Fall Felting

Posted on October 29, 2009 at 3:00pm 6 Comments 0 Likes

The weather is turning colder, and it's a great time to be thinking about warm slippers, hot cider, and snuggling by the fire under a cozy afghan. I'm busy with several felting projects at the moment, and fall is such a nice time to work on things like that. I've got 4 pairs of slippers in process (serially, not concurrently) - one pair in the Laced Slippers Pattern, and I'm working on the…

39 Felted Snow People - complete

I started Christmas early this year - last April or May. And I'm now done. Whew! I made 13 sets of the Felted Snowmen pattern (39 total snowmen). It was a wonderful project to work on over the summer. Very portable, small, and no heavy warm wool resting on me in the heat.

Last Wed. it was -14 on my drive to work (fortunately only at 10-15 minute drive). Hope you have a wonderful holiday season as well. I plan to enjoy family and, after the rush this week and next, relax a knit some. Jeanne

I think it was Kate that mentioned in one of the podcast about how she likes to follow that site. They are fast and easy to make and then just need a little needle felting to make each one special.
