I like how tricot gets me thinking in terms of rows because it will help me to understand knitting better. <br />Tricot has a forward pass and a return pass for each row. The return pass is so quick to do that it makes one eager to start another row! That is how tricot becomes addictive. When I learn a new stitch pattern, it makes me want to learn more!<br /><br />If I can sit outside with my hooks and the birds for company, I will be happy. Do you like knitting with nature? I hope to get to know you better. <br /><br />Wishing a great weekend to you too! <br />Jodiebodiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11377052537742885631noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-703986833050265474.post-42931117189137583392017-02-17T22:56:04.769+10:302017-02-17T22:56:04.769+10:30So very beautiful!

I love knitting and can do a little bit crocheting. Only little, but enough to know crocheting can be even more addictive than knitting. :)<br />Thank you for the interesting post. Have a great weekend! xxSara - Villa Emiliahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17402655388283396110noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-703986833050265474.post-39432346424621985672017-02-14T17:05:01.392+10:302017-02-14T17:05:01.392+10:30Now you have got me thinking, Cat!

These samples haven't been washed or blocked. I can't wait to make a more formal project using these stitches so I can block them and see how the lace looks once its opened up a bit more.Jodiebodiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11377052537742885631noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-703986833050265474.post-4642131528011294012017-02-14T17:01:55.194+10:302017-02-14T17:01:55.194+10:30Yes, and there are more stitches too but I ran out...Yes, and there are more stitches too but I ran out of time to create examples of them all before the Maker Faire. <br /><br />I am always on the lookout for new tricot patterns because there was hardly any information available when I first learned about it. Back in the early 2000s when I was looking for resources, all I could find was one book; just one; and it was from the library and out of print. <br /><br />Nowadays, I am so thrilled to see so many tricot books have been published since. If only I could have them ALL on my bookshelf for future reference. It is still ridiculously hard to source the hooks through mainstream craft shops in Australia, leaving no option but to order them in from overseas or make them myself.Jodiebodiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11377052537742885631noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-703986833050265474.post-48516512996555148322017-02-14T16:55:47.947+10:302017-02-14T16:55:47.947+10:30Thank you for the compliment, Mary-Anne.

It is like knitting with a crochet hook, or crocheting onto a knitting needle! I find it intellectually stimulating whichever way I look at it. :-)Jodiebodiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11377052537742885631noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-703986833050265474.post-88913167267451309562017-02-14T07:52:26.041+10:302017-02-14T07:52:26.041+10:30Did I tell you there is a new section for the Show...Did I tell you there is a new section for the Show? It says "Knitting and Crochet" - only two classes and one of them is "Tricot - any article".
