COFFEE AND CROCHET WITH SARA (26) Let's Talk About Velvet Yarns | Posh Pooch Designs

COFFEE AND CROCHET WITH SARA (26) Let's Talk About Velvet Yarns
By Sara Sach of   Posh Pooch Designs 


Velvet Yarns
Working with velvet yarns can be a little tricky to
 work with, but the time spent is well worth the results.

Here Are  Few Hints To Make It Easier.

1. Choose a larger project.  
Do not try to make little intricate designs.
Most of the color variegation can not be seen 
with a small project. I suggest scarves, throws, 
blankets, cowls and pillows.


2. Choose a project with very little detail. 
Most intricate detail is lost because of the 
fuzziness of the yarn.


3. Crochet loosely - It is better to be too lose then 
too tight with this type of yarn. It is hard to find the
stitches if you crochet too tightly, and just as hard
 to work with if you stitch tightly. 
So relax and loosen up a bit.


4. Don't let the yarn frustrate you. 
Make a practice swatch, and study how to find your
stitches, and where to place your hook.

If you are struggling with it, set it down
and come back later.

Some really great things about Velvet Yarns_

It has a beautiful feel and makes very luxurious items.

It has great drape and flows nicely for a scarf or shawl.

Once it is crocheted or knitted it becomes more stretchy.

The colors a rich and beautiful.
