NEW FACE BOOK PAGE

I have a new Face Book Page. I just set it up, so there's not much on it yet, but I hope you will check it out and become a fan. I plan to post on it much the same as I do here on the blog, but I figure almost everyone is on, or will be on, Face Book so I might as well join the revolution. See you there.

It’s Knitting tips by Judy.

NEW FREE VIDEO- 2 color TRIANGLE

I've made a FREE VIDEO showing how I did the 2 color triangle stitch that I used in my Multi Stitch Baby Blanket. This stitch is very easy and fun to do. It can be used as a detail on a sweater or bag and I'm sure you've seen, or even made, washcloths done with this stitch. You could even do a whole scarf or blanket using this stitch in different color combinations. Ohhh, good idea. I just thought of it! I hope you'll try it and let me know what you do with it.
Happy knitting!

BROWN SHEEP LAMB'S PRIDE YARN

Many of you have written to ask me what is the red yarn I often use in my video demonstrations. It's Brown Sheep Lamb's Pride Worsted and I LOVE IT! I went through my stash and found a few skeins that I decided since I live in California and don't use that much wool I could part with. They are listed on Ravelry. I'm Judytopaz there. The photo doesn't show the colors real well, but they are Midnight Green, Lemon Drop, Aubergine, Sunset Gold,Blue Magic and Bulldog Blue. If you're interested I'm selling them for $6 each. You can get one or all of them. Check out my Ravelry page. I have lots of yarn for sale. e-mail me with any questions about any of them.
Happy knitting!

STOCKINETTE STITCH

Somehow I forgot to put the STOCKINETTE STITCH VIDEO on Youtube. It's on the web-site,
but now you can check it out on Youtube too. STOCKINETTE STITCH is the most common stitch in knitting. It's simply knit one row, turn the work and purl back the next row. It is NOT GOOD for scarves though because it always rolls into itself. Try other stitches that are the same on both sides for scarves. Look at all the different stitch videos I have for ideas.
Happy Knitting!

NEW FREE VIDEO - NEEDLES

So many of you write to ask me about the difference in Knitting Needles so here's my new video. I talk about the different materials, lengths, shape. Pretty much everything I know about them. Hope your questions will be answered with this FREE VIDEO. It's listed under THE BASICS on the web-site. Check it out and keep looking for more. They're coming as fast as I can get them made. Usually about once a week.
Don't forget to look for my yarn for sale on Ravelry too. I'm judytopaz there.
Happy Knitting!

NEW VIDEO FOR SALE

I get a lot of requests to make more videos for sale. I have just made a new one that is a step by step demonstration of how to MAKE A SCARF USING THE LIKE LACE STITCH. I used two colors of wool. Most of the scarf is one color, but I added garter stitch stripes with a second color just to make it a little more interesting. The DVD comes with a bonus of my video HOW TO MAKE FRINGE included in the price. You can order it by itself or with the yarn I used. To check out the DVD go to my web-site and click on either VIDEOS or FOR SALE. You can also look for an introduction to the DVD on Youtube shortly and then on my web-site soon.

Thanks again to all who have been buying my videos. I'm so glad you like them and I will continue to try to make some more that are different from the free videos in the future.

Keep those e-mails coming and keep looking for more new FREE Videos.

MULTI STITCH BLANKET VIDEO

I got so many e-mails asking me how I made that blanket so I made a little video explanation. I'm excited by all the notes and comments and thrilled that so many knitters all over the WORLD are making it, or their version of it. That's the message here....do your own thing and make it a one of a kind, your kind!
On another subject, I've put a lot of new yarn for sale on Ravelry. Look for me there. I'm judytopaz.
