My boyfriend wants gloves for Christmas and I am at a loss for a nice basic pattern with a ribbed cuff - single colour, no fancy patterns. Any suggestions would be much appreciated!

Does anyone have any suggestions for embossing a texture into felt while it is drying?

I finally got around to trying felting. I had some ends of Rowan Big from Christmas hats last year, so I made a dish



Being an apartment dweller with a crazy scary basement laundry room, I opted for felting by hand in the sink. It took a few rounds of hot water and some serious arm work, but I think it turned out really well!

Thanks for looking.
