once I've found a pattern or inspiration!

Hi, just saying hello to all the members. I like crochet and all sorts of crafts. What does everyone else like to do?
