Wool Mushroom Hat

This great little hat was made using up scrap wool in shades of blue and aqua. The upper portion was worked holding 2 strands together, one of worsted wool and another of cotton/silk. The brim was worked in a bulky weight wool.

Water Bottle Sling

Photobucket

My water bottle kept sweating all over the papers in my book bag, so I whipped up this quick and easy solution using a felted wool sweater. The whole operation took about 15 minutes and is so handy!

Felted Handbag



I made this bag a few years ago for my sil, bff, birthday twin. I found the pic while sorting through my pictures yesterday and thought I'd share it. The entire bag is made from a wool sweater my mama pulled out of a give away bin and I machine felted. The pocket on the front is the perfect size for a cell phone. Hands on time for the entire project was less than 45 minutes.

My needles seem to be going non-stop here lately. I am knitting slippers for my lovies this Valentine's Day. The pattern is easy and mindless, so it is a good one for a mama with a stuffed up head. The gift actually serves multiple purposes. 1) It tells my babies that I love them. 2)It keeps little feet warm. 3) It keeps them out of MY slippers.

Felted Gauntlets



Finally, something for me! I made these gauntlets out of a felted wool sweater that once belonged to my daughter...perfect! The entire project took less than 5 minutes and I am extremely happy with the results.
