Felt Shpelt

My apologies for my lack of blogging the past month! I've been both enjoying and feeling the pains of unemployment before school starts and just got back from the lake and an escape to Toronto with the boyfriend. I have yet to organize the pictures from the trip but soon I will have pictures up from our visits to the local art galleries! In the meantime I have been working on knitting a scarf and my best friend and I spent the other night learning how to felt. Her mom is a master knitter having worked at Ram Wools and has an entire room full of crafty supplies. So we spent the night stabbing felt with felting needles. These bad boys are the start of many felting adventures to come...

  1. Amazing! I think you might be one of those crafters who's instantly great at anything they try. I'm pretty sure.

  2. Aw thanks Jill! It's actually really simple - now if I could only find somewhere in Winnipeg that sells felting needles!

  4. Ah, lovely! I've been wanting to make pom pom earrings, but these felted ones are even better than what I had in mind. Felting is great, it's one of those things that I've only tried a couple of times but hasn't really mastered.. yet when seeing this, I think I'll have another go at it. Mucho cool earrings!
