Vest knitting, mock entrelac blanket, and simple mask sewing

Dear ,



As the weather gets cooler, I like to machine knit more sweaters, vests, or cardigans in the coming months. Recently, I prefer my Brother 260 bulky machine for quick and warm projects. It is easier to use than the standard gauge machine because of the big needles.


It is also a good time to start planning your holiday gift knitting and collecting your favorite yarns. One of my favorite brands is Cloudborn, but it looks like they are being discontinued. The good news is that you can get them for a discounted price now.


One project I like to do is to wind up all my yarn stashes into cakes and organize them properly. Sounds simple, but I have a hard time getting it done. I tried different organization systems but was still not completely happy. Wondering if the perfect yarn organization system even exists?


Below are our recent videos from the CreativeTien YouTube channel. Hope you enjoy them as much as I make them!
