Inspiration By Design
Sometimes the simplest project can make you the happiest. These basic hearts make us grin. They’re made as a rectangular swatch (ours are in Poems 100% wool), then felted, cut into a heart shape, and blanket stitched around the edge make a cute home decor project. Glue or needle-felt on whatever phrase moves you.
So, crafty valentine, what’s your needleart of choice?
Universal has a project in the works that has the knitters in the office wanting to brush up our skills a little, so today seemed like a good day to practice Fair Isle.
Today’s Sunday Swatch is in Merino XF Superwash on US Size 7 (4.5mm) needles. Amy Gunderson whipped up a little heart chart for Valentine’s Day and we just couldn’t resist giving it a try. Cute!
