felted sweater dress
Today I happened upon one of the pieces of a felted sweater project that I started awhile ago. This happens a lot in our house. I’m so enthusiastic to start new projects and then something happens and the project is put on hold until I find it some days/months/years later. Somehow this felted piece ended up in our clean laundry basket so I found it and started thinking about using it. It was once the front of a small cashmere sweater (from Value Village) that I felted in the washing machine. The material is really soft, thick and warm. It seems like it would make a cute jumper dress for my daughter, if it was sewn together with the matching back piece. I decided to needle-felt some heart & flower designs on the front. I didn’t have time to finish the needle-felting tonight, but will post the result tomorrow.
