Felted Vessels
Well, here are the images of my felted vessels. I had a lot of fun doing this. These are knitted first on circular or double-pointed knitting needles and then felted in the washing machine with jeans or towels. The pinkish vessel took me about a day to knit. I had to run it through the washing machine 3 times to get it the way I liked. The green vessel took 2 days to knit. I ran it through the washer for the same amount of time. Both vessels took approximately a week to dry after I stuffed them both with plastic Target bags to hold their shapes. Anyway, a lot of fun. I still need to embellish them but I haven't decided what I am going to do as of yet.
