Extreme Crafters wanted for a new TV series!

December 6, 2012 by Vikram Goyal

NOW CASTING EXPERT EXTREME CRAFTERS WITH BIG PERSONALITIES!

Are you obsessed with crafting? Do you treat crafting like a sport?  When it comes to skill, are you the Martha Stewart of your local town?  Is crafting a huge part of your social life? Do you enter crafting contests and consider yourself the ringleader of crafting for your community, state or even the nation?

If you visit the craft store and hobby shop more than you go to the grocery store and you are the “queen of crafting” with an outrageous personality that people would enjoy watching on TV like Paula Dean or Abbey Lee Miller—then a casting company wants to hear from you!

Emmy award winning Production Company is on the hunt for THE most EXTREME CRAFTERS to star in a new show about YOU! If crafting is your life and you want to share your skills with the rest of the world, then email them now!

Knit Dinosaurs on a Circular Knitting Machine

Circular knitting machines are a lot of fun, and one of the best ways I have found to use them is to make seasonal decor and toys. I guess that’s because these are the kinds of projects that I don’t want to spend a ton of time on but still want to make from time to time.

That’s not to say that knitting machine projects can’t be detailed and time consuming. And really the great ones are those that take the time to add fun details to make the finished project that much more interesting.

Like these adorable dinosaurs from Three Magic Sheep Co. The pattern includes instructions for a triceratops and a stegosaurus. Here they’re shown in coordinating candy colors, which I love, but you can of course make yours in any color you like. 

The larger pieces of the body and legs are worked on either a 46 or 48 pin machine, while the smaller parts are worked on a 22-pin machine. I don’t know if a lot of people have both but the 22 pin machines are so inexpensive it’s nice to have both for projects like this. I’m not sure what she used for the triceratops horns, but in customer pictures on the listing it shows people have made them with both knitting and crochet so you can do that, too, instead of buying horns to use.

The details on these are really cute (you will want to buy safety eyes, or you can embroider eyes on if you’d rather) and customers note it takes longer to sew the pieces together than it does to crank them.

This looks like a fun pair of patterns to make for a dinosaur loving kiddo (or adult!) in your life. You can check out the pattern and all the customer comments and photos at Three Magic Sheep Co. on Etsy.
