SEWING IS BETTER THAN KNITTING WHEN IT'S HOT OUTSIDE

Sorry for the lack of knitting content. I have been knitting, but there is nothing really to show you other than some half finished something or other that really isn't that impressive.

I have been working on more wrist cuffs...

They are improving. I have started adding snaps instead of using Velcro, although the ones I bought are too big.

Still having an issue with pressing the seams once the three edges are sewn. I also am having trouble sewing up the fourth edge with a blind stitch. Hopefully, I will figure it out soon...

Those are great bracelets, I would definitely wear one... They would also look great made from old ties (any cool thrift stores near you?).

Are you sewing these by hand or using a sewing machine? I keep thinking of starting to do some sewing... it's so so tempting. I love the fabrics you've got too, the combinations work really well. A.x

I MUST have a bracelet. How much?

WOW. Those are fabulous. I love how they look with the snaps and I bet they withstand more than velcro closures. As for the fourth edge how about making the wrist bands slightly longer, and folding in that fourth edge (on the inside of the band). Then stitch it down using a top stitch.

Nice job! The color combs are quite appealing. I tried making a few wrist cuffs a while back, but my sewing skills aren't particularly refined. I have a dritz snap punch thingie, but I always manage to mess up applying the snaps anyway.
