I had a few orders for "Scarfickles" this year and made 5 others for gifts. I really don't know if I should go on with these felting projects as they are proving to be quite risky indeed! I used to do a lot of felting when I was a wee girl of 18 and don't recall so many injuries, accidents and curse words!
Just since November, I have gone through 2 boxes of Nexcare bandaids(Dora the Explorer and Winnie the Pooh), had a fight with HER about NOT getting a tetanus shot, scalded my hands in boiling water and dyed my mothers good tablecloth ugly, ugly red. (Yes, that is a real colour).
Perhaps I should just stick to painting and woodenly things that don't require barbed needles and boiling water. Perhaps I should, but I won't. If you are ever at emerge, I'll be the one with the felting needle sticking out of my thigh as my jaw locks. No comments, please.

P.S. Some of the yarn used in my scarfickles is from Island Sweet...the most magical yarn in the universe!!!!

i think they are wonderful and definitely worth the pain!
Why are you felting with a needle when there is a less painful method of making those lovely objects? Write to me and I will tell you all my secrets. Brenda
