Knitting Needles etc.

I was at my Dr.s office over a year ago and there was a woman in the waiting room doing some type of craft using yarn to make a blanket. She told me what it was called but now I can’t remember.
It looked as though she was weaving, but without a loom or any other type of stand. She had different colored yarns tied off, that she wasn’t finished with. I think she was using a giant plastic needle, or maybe a crochet hook. It was not knitting or crocheting, or macrame.
I have been at the library for over an hour, and on the internet for even longer trying to figure this out, I’m stumped! Please help!

broomstick lace? Did it look very loopy?
nalbinding?

Those are the only two I can think of.

I know that the definition of yarn technically is "thread made of natural or synthetic fibers and used for knitting and weaving," so what do you call the yarn string to clarify it from the ball or skein of yarn? Thanks.

It’s yarn whether it comes from a ball or skein.

a project on weaving ability of air jet yarns on comparsion of ring spun yarn

I am not sure exactly what you want here! Commercial air jet spun yarns?? Those I am not too familiar with unless that is the yarns I am buying, made in Turkey.

Ring spun yarns are very available.

Both are vey weavable but give different results.

Please contact me with more details and I will attempt to help you.

For this pattern do I need to weave in each color at the end of the row or how would you do this?

There are two different ways to do this. The first would be to cut the yarn and weave it into the same color or just carry the "tail" along until you can cover it with the edging. The second would be to carry the color up to it’s next usage and again covering it with the edging. Now the only problem you will have in doing it this way is the skeins of yarn you will have to handle. The choice is yours but in the future check for edging or if it does not need it then cut and weave it into the same color.

I want to knit a hat with straight needles but i’m confuse with how to fasten off the top of the hat. The instruction on the pattern just say cut yarn, thread sewing needle and sew or weave back seam. It doesn’t say anything about the top of the hat. Please help…

basically when you knit a hat on straight needles you are creating a modified triangle shape.

Then you sew up the side of the triangle to make the hat circular.

The easiest way to finish the top of the hat is to stop your decreases with 6 or 8 stitches left, then cut off your yarn leaving plenty of extra.

Take the extra yarn (which is connected to your first stitch on the needle) and weave it through the remaining stitches. Drop each stitch off the needle as you weave the yarn through it.

Then pull the yarn tight,forming the top stitches into a circular shape (kind of like flower petals), then use the rest of the yarn tail to sew up the side of the hat.

i use alot of yarn, most of it is acrylic. but i knit, weave, and crochet. but it does not seem to be going anywhere! i feel like the woman who used the small amount of oil and make lots of bread with it in the bible. i keep knitting and crocheting and weaving but i still have alot of yarn!!!!

HELP!!!!! what else can i do????

Make dolls out of yarn loops they take up a lot of yarn!! It’s the kind where you wrap a whole bunch of yarn around like a cardboard or something and then you tie more yarn around the loops to create a belt and arms and legs. Did you already try visiting the manufacturers’ websites they usually have project ideas.

so I just recently cut my
hair really short and started transitioning from
permed hair to natural as most African American
women have started to do I have been in transition
for about 4 or 5 months now I have been diagnosed with a thyroid disorder..
which makes my hair shed really really badly I’m not going bald! my hair just sheds so to
minimize the shedding I was thinking about doing something called
Yarn Twist I know a lot of the Caucasian sisters might not
be familiar with this but basically all your doing is braiding
Yarn into your own hair like braids………it’s yarn… it’s not weave
or fake hair or anything close to it it’s basically a yarn hair extension
that reinforces your own hair…
it’s more hygienic than synthetic weave and it looks better!!
so my question is is it permissible to wear even though it’s not
hair at all? I’m not trying to find loopholes I just want to know if it’s
permissible to wear extensions even if it’s not hair or fake hair?
I would love some advice inshallah

I have provided a link of the hairstyle it’s
been appropriately distorted
I don’t like those strange colors in they’re lol

I’m not sure if it being yarn would make it not count….In Sahih Al-Bukhair, Vol. 6, Hadith No. 409, it says "Allah’s Messenger has cursed the lady who uses false hair".

I’m not Muslim, I’ve just been studying the religion. I think it’s silly to curse someone for wearing false hair….but it says what it says.

I hope you get your thyroid disorder under control and wish you luck! My sister-in-law has finally gotten her thyroid disorder managed with medication, and she’s feeling a lot better now, and her hair is growing in much better now!

Parallelism can be employed in many different ways. One spin is inversion or chiasmus, in which parallel elements are carefully reversed for emphasis. A famous example comes from President John F. Kennedy’s inaugural address (1961):

Ask not what your country can do for you—ask what you can do for your country.

Inversion often gains power by focusing attention on the ends of sentences, where readers and listeners naturally pause. Kennedy’s example shows this, as does the next example, from a 19th-century religious leader defending his honesty despite his change of religion:

I have changed in many things: in this I have not.

By putting the prepositional phrase in this at the beginning of the second clause, the speaker is able to end on that emphatic final not.

Of the choices, #3 appears to be a sort of inversion, taking conversation, usually casual talk, and inverting it into talk that draws others to God.

i need something to do. but the only thing that i have related to crafts is yarn. does anybody know anything that i could do with this? anything like weaving or sewing or crocheting or something along those lines that i could do with only yarn. other things that i do have would be glue scissors tape a stapler a glue gun colored pencils markers crayons sharpies and pretty much the other usual stuff. Any ideas? Best answer is worth 10 points!

Thankss

Braided rugs for dollhouses. Honest. Take 3 long strands of yarn and braid them tightly so the braid is about 3′ long. Coil it up flat on the table, sewing it together (with needle and thread) as you go. To make an oval, start with a 1" straight piece of the braid, and coil around that. To make a round rug, start wrapping the coil at the very end of the braid.

DETAIL-ORIENTED

What are the hallmarks of a quality dress shirt?

Always trust your instincts. The first test is to make sure the material feels good to the touch. A quality dress shirt should be woven from 250 two-ply cotton with split-yoke detailing (where the yoke is cut in two and sewn up the middle rather than placed in as one piece). Also, make sure the shirt is a single-needle-stitched shirt — more yarn is used, but seams are stronger. Last, look at the components of the shirt. Are the sleeves set into the shirt and neatly sewn? Are the placket and cuffs sewn on separately? And pay attention to the buttons: Mother-of-pearl is preferable to plastic.

They are just explaining what qualities and features to look for in a good piece of clothing.
