My felt books arrived yesterday. Loads of great info and great project ideas! I have always liked felt and would like to incorporate it into some of the things that I make (I also plan to felt some tweed) I ordered these from Amazon at about 2am - I think I must have whipped myself up into a felt frenzy after surfing the net looking at knitting and felting blogs!
Alot of felt/feltmaking is a bit garish for my taste but these things have caught my eye as future projects.
I really like felt balls/beads. So tactile. I adore the little bunny slippers - the one on the left is very bold - staring straight at camera! And the cobweb scarf and holey wrap are great too - love the textures and plain colours.
The felt bowls are great - think this will be one of the first things that I attempt. I just want them!!
I am trying to find an eve class or something so I can learn properly but until then I will attempt to felt some old jumpers of mine that I rediscovered during my latest clear out. The word has gone out to everyone I know - save your old wool jumpers for me!
Armed with my felt books I am planning to make bags/purses out of them - will see how it goes!
yeah,,.but what's with the devil bunny on the right? Great looking books btw, enjoy being inspired!! xxx
