Felted Wool Bowl

One of my most recent bowls is by far one of my most favorite.  The simple design and perfect shape is what makes this one special for me.

I started by crocheting a simple brown bowl with fishermans wool in a rich dark brown.  Then I crocheted another bowl, just slightly smaller in natural fishermans wool.  Using lemongrass wool I connected the two bowls at the rim and processed in the washer for 3 cycles.

The result is stunning with a super thick felted wool bowl

New This Week

This week I have been working on a custom order for three photo album covers.

The request was for a 8 inch high and 10 inch wide book with a 2 inch by 6 inch opening in the front. The cover is to be fixed to the book with adhesive by the client and it was requested that it was made with a natural looking wool.

My trial one came out pitiful! But I think I needed to work through it to figure out what works well. The second one came out good and I'll be knitting up the remaining 2 covers this week.



I was also able to get these fun items completed this week:

Felted Card Holder $12


Knit Wool Blend Double Braided Cable Scarflette in georgeous cranberry $25


Red and Grey Felted Wool Bowl $18


All would make fabulous gifts.

Getting ready for fall

Yes - I said fall. Even though we are in the middle of July, my thoughts are about all the wonderful fall colors. Last week I listed 3 new items in my shop and I've noticed that they are all fall-ish and I love the way they look together.

New items include an oatmeal colored knit wool blend clutch is a great shade that will coordinate with just about anything, a rich golden colored knit wool scarflette in ribbed cables, and a fabulous large felted wool bowl in brown and orange.




I have some lovely paprika, sage and red to add in the future weeks, so be on the look out!

Romantic Rose Bud Trellis Wool Bowl

The funny thing about making felted bowls is that I never know how each one will turn out once it comes out of the washing machine. I try to predict, but it is always a surprise to me in the end.

I couldn't be more pleased with the results of my newest rose bud trellis bowl ~~ Romantic, Soft and Lovely. What a great addition to a country cottage home or that unique gift for a special woman in your life!

Sunday Morning

I woke up to sunshine and birdy sounds this morning. It is incredibly peaceful this morning and I enjoyed a cup of coffee on the porch soaking in the sunshine.

We kept to our walking plan all week, missing only one evening due to severe thunderstorms, and going between 2 - 3.5 miles each night. It's funny how I've started looking forward to our walk each night now that it is becoming routine.

I was recently approached by Traci of Big Fork Bay Cotton Co to donate an item to Heart @ Work Auction which benefits the Susan G. Komen Foundation, and I jumped at this chance to stimulate creativity. The auction is August 8, 2009 and you can see more etsy shops that are donating items on her blog:

This is the bowl that I made to donate to the cause. I wanted to make something with pink and I think these pink flowers go nicely on the grey background.

I have a couple fresh goodies for you in my shop this week as well ~

This knit scarfette combines wool, linen, cotton and acrylic for a wonderful soft blend and is knit with a braided cable center with traditional cable edges.



Fill this vase with fresh cut flowers to brighten up any room - Knit in a beautiful sunny yellow wool with cables surrounding the vase.


This set of 4 felted wool nesting bowls in bold primary colors are pefect for home or office to organize and brighten your space.
