ANNOUNCEMENT: I’ve found that many of my customers are accomplished knitters but unsure of their felting skills. I’ve recently started a newsletter where I answer customer’s questions and provide tips on felting, as well as announce new patterns and provide substantial newsletter-only discounts.

An elegant sinuous shape in modern felt, Recherche is knit in the round from bottom to the top, incorporating a couple of rows of seed beads along the way. The ornament is gently stuffed with fiberfill, then felted in a washing machine. A little sparkle is added post-felting by pulling gold embroidery floss through the seed beads with a sewing needle. A great novice project for both felting and knitting with beads- every step is illustrated and explained!
