Recently, I saw some beautiful rubber knitting needle vases and that got me thinking… I love crocheting containers and fulling makes these vases strong enough to hold all your needles and notions. Once you get the hang of the basic concept, you can make containers in every size to hold things all over your house! Although it probably goes without saying, if you want to use these for flowers, make sure to stick a glass vase inside the wool one. Wool is water resistant, but it won’t actually hold water!

TIP: I made a few swatches in the round before creating the final vases, and you should too--I felted the swatches to see what would happen and to figure out how long to swatch the vases. The resulting round discs make great coasters and trivets!
