Unfelted Hearts


Unfelted Hearts

I present to you my 2011 Knitted hearts. I really enjoyed knitting these two heart Milagros and hope I will be able to make some more. I always seem to run out of time to give them away on Valentine's Day. The pattern is the book Gifted Lovely Little Things to Knit + Crochet by Mags Kandis.

The pattern is super easy and the heart is knitted flat (using two needles) size U.S. 6 (4mm)

This will be my first time doing the felting process on something that has been stuffed with polyester fiberfill. I will probably used the washing machine to do the shrinking (felting) process since it is less time consuming.

The neat cool picture effect was created using Picnik.
