Conveniently, there's a Fabricland at the mall across the street from my office, so I can go and buy all the necessary things like bobbins and thread and such. |
The largest is the drawer machine which has 4 feeds and knits from four bobbins. |
The family room tree has a sewing theme, with spools, bobbins and buttons for ornaments. |
I wanted as much of the tweediness as I could manage, and a fairly homogeneous color, so I plied two bobbins of two-ply yarn and then plied the results together. |
When finished with the length you want, take the strands off the bobbins and lace them through the holes in the edge of the pouch, two strands per side. |
Whenever the lantern was filled, the tenter carried the roving to a simple machine, where it was wound upon bobbins by hand. |
