Issue 248 Felted Trio in Crestone
The Web-Letter is a big project at CEY - many of our tiny staff are involved in each issue. One of our goals is to publish designs in step with the season: summer pieces for the warm months and wooly designs when it's chilly outside. This week's Felted Trio in Crestone is the perfect compromise to our summer/winter division - a season-less project made with wool.
Each bowl starts at the rim and is worked down with simple shaping. Big needles make for speedy knitting and quick felting. I made all three in a weekend, including swatching and writing the patterns (so I know you'll knit them up even faster). Better yet? Assuming my cat continues to stake her claim in the round bowl, all three are already spoken for, leaving plenty of room for more when I'm ready for another stint of wooly summertime knitting.
Wool craving satisfied, I'm back to imagining I have enough time to knit Redbud in every color of Firefly. Happy summer!
