Felting... with cows.

"I see you......"
" Hey, where are you going? I just want to take your picture."
"Mommy, mommy, It's the lady that makes that clicking noise."
Run baby run.....
Safe at last, in the arms of the herd.

And after sharing a moment of "new calf in the Spring"....

Remember this yarn? Paton's Classic Wool- in Harvest.
This is the finished scarflet  with added pink and burgundy wool yarn in the middle to "Spring" it up a bit. I actually like this yarn felted more than just knitted.


I decided to add the button to the crocheted flower but I added a pink crocheted round under the button to add some contrast. Thanks for those of you who gave me your opinions on "with or without" the button.
Then felted some yarn to use as ties....I felted them to attach to the scarf so it stays in place around a person's neck.
 Made some knitted I cords with tails so that I could try some necklaces. This needs more work. I want them thicker in the middle. I will take them to my sister and have her work her" magic jewelry thoughts" on them. Stay tuned....
Have a happy knitting, quilting, sewing, reading or just sitting by the fireplace with hot tea kind of weekend.
