Welcome to my site! We have the Stitch Needlepoint information that you are looking for.
how can i stitch the baby's name into the blanket that i am knitting?
its a knitted blanket. i plan on stitching a silk-like edge to the ends, and having one side with the baby's name on it. How can i stitch the name on, while still allowing it to look elegant and cute??
something with needlepoint maybe??
note: i do not know how to crochet. only needlepoint, knit, and sew
thanks!!!
So the silk-like edge would be woven fabric that you sew on? In that case, embroidering the name in chain stitch or another simple stitch would look nice.
An alternative is to stencil it on. You can buy the stencil ink/paint and stencils in a craft store.
Or you can print the name on that special fabric printer paper you can buy, choosing an elegant font, and then iron the name onto the fabric.
If you want the name embroidered on the knitting itself, try duplicate stitch - you stitch this on with an embroidery needle after you've finished knitting, but it looks as though you've knitted the name into the fabric itself. Here's an explanation: http://www.thedietdiary.com/blog/lucia/259

Now, in response to many requests to produce another comprehensive book, they have created Glorafilia: The Ultimate Needlepoint Collection. There is something for every taste in this book, whether an ornament that is quick to stitch or a carpet that will become a family heirloom.

Needlepoint: A Foundation Course $7.11 From working the basic stitches successfully to using them to the greatest effect, this comprehensive foundation course shows you how to become an accomplished artisan with the needle. Master the four elementary stitches -- the continental tent, basketweave, cross stitch, and straight stitch -- while you complete six starting projects. Make a pretty flower needlecase or a William Morris-style Pincushion; a Flower and Fish Pincushion Chair Seat; a Carnation Repeat-Patterned Glasses Case: a 5 Elephants Pencil Box Lid; and a Maple Leaf cushion Panel.

Use them to create a picture frame, a lug with decorative panels, and a Victorian car along with a seat cover, cushion panel, cushion, and sewing box lid. Once you have these techniques down pat, experiment and really use your creativity. Try new ideas, or enhance the designs of others. Play with contrasts in color and texture. Then go to the next logical step: designing your own stylish needlepoint that will be the envy of your fellow needlepointers. By the time you've finished this complete course, you'll feel like the very best professionals -- and have the skills to prove it. |
