I’ve been working on these
for about a day, and I’m getting so excited! Perfect for lounging around or stretching if you’re a dancer.
In order to do this pattern, you literally need to know how to knit a square. So basically everyone can make this. No double pointed needles, no circular, no weird skip three knit together yarn over hand jive stuff!

Relatively straightforward concept, but I really like the fact she made it wearable for work. Working in an office I find myself running out of bottoms to wear! Cute blouses and button downs are easy to find but whipping up a reasonable length, not too tight skirt is a great tool.

In this tutorial, they assume you’re using a clear bulb. If you’re using one that is opaque white, here’s a helpful tip to get the paint off.
Once you’ve poked through the top, dump some salt INTO the bulb, cover up the top with your finger, and swirl the salt around. This should scrape off the white and leave you with a clear bulb! Just dump out the salt and paint dust once that’s done.
I’ve used this technique for something else that I used a bulb for and it really does work.

A great gift. Is it weird I also thought you could make this into like an archery bag for a Katniss costume? Yeah I’m strange, no shame.

Lots of stuff on sale at Michaels (especially if you use the additional 15% off coupon) - including one line of their beads for 50% off. Also, if you go to any of these crafts/fabric stores, I suggest getting their apps so you can use their coupons that way.
