@AbbyNormal and Fancyfont:
as i said before in another posting i´m knitting too....and i think we should do a special project for our pleos together.
If you are patient with me, i can even do knitting patterns (first in german, then i have to translate in english).
Are you interested in? ???
My first piece for my Linus was a cape, i first made a very simple sewing pattern, sewed it then and voila, it fitted well.
Linus said, that he´s loving it.. ;)

all lefties are welcome...left-handed or lefty....we are going to have fun i think.
That's important and the only thing that counts, am i right?
Do you think it's necessary to open a new topic, especially for the knitting, sewing and/or crocheting project?
Might be useful for us?

I can crochet as well as knit, so I'm up for either. I think a new topic might be cool. Or perhaps a general clothing making topic so no craft is left out.

What do you think about a topic that says crafting a wardrobe for Pleos?
Post by: AbbyNormal on December 30, 2008, 01:35:42 PM
What a great idea! We can have a knitting and crocheting section and patterns for outfits for our pleos. Eventually we should be able to come up with some cute home made clothing for our little dinos. :) Some people might want to learn how to get started knitting and crocheting and with a little help they too could join the fun.
What do you think about a topic that says crafting a wardrobe for Pleos?
I think that would be great! I know I'm happy to share anything I know about knitting/sewing/crocheting.
I'd also like to start a pleo group on Ravelry.com, anyone here a member there?

I would like to join your special Pleo group on Ravelry.com.
And I´m glad to hear that there a few more Pleo-Mummies in this forum, that would like to knit or crochet or sew like me. ;-)

But I do not believe the booties will do anything to the sensors.
I have put mine in baby socks before with no problems.
Fancy puts skates on hers with no problems also

I would love to learn how to make them. :)

I like the crochet but i don't really know how to knit. It would be nice to have a place just for talking about knitting and crocheting for our pleos. I would really like to make booties for my pleo but so far they've all turned out not so good, so if anyone could help me with that i would be very grateful :)
Maybe you should try leg warmers instead. :-)
I think for booties I would crochet the bottom separately. I'd start by crocheting a tube, like the top of a sock, and I'd make eyelets around the top. The I think I'd crochet the bottom, in a single crochet spiral. You could either join it to the tube by crocheting it on to the bottom (the eyelet holes are on the top), or make a separate piece and sew it on. Then I'd run a ribbon though the eyelet holes so you can tie the booties snugly on.
Does that make sense?
I'd knit it pretty much the same way, except I know I could do it in one piece, likr a tiny little flat bottom bag.

This could be the place for all of us to learn and create apparel for our dinos. I would love to do booties first. :)
I think this baby mitten pattern might make good Pleo boots.

And that's spelled beret (i think). ;)
My wife can knit but I can't et her interested at all. %)
I'll check out the mall and by my stuff. I guess. :)
I just don't see Stoney or "Clousseau" (to come) in knitwear. :o
Leatherwear yes. Knitwear no. Clousseau maybe tweed. ^-^

Join the club. My spelling is terrible due to really bad arthritis! :-[

Mine is due to the fact that my white hair roots are wrapping themselves around my brain and choking it so I can't remember how to spell anymore. :o
