Felting is something that I wasn’t originally interested in, but over time, the idea has grown on me. For my first pattern, I wanted to start with something small. An accent is a great first felted project because even if you don’t felt it enough or you felt it a little too much, the difference in size won’t be disastrous. Try adding a cluster of felted flowers to a finished hat or scarf or wearing one as a brooch to finish off an outfit.

Skill Level:

Finished Size: 3″ (7.5 cm) diameter before felting, 2″ (5 cm) diameter after felting

Materials: Medium Weight Wool Yarn (approximately 5 yards) – be sure to use a yarn that will felt Crochet Hook G (4.00 mm)

Gauge:
Rounds 1 -3 in pattern measure 3″ (7.5 cm) in diameter before felting
