I've been searching for different ways to make a kirtle and for one that I like. 16th century to 14th century. And there are many dress diaries already on blog spot and other places on how to make kirtle diaries. Which in the end I may end up doing too, when there is time. This month is Retail Crazy Holidays! I'm one that works near the front of the Hurlburt BX inside entrance. Jewelry counter in fact.

Weaving this year

Purple Inkle weave completed last month. Sold to a good friend in SCA. Found the pattern online and can't remember which one it was.  My first attempt to make trim with the Pick Up Technique from watching a video on youtube.   This is my current project for a greek key using pick up.

My latest and cute project I found in a book called Super Cute by Annie Obaachan. Arigato! I don't take credit for her works, only if I make up my own little characters. Here are the instructions on how to make your own puppy using Obaa's template. Included are a few pages on techniques, how to's and instructions. Happy crocheting! http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v290/jenni76/Super%20cute%20animals/
