NeedleWorkMonday Featured Posts #7
Hello everyone! Welcome to @needleworkmonday’s Featured Posts #7! This is a weekly Curation showcasing the needlework of our very own Steemians! Every Monday we get together to share our love and passion for the needle arts using the #needleworkmonday tag. We enjoy each other’s creations, ideas, patterns, tips and shortcuts.
We strive to bring to you great quality work filled with tutorials and inspiration. Please help us keep these wonderful forms of needle arts alive and thriving by supporting our work.
Here are our featured posts for this week...
NeedleworkMonday: Knitting technique I /Stricktechniken I [Eng/Ger] by @muscara
@muscara has been showing us her lovely knitted socks for quite sometime now. All of the different colors and styles make you want to knit your own. Today she is showing us how to make the ‘afterthought heel’! It is so neat to see the end result of this technique and the design it adds on to the already awesome self-striping sock yarn. Check it out for yourself!
NEEDLEWORKMONDAY AGAIN PEOPLE .... by @brittandjosie
Lately upcycle projects have been pretty popular in the needlework world. We are being inspired, motivated and challenged to make something new out of something old and unused. @brittandjosie presents to us another great idea! She explains how to transform old collar shirts into garments that you can wear during warmer weather under your sweaters. Do you have an old collar shirt that needs transforming?
#needleworkmonday | make like an artist by @shanibeer
@shanibeer has a great love for art. She explains how copying an artists work is one way to know the artist more deeply. It helps you to pay closer attention to detail and technique and to what the artist is expressing.
She was curious to see how one of Picasso’s paintings would translate into crochet. Here she explains her experience with freehand crochet and what she discovers.
Tailoring and Sewing a Blouse From a Pattern by @creationofcare
In this post by @creationofcare she shares with us the steps of how she altered a pattern to fit her needs. You’ll see how tailored thread markings are made and how she bastes her pleats.
Needlework Monday – Transformation of an old sweater by @tali72
Instead of tossing out an old sweater she doesn’t like, @tali72 decides to upcycle it into a cardigan. Follow her on this project as she attempts to make this happen using crochet to help her.

What a great collection of needlework ideas this week. I love the upcycle ideas! I remember making a laptop pouch for my daughter from an old sweater! She still uses it! I'll have to put on my thinking cap, come up with so projects to share since Christmas is on the way! :)
Thank you!! I’m glad you enjoyed the selection!
Oh yes we’d love to see your ideas!!!
Thank you for curating so beautiful posts. This week your curation post was doubly important as the blockchain was dead/problematic on monday. I think not everybody could post in time or find all the needlework posts. I hope the next time the blockchain goes on a strike, it will do it on another day (not monday) 😁😁
It’s a pleasure! Although the curation didn’t make it out until Thursday it’s always better late than never. I also noticed that if you click on the #needleworkmonday tag not all of the posts entered last week are showing. I am especially glad I was able to get the curation post out!
Yes...I agree! No more Monday issues lol!! 😄
Congratulations! This post has been chosen as one of the daily Whistle Stops for The STEEM Engine!
You can see your post's place along the track here: The Daily Whistle Stops, Issue 263 (9/21/18)
Thank you!
Lovely selection of posts, beautifully curated. I have been wanting to learn that style of adding heels to socks (I know them as fish lip heels), and the post adapting patterns will be very useful for the needlework class I am joining in a week or two. Thank you for including me.
Thank you!!! Yes they do resemble fish lips!
It’s a pleasure! Thank you for creating artistic needlework posts for us to enjoy~ ☺️
