Episode 1 EleventyOne Things I did while prepping for Bendigo
Come behind the scenes with me in the studio as I worked through the last few days of prep for the Australian Sheep and Wool Show in Bendigo (2024).
My newest vlog style video shows the highs and lows I experienced, the challenges and solutions and a bit of a dive into all the things that go into the last minute preparations for a big show like Bendigo.
I hope you like this raw, unscripted style of my vlog... I honestly didn't plan any of it, I just turned the camera on a few times and tried to show what I was doing in the studio.
Please leave a comment if there's something you'd like to know more about from the video, or if you want to see other BTS things from my studio (or even if you j...

Succulent Garden Shawl Cast On Tutorial

This tutorial is to help you cast on your Succulent Garden Shawl knitting project. Its a modified Turkish Cast on, with a provisional cast on element so you can get a seamless icord edging at the cast on point of your shawl. I looked everywhere to find an existing method for how to create this, and I just couldn't find it anywhere, so I developed the technique combination for this design. Enjoy...

Hand Woven Flowers (A Stop Motion Movie)
Просмотров 774 года назад
I completed this little creative project as a palate cleanser between some big knits. I love weaving, it's such a calm creative process and when these little flowers were complete, they told me that they were desperate to be a stop motion animation! If anyone's interested, I also LOVE stop motion (though I'm no expert). It took over my dining table for an afternoon, and some of my family may ha...
Process: Yarn Dyeing - First attempt at Self Striping Yarn
Просмотров 1754 года назад
I've never dyed self-striping yarn before... well, now I have! Join me on this super-quick yarn dyeing adventure (well, in real-time it actually took FOREVER... but it was lots of fun).
Glad I watched this AFTER Bendigo or you would have made me even more stressed than I was! Seeing your work at the show I can say that all your hard work was so worth it. Also, I was just watching someone's vlog where they said the printed bag was like, their favourite thing, so good work on that too!
Loved this podcast! Thank you for sharing your wok with us 🥰
My dad always said the dog was his favourite child. I was insulted until I became a parent myself!
oh, the struggle is real and the guilt is real. But you got there in the end. Well done and keep on creating.
With the small cut outs from the sock blockers, can you punch a small hole and put on small split-rings - use as stitch markers?
Fantastic vlog........So real and true to life. Your products look very professional but still handmade. What other shows do you do? Do you sell online? Was the show worth all the trouble? At the least you have a good supply of stock. Well done
thankyou! I really appreciate the comment about the style of my products. I'm definitely going for a handmade look while still maintaining the professional quality! My next show is Fibrefest in Wyong in October, that'll be the last one for 2024. 😅
Thanks Lisa for taking the time to highlight behind the scenes.You are doing amazing things in between life and family and should , like many crafters, be applauded for pursuing your dream. So much effort. So much talent. I wish you well.🙏👌👋🌏🐨❤
thats so kind! Thank you so much, I really appreciate it! Its definitely a tough gig, so its nice when people recognise what goes into it. 🥰
So interesting to see how another crafter works. Im Bondi Crafter on RUclips. I live in Sydney NSW. I have just subscribed. I loved the stencil and see a copier in action. Very helpful partner too. I always need a deadline about 2 weeks before the actual deadline so that Im not that stressed (mainly in theory) and it always ends ok. Hope to see soon.
Thankyou lovely! I'll have to check out your channel! 💖 deadlines motivate me too but I always think I can get more done than what I actually have time for! 😂
Loved the video... we cheered when the stencil worked out ! 😅
Aww thanks Jess! I think I heard you all the way up here! 🥰
Thankyou Lisa for a great podcast, enjoyed watching all your preparation for Bendigo 🧶
Thankyou so much!
It was such a pleasure meeting you at Bendigo!!! Hope you had a great time there ❤❤❤
Aww thanks! it was so nice to meet you there too! It was a great weekend, if just a bit cold 🥶
Thanks so much for inviting us into your studio, especially at such a busy time for you. As always, I so admire your creativity, dedication, perseverance, attention to detail and quality, openness, and courage! Blown away by all the effort you put into the sock blocker bags. I absolutely love mine and thought it was so thoughtful and generous of you to provide.
Thanks Bobbie! I really appreciate that! I always try to think of little things that will be useful for people but also cool to have! I might not put Matt through the experience of having to make another batch of bags though! 😂
I absolutely loved watching your podcast and creative process . Was just thinking when you were picking up the little “petals” from the sock blockers you could use a vacuum with a sock over it and suck them all up in one go. Looking forward to seeing more videos
oh. my. gosh that is GENIUS!!! I actually just got a little studio vaccuum for the sewing machine fluff but im definitely trying it on this!! 😱💖 THANKYOU!!
@@EleventyOneWindmills haha your welcome . Hopefully it will be a nice quick process for you
Love behind the scenes and seeing the processes behind the delightful products you make that are my treasured goodies.
Thankyou so much Skye! That means so much to me!!! 💖💖💖💖
i found it very interesting to look at all the behind the scenes of your laser cut items. fwiw the bags that the sock blockers came in are awesome and will definitely be put to good use in my yarn pantry organisation.
i'm so glad you enjoyed the video and the whole bag process! Though I might not put Matt through that experience again tbh 😂 (also... yarn pantry?! Love it!! 👍🏼)
Love this backstage pass like vlog 😊 I am so inspired to get to more festivals and markets 💚
Thanks so much for watching Mel! I'm so glad you enjoyed it, maybe i'll see you at the next event 🥰
‘Don’t eat the things’ 😂😂 Love it! So excited to see this video pop up - immediately subscribed and watched ❤ It was so good to meet you and chat in Bendigo - I love all the things you make!
Thanks so much Kath!! It was great to meet you too!
Yay! I'm here for all the videos!
YAY! Thanks Bec!! 💖
If it was me , if my cable is long enough to do both sleeves but not long enough to try on with I would add the extra cable at the time I plan on trying it on . But that’s just me .. other than that I like the way you doing it .
🌴☀️ This tutorial was so incredibly intuitive up close, and to the point. I am so very grateful that you took the time to make this video I appreciate you🌹 I use this method whilst knitting the Coastal Crop Raglan☀️🌴
Do you have issues with the float yarn twisting over on itself?
not really, you just need to make sure you keep your yarns in the same orientation each time you pick up the project!
First off I love the sweater pattern. I am right now working on a blue and white sweater with the trees similar to this along the bottom. I am a continental knitter. I have searched and searched for how to float continental. I’m so glad to have found this video. I have been doing an English float technique which is puckering my work. Since the sweater is a wear at home, learn how to knit color stranding project I am not too worried about it. I’m just glad to find a continental method of doing the floats.
Thank you very much for your tutorial! I'm learning that you can do just about anything and as long as you remember your own modifications and do the work, it all comes out the same in the end.
I came along waaaaaay after the spin along, in 2023🫢 a total beginner to drop spindling and have a bottom whorl Ashford spindle which I’m having difficulty with. I’ll have to get a top whorl spindle. A great series of tutorials though and I’ve saved them to use a bit later thank you Lisa ❤
I am a Continental Knitter, and I have been trying to find a tutorial that shows stranded colorwork-worked flat, holding the 2 yarns in the left hand, AND how to catch the floats on the WS-or Purl side-or BS. I have not found one anywhere. Is there anyway you could do one?
I have searched and searched for a good video tutorial on 2aat sleeves that made sense to me. Yours is very good! Thank you for sharing with all of us who want to knit our sleeves from the underarm down to the cuff. I finally understand how to do it!!
Could you not spit splice the 3 nano bobbins together as you wind them on the Knitty noddy ??
❤ the details!
Do you have any tips or tricks for lessening the bobbin noise? Mine rattles quite loud on the shaft.
Nice to have subtitles and the possibility to mute the sound. Cannot watch this with that irritating music in the background.
Appreciate the detail in your videos as well as the quick links to specific parts of the video that you put in the description for when I come back next time. Beautiful work! Thanks for sharing.
Sleeve archipelago, omg that’s outstanding! Love that.

Where is the link to the sweater with the trees??
