Winter is here! That means its time for some SIMPLE CRAFT because there is nothing better then popping on a favourite DVD, drinking large amounts of tea and indulging in some mindless crafting during these cooler months, hey?
Yesterday I made some cute little fingerless gloves (or are they wrist warmers?? I don't know!!)
I used a felted woollen cardigan (a washing machine "incident") Oops!
To make the gloves, I simply cut the ends of the sleeves off to the size I wanted. I then cut a little hole for my thumbs.
And that's it!!
I still have most of the cardigan left, so I'm already thinking of what else to make with it! fun, fun!I love working with felted wool, it's easy to sew...and cute! And I might even fool the odd person into believing that I have actually knitted or crocheted something, when in fact I have not! I'll be back soon with some more simple crafts!!
What simple & creative ideas have you come up with recently??
