Stitchopedia Summer 2020 is my way to make sure you have a wonderful directory of tutorials to learn or increase your needle art skills. The Stitchopedia can be found in the menu at the top of this site. Over the summer I will be filling in gaps to make sure you can learn at least the basics of several needle arts.

The Simple Knit Wrap Bracelet video tutorial will aid you in creating this fashionable accessory. It’s an easy pattern and the video makes it easier. Just cast on and bind off, then add on a button and sew a loop. Make a bunch of these with that cool button collection so many carfters have and then you’ll have a stash of gifts for when you are in need.
Knit a square then make a bunny: Bunny Squared! It really is that easy. You can use nearly any solid knit or crochet square, and I’ve even included a pattern for a basic knit garter stitch square in this tutorial to get you started. This creative craft is a great way to turn your gauge swatches into something fun.
Week 15 of Crafty Time with Jessie was the last full week of videos. Moving forward videos will be on Thursdays only, still at 11 am eastern time. This is all part of transitioning to our new-new normal. I don’t want to go back to what we were, I want us to be even better! So keep making beautiful creations and spreading kindness.
You can find general info, links to all the weeks as we progress, and the current week’s videos HERE.

Pom poms are quick and easy to make with the Clover pom pom maker. Here’s a written, photo, and video tutorial to show you how. I’ve tried various ways of making pom poms, and this one happens to be my favorite! These little pom pom makers are most definitely worth the price.

Here’s a simple knit wrap bracelet that can be made with just casting one, binding off, and a couple stitches with a yarn needle. Not only is this a cute and quick handmade gift, but it’s also a great project for someone just learning to knit. It’s so nice to be able to complete a creation early on when learning a new skill. You can also use this as a choker or necklace.
Week 14 of Crafty Time with Jessie demonstrated how the only thing constant is change. Things got a little heavy on Wednesday, but sometimes that’s part of life and change and growing. On a lighter note, there was cool embroidery and new crochet and general fiber fun!

Bind Off Purl Wise is simply the same as the Bind Off Knit Wise, but using purls in place of the knits. It’s a little fiddly at first, but still pretty easy. I don’t use this bind off too often, however it’s good to know for when it’s needed. Here are photos, instructions, and a video to help you learn how to bind off purl wise.
