Yarn doesn't have to be boring!

Bernat glow in the dark yarn!! Glow in the dark yarn...think of the possibilities! :)

70% Acrylic / 30% Polyester
Machine washable & dryable
40g / 1.4oz. & 66m / 72yds


. It reminds me of Bernat Satin or Red Heart Soft - silky shiny acrylic yarn.

It comes in pure white and baby pastels. In the pink, yellow, green, blue, and lilac, you can see the white glowing ply twisted around the color plies.

Threading a needle should be easy

Threading a needle should be easy. All you need to do is take the yarn and get it through the eye of the needle, but actually getting the yarn (or anything else you might be using) through the eye of the needle can be a bit challenging.

 It seems to have gotten more challenging as my eyes have aged and my depth perception has changed 
i faced with the task of threading yarn through a needle. Getting regular sewing thread through the tiny eye of a needle can be hard enough, but when you’re dealing with big, fat yarn, it’s an extra challenge. Fortunately, I had a trick up my sleeve that really helped.


Of course you’ll want to start with a large eyed needle so that the yarn will actually fit. Then cut a tiny slip of paper  no wider than the eye of the needle. Follow steps Try it u  might be in WOW!!
what I do is fold a piece of paper in half

cut it so it's just large enough to fit through the eye of the needle

put the end of the yarn on the inside of the fold




and push the paper through the eye of the needle




Wow No more Fighting with the Yarn Good Luck if u try it let us know how you like our Tip 
We ask if u tell anyone how this is done pls link it back to us thank you

What would you Name this sweater ?

Hello all where to Start?  We Less then a Mo ago i got to go to see my brother up in Upper Michigan,


My hubby and I had a Blast we got to go Snowmobiling for my first time + my first time driving one! (Oh boy) I did had fun, Mind you I haven't seen my brother sent I was 15. I got to see him for 3 hours back in April, I think it was. He stop at the house to meet my kids, he never met them so that was fun, and i got to meet his lil girl.

When we were up north I got to spend time with his lil girl and i fell in love with her. When  I got home and was looking through the internet to make something for her and I love making baby dresses and she around 4 years old in a T-4 T-5 so wasn't sure if those would work,

i found this picture and loved it, but i\I couldn't understand the *Pat* because I have a hard time understanding them and ~B~ couldn't help me with it bc she didn't understand it. so i  just did by looking  and made my own, my way...

I found a Picture of a flower bc i didn't know how to make these flowers on the  top picture Sq flowers as i couldn't read the *pat* i seen these i thought it was Cool.
i didnt know how to do this  from working from the neck down to make these stand right - asked a few groups how did they knew stich but not how to do what i needed so i was playing around with a pop-corn stich and single and a double and the pic bewlow is what i came up with - its more 3-D then the top and i add it to the arms as u will see in pictures below - i think it turned out nice and think it will be a good border for blankets i will be making the rose again - 

 Here mine and what i came up with  Pls leave comment What you think about love to hear ur feed back

 On the arms 
























Its still not done * In picture is my grand baby* She a T-5 So i think this will work for his baby Girl. I cant wait to go back up there and give it to her but not sure yet to send it or wait until we go back up north? *Thinking*


 What would you Name this sweater ?

 I hope you Like the work! i worked hard on it
