I'm delighted with how the knitted flowers turned out - they went in a hot wash and have felted very nicely. I actually like the fact that in some places you can still see the stitches. I've added a link for buying these kits to the previous post, so if you are inspired to have a go ....
As I said, it's highly likely that my friends and family will be getting these for Christmas - the kit includes brooch pin backs. Now where did I put those knitting needles?
OMGosh ... they are wonderful. Oh to be able to knit. Wouldn't they look darling on a sweater for my lil' princess. Darn. I've tried knitting years ago, it was not successful. They are beautiful.
