It's a flexible and durable plastic sleeve where you can store the label and record information about where and when the yarn was purchased. When it comes time to stash, you can estimate the remaining yardage, include a picture of your project and wrap the soft elastic around the yarn to keep it neat and tidy. See the April 3 post for more information. Or email Purl@knitandplenty.com to order yours today. 3 for $5.00, 7 for $11.00 and 15 for $22.00. Its the best way to maximize your yarn investment!

That 70's Bag

Something about a denim looking purse with leather handles just says 70's to me.

LUSHest Moss Stitch Scarf

A seed stitch and a ruffle. See Free Recipes for the Regina Moss Stitch scarf.

I Cord Necklaces

Looking for a quick and satisfying project for one nigh? Try a 4-stitch i-cord out of jeweled tone yarn. Add a bead or a button to close and it's instant gratification.

Easter Basket

It FELT like Spring.

Blue Bouquet

I had a blast creating all these wild felted flowers.

The deadly daffodil.

Did you know that Daffodils can kill you? Especially when you have to felt them.

Susan's Bobble Scarf

This is a great and easy way to make a one skein, two hour scarf.

It Felt Good

....To finish a bag, although I should have run it through the wash one more time. Patience is a virtue.

Felted Rose Flower Basket

The pattern for this is from Vogue Knitting, Winter 2005. There was a great Knit-along that really helped with the pattern but is since disappeared. I did something wrong, because it was suppose to end up a purse. Oh, well. Its a great way to display yarn.
