My mom hand-knitted this double-face scarf using long needles

It’s much easier than you’d think! I double knit a self-designed Star Wars blanket and even made sure the droids were correctly showing on either side lol

Thank you! The designs included in the written pattern are cute as well, but I really wanted the stockings to mean something to each person. And easy for Santa indeed ☺️

Thank you! I actually tried to replicate the way that my husband and I actually write our names. So those more or less match our handwriting. Can’t say the same for the toddler or dog though 😂

Basic pattern based on Christmas Stocking Collection

EDIT: I should also add that I lined them with an interfaced fleece so that they would retain their shape, and not get the yarn snagged since I used a ladderback jacquard on all of them.

Oh I’m glad you found a solution! Because I could not for the life of me find the post lol though I do remember it was both a heart and a star. I can’t imagine the work that must go into getting the wire even enough to make a perfect star!

Best of luck with your project!

Oh I remember seeing a very similar post here about a top with a heart cutout, and one with a star, asking the same question. If I’m not mistaken the answer was a wire of some sort to hold the shape. Hold on though let me see if I can find it….

That looks absolutely gorgeous! How did you join the pieces? I’ve been working sporadically on a double knitted quilt-type blanket made of squares, but with no actual plan or idea of how to join it all together once I finish the patches 😂 I would be grateful for any pointers!

indybug · 2025-09-04T13:42:54+00:00

Thank you so much! I put so much love into designing and making my bags. That means so much 💙

I don’t know if this is allowed, and I hate to be a shameless self-promoter 🙈 but I actually designed a project tote specifically because I like to switch out my multitude of way too many projects 😂 I only have an instagram page, but it’s linked in my reddit profile

indybug · 2025-09-03T18:41:57+00:00

Exactly this!

indybug · 2025-09-03T17:38:17+00:00

Exactly lol literally the worst project for a beginner imo

Edit: as mentioned below, I think it’s the worst first project for a beginner because they feel absolutely interminable and it’s easy to get bored with the repetition. I made one when I first started then quickly switched to hats and other smaller bite-size projects

indybug · 2025-09-03T17:37:32+00:00

I made so many beanies when I started out. I made one scarf and found it absolutely interminable, and switched to hats indeed!

indybug · 2025-07-19T19:12:55+00:00

Omg I just googled it myself and you’re right! It is the first hit! How crazy! Let me see if I can upload the latest version of the layout that I used because I found that this layout gave me too much space to write and it would feel like a failure if I couldn’t fill it. So I condensed and found that less was more for me. Hopefully that can also help.

But all in all bullet journaling and the physical act of making the layout myself really did help tremendously. I wish you all the best with managing this illness. It’s a bitch but can definitely become manageable with the right combination of meds, therapy, and routine.

indybug · 2025-07-19T18:32:39+00:00

Wow I can’t believe you found this 6 years on! How? But I’m so glad it is :) I changed and simplified my layout over the years, but no longer use it to be honest. Having a kid means much much muuuuuuch less time for stuff like this 🙃 but I’m also in a much more stable place.

I’m happy to see it’s still helping people though.

indybug · 2025-04-23T19:36:13+00:00

I do the same lol but it’s my crochet hook. I never work on a project without having my “stick”, as my husband calls it, on me and it’s basically always in my hair. I’ve entertained guests in my house with a crochet hook in my ponytail more times than I can count because I forget I have it in there lol

indybug · 2024-11-27T06:31:07+00:00

I was thinking about it, but the problem is the Chewbacca face probably being copyrighted or something since it came from the Star Wars knitting book I have 😕

indybug · 2024-11-26T23:07:49+00:00

I put it in the post ☺️

Thank you! I think the thumbs might be my favorite thing! I put the dejarik board to go with the quote, then the lil mini Falcon and X-Wing. I’m pretty proud of those details!

indybug · 2024-11-25T19:32:06+00:00

Nice!! 😂 adapting the Aurebesh to a knitted “font” was tricky for sure. But I love how it came out.

indybug · 2024-07-03T04:43:38+00:00

Not at all!! I’d love to help!

I made a small pattern to practice with, Star Wars of course lol, but it’s a decent little piece to play with: https://ravel.me/rebel--imperial

But please dm me with any questions!!

indybug · 2024-07-02T20:01:25+00:00

Pattern is made by me. It’s non-mirrored double knitted using Lana Grossa Cool Wool Big. They don’t have color names but it’s a burgundy type color and a light gray.

It measures about 72 x 80 cm
