Never felt So Good!

July 28, 2007 |

I purchased the book entitled “Knitting Never Felt Better” By: Nicky Epstein.  This is filled with incredible felting ideas and such unique applications and felting methods.   My friend knitted this scarf using Artyarns Kid Mohair Yarn, Color: 411 Fern, on her knitting machine because I simply did not want to knit a scarf on size 6 needles and she owed me :) I then I used glass flower arranging pebbles and tiny piggy hair rubber brands to make the felted puffs. You leave the rubber bands in during and after felting until dry.  When dry, remove the rubber bands and the puffs stay put.  It is really a charming scarf!
Please check out the book and consider buying it if you love unusual types of knitting and felting.

    absoulutely love this scarf. It is so soft and it is sure to draw questions from the public when it is worn out.
