apparently the person who spoke for these is no longer interested. i did box them and the box is 12 lbs -- lots of sweater parts! i am willing to split the...
I've just joined your little group and I thought I might introduce myself. I'm in Australia, renowned for its Merino sheep. Currently in the midst of the...
Hi Barbara: I'm Ana Maria in Indiana, U.S. This group has been rather quiet lately but I'm sure the members read the postings. Let's see if we can get everyone...

A friend of mine heard that I was playing around with hot water and old sweaters, and made me a pair of mittens from fulled sweaters! She used an Icelandic...
Hi, I'm Alexandra. Firstly, I'd like to say that I was really, really impressed with all the wonderful advice on edges etc that you folks gave to Cathy! What...
Once an article has been felted completely (that is, the knitted stitches no longer show), it has become more or less a fabric, rather than a piece of ...
Rae, Nothing is beyond your skills !!! It's all in what you want to make. The very first thing I knit was a pair of socks. I bought the book, yarn and 2...
I learned a little trick a long time ago....don't read a pattern like your reading a book...just do what it say's step by step. Sometimes what you have in your...
Wow, that bag is cute! Thanks for the link. Alexandra Grant-Paul Communications & Marketing Coordinator Faculty of Computer Science Room 204, 6050 University...
Hiya. Sorry to be so slow replying but I've been away. I'm so exciting by the topic of this group that I'm loaded with questions! The idea of making mitts...
Felt the sweater or pieces of the sweater first, before sewing them together. You can not predict the results... Not all sweaters will felt the same. Always...
It depends on what you are making. If you don't want a bulky seam and the pieces are all from the same sweater, you'll get a much nicer finish if you sew...
Wow, Debbie, your black and red bowl is SO elegant. Did you make the pattern yourself, or is it a pattern you can either share or direct us to? Also, it was...
Alexandra, Thank you very much for the compliaments. The red and black bowl is my own design and a pattern I offer for sale.. The cabled bag is a pattern I...
And a very nice bed it is!! Gremlin is obviously very impressed with your handiwork as well. I really like basket type cat beds - but my cat prefers to sprawl...
OMG! That cat bed is so beautiful! Adding synthetic fun yarn is something I never would have considered. Was it in your pattern or did you come up with it...
Hiya. I'm on facebook. For those of you who don't know it, it's a web- based social interaction tool. It's traditionally been for university students, but...
Hi. I'd love to hear about people's favourite felting books. The usual: name, author and what makes them so special. Any discussion of good pattern sources...
On of our local knitting gurus recommends the rather obviously titled "Felted Knits" by Beverly Galeskas. It's definitely on my wish list, as it seems to be...
Thanks again for this is great info. I have a gorgeously patterned peruvian sweater ripped apart at the seams. It's a fairly complicated pattern, rather like...
I would say thay you felt it enough so you can cut it without it ravelling all over the place. Then you can put it together, maybe decorate it and finish it. I...
Oh I bet that sweater is gorgeous! I can't wait to see pictures... hint hint! Yea, I'd full it a bit first, just enough to get the fibers to grip each other....
