	These 4 coasters are black with blue, purple, and green stripes. I hand knitted them with 100% wool yarn and fulled them for a thicker felted texture.Wool is a good choice for coasters as it can hold up to a 30% of its own weight in water before feeling wet (much more than synthetic fibers). The scales on the outside of the wool fibers also repel water.Wool also traps air so that it insulates. Thats why wool clothes are so warm, but it also works the other way. You can put hot stuff on the coasters and it will insulate the table.Hand wash cold. They might shrink a tiny bit in a washer.To pay with a credit card just select other as your payment choice and I will send you an invoice with google checkout. (Google Checkout is my preferred payment option as it is safer, faster, and costs less than paypal.)

	This blue little seal is looking for a new home.  Hes so soft and cute.  He has green eyes and a light blue mouth with blue wire whiskers.He likes to play gently- not recommended for anyone who will put him in their mouth.  Contains small parts.I needle felted him. Yes, I made him by poking some wool over and over with a barbed needle.Dimentions: 2.5in tall (6.4cm)4.5in head to tail (11.5cm)

	This lovely yarn has many different shades of green, with a deep seaweed green and transitioning to a pale green with a few flecks of blue and yellow.The colors generally repeat- not exact every time around, but different shades of the same colors.This yarn is so soft and pretty and tempting I need to put it down before it winds up on my needles.I dyed this yarn with acid dyes for colorfastness. (Nothing harsh though, the acid is simple white vinegar.)100% superwash woolworsted weight220 yards3.5/  100gramsguage is about 4.5-5 st per in on size 6-9 needlesMachine wash/ Tumble dry low

	Ive had a lot of people ask me What is felted soap?Basically, it is soap covered in felt- soap that comes with its own wash cloth, only it works way better than your average wash cloth.It makes such a nice lather, and helps your soap last a bit longer, which is especially great for handmade soaps.Felted soap is great if youre in a hurry- no grabbing for a bottle, no pouring- just grab it and wash!Its also great if you want a little luxury!  I seek out a variety of delicious scents from artisan soap makers who take the time to make exceptional soaps.  Then I cover them in Corriedale wool and felt them by hand at my sink. When youre done using it be sure to let it dry.  I like to set mine on a soap dish with slots so the water can drain away.As the soap is used up the wool will continue to shrink helping you use every last bit of the soap. When the soap is gone youll be left with a little scrubbie. Keep using it at bath time or cut it open and you have a place to keep tiny treasures.This soap is the Black Raspberry Vanilla Scent from TheSoapSeductionIts a perfect mix of raspberry and vanilla!3 1/4 ouncesThis listing is for 1 felted soap.Ingredients:olive oil, castor oil, palm oil, coconut oil, palm kernel oil, distilled water, fragrance, pink pigment + wool

	A new twist on an old idea!Wool is a good choice for coasters as it can hold up to a 30% of its own weight in water before feeling wet (much more than synthetic fibers).  The scales on the outside of the wool fibers also repel water.Wool also traps air so that it insulates. Thats why wool clothes are so warm, but it also works the other way. You can put hot stuff on the coasters and it will insulate the table.These 4 coasters are dark brown with blue orange and white speckles. I hand knitted them with 100% wool yarn and fulled them for a thicker felted texture.Hand wash cold.  They might shrink a tiny bit in a washer.To pay with a credit card just select other as your payment choice and I will send you an invoice with google checkout.

	<title>Best Friend Mittens Pattern (USD $1.50)</title>

	&#60;/a&#62;
	This is a pattern for my Best Friend Mittens.  It fits a womens medium (about 6 3/4in hand length from beginning of hand to end of middle finger) (just over 7 cm).  If your hand is longer/shorter you could add or subtract rows to get the desired length.  These mittens are not handed.  You can wear either mitten on either hand, as the thumb is centered on the side.  I used alpaca yarn for the pictured mittens.  Theyre very soft.  Gauge = 5st/in  I used size 6 and size 4 double pointed needles, use the size needles you need to get the gauge.You need to know how to knit in the round to use this pattern.This is for a .pdf file that you can print out, so there is no shipping cost.  I will need the email address that you want it sent to.  To pay with a credit card, select other when you make your purchase and I will send you an invoice with google checkout.

	This yarn is dyed in some of my favorite colors!  It has a deep royal blue, a light sky blue, and a light green.  The colors are dyed in short sections.The colors repeat so depending on the size of the project you could get some nice stripes or a variegated pattern.

	&#60;/a&#62;
	I crocheted this cute daffodil out of cream colored cotton yarn.The flower is 3D, has six petals and a raised center cup.It would be great as a final touch on a hat, scarf, or purse; either sewn or pinned on.  Use it as a decoration or anything else your can think of.Dimensions: just under 5 inches across (12-13cm)1 5/8 inches tall (4.1cm)Ships flat in a mailer, dont worry, its a sturdy little flower and will get back into shape with just a little nudge.
