My Oops Scarf

July 25, 2007 by Linda Lanese

I have wanted to try doing the felted medallions onto a scarf.  Due too many factors that were my fault, I now have my Oops Scarf.  First when I made the medallions I forgot to use the bamboo skewers to roll the roving around.  I just rolled them!  This was not too bad but when I went to felt them to the scarf because it was tightly woven silk, it would not wet felt.  I them decided to needle felt the medallion on and began seeing the tiny pin pricks around the edge of the medallion.  I was upset but kept needle felting.  Well, much to my surprise I saw an interesting smocking pattern emerge and thought it was intriguing and I finished it off.  Not that I would do it again, but the scarf is pretty and useable. I thought I would share my mistakes with you.  Regards,

Linda
