    Have been french knitting for some months now in between my usual knitting projects! Love your idea with spool knitting and I've made a multi coloured one in cotton for our new house so thanks slot for the precise easy instructions!❤

    This is awesome! I’ve been spool knitting a cord off and on for awhile now and had no idea what to do with the thing now that it is just over six feet long. It’s the perfect colour for my room too! Thanks for the idea!

    Thanks for this. I made a icord with cotton yarn with the intent of making a hot pad for my counter top then couldn't figure out the best way to put it together. This will be perfect :)

    Thank you! I have wanted a cushioned mat for in front of my kitchen sink but I could not find the colour that I wanted There are so many wonderful colours of yarn but I didn't know how to make that in to a mat. I love braided rug and own several already but they also weren't the right colour for my kitchen. So I discovered French knitting (spool knitting) but still didn't know how to translate the cord in to a rug. Now it all comes together! I am looking forward to making these rugs, never more being a slave to fashion designers' whims of what is 'in style' at the moment.

    After watching soooo many videos of rug making, I was ready to give up. Told myself I was cheap and stupid...pay the money, buy a rug and get over it. Sorry, not very pithy, I am complicated person;( Your video so inspired me...I am DOING THIS. Thanx for the clear, easy instruction. Made my day.

  • @jilliansmith7123
    @jilliansmith7123 6 лет назад +3

    thanks for this. Clever way to get the original long knitted tube thicker. I, too, use the sugar N cream cotton yarn, variegated. I use one round ball for each length and then brain three full-ball lengths together; then circle or oval them and stitch by hand. They make great yard "doilies" for under vases and things on tabletops. I don't actually think they'd make very good rugs. I came here to watch the whole playlist as I need some ideas of what else to make with the spool knitting process.

    Brilliant video, thank you. How do you finish off the rug? Or join 2 different colours? Thank you

    • @Needlepointers
      @Needlepointers  3 года назад +2

      Thank you for watching our video on making a spool knitted rug. It is possible to have another color. You would add the color when spool knitting. Attach the new color to the working yarn on the spool knitter with a knot. Keep spool knitting the working yarn in the first color until you reach the knot, and then keep spool knitting once you get to the new color yarn - as you go, make sure that the two loose ends of yarn are buried in the middle of your spool knitting tool as you knit. To finish it, bind off the cord from the spool knitter. Continue finger braiding until you only have a short piece left. Insert this short piece into the last loop. It ended, then just sew the end down.

    • @Needlepointers
      @Needlepointers  2 года назад

      Thank you for contacting us with your question. When the rug is the size wanted, cast off the yarn from the spool knitter, place the tail of the cord into the last chain's loop and pull tight to secure. Tuck this tail under the rug and stitch it into place and the rug is done.

    • @Needlepointers
      @Needlepointers  10 часов назад

      You will need a lot of spool-knitted cord. Since I made the rug as I was knitting, I don't know how long the cord was. The length of the cord will also vary by the weight of the yarn and the size of the finished rug. Have fun spool knitting!
