Christmas Decs


With Christmas looming on the horizon Amanda hand felted a decoration for the tree and then sewed on beads and one of Debbie's hand made buttons.

The amazing bobbly bag


This wonderful tactile creation by Janet was knitted in Rowan Big wool and Katia Big Snow (a chance find at the tiny market in St Julien l'Ars), then felted in the washing machine, she seemed to think it might continue it's life as a cushion rather than a bag though.

Soho Bag


Ros is a second timer having already been to the workshop in June, her main aim for the week was to convert a vintage pattern to fit, however she also ran up this little felted bag in Debbie Bliss Soho (which by the way is brilliant for felting!)

Sweater design


Cathy was given the holiday as a present from the company she works for (what a nice company!), she used the week to concentrate on her design idea for a sweater worked sideways from cuff to cuff, incorporating stripes and fairisle.

Tania's knitting bag


Tania knitted this marvellous bag from Rowan Big wool and then felted it in the washing machine, the hand felted pink squares were sewn on afterwards. It is the perfect size and shape for all those new knitting projects.

Mood board


Jackie who is currently doing the City and Guilds course with Ros produced this wonderful mood board based on her photograph of Southwold. The finished project is going to be a panelled scarf in this fantastic colour combination.

Was it something she said.............


As you can see there is plenty of room to find your own space!
