Transform Cast Off Sweaters into Sweet Felted Treats
Warm Fuzzies is filled with more than 30 cute and colourful projects made from wool sweaters, including cozy pillows and throws as well as stylish hats, scarves and handbags.
There’s something to make for everybody, including all the beloved “little creatures” in your life. Your pup will look adorable in the Haute Dawg Doggie Sweater, and your favourite princess will adore the Teacup Jumper with the playful mouse finger puppet tucked in the pocket.
There are plenty of projects for grown ups too, like the Rainbow Bag with rows of colourful waves and the Rustic Throw with reverse appliqué leaves.

WHAT WE THOUGHT

The crafting techniques available truly amaze me, I had no idea you could make your own felt! What I like about these projects is that you don’t need a huge budget – creating can quickly become an expensive hobby.
There is a lot of freedom with these patterns, the materials you use is entirely up to you. The fun part is definitely hunting for second hand woolen goods, and transforming them into something new.
There is no knitting involved, but you will need a sewing machine. The photographs and big and clear, and the instructions are easy to follow.
The cupcake pin cushions (as featured on the cove) are adorable, and a sweet addition to your sewing kit. There is such a variety of projects in this book – with journal covers, hand puppets, a doggie coat and poncho, just to name a few.
There are 30 crafty pieces to make, and once you have finished these you will be confident to experiment with your own ideas.
Available from all good bookstores.
