Meadow Peacock, a felt capelet

[Molly Mollusca]

Not so long ago I attended a Felt workshop and I made this capelet. (thanks for the correct term, gemini6184! )

The top is green and the inside is purple lilac. I'm not so good at felting, because Meadow has holes and the outsides are not that thight, but still for a first felt cloth it is not that bad. I went for forestfairy look to the whole, I think it worked.

Enough... The pictures...




And all you need is some wool, some soap and hot mater. eek
Felting really is like magic...

What do you girls think?

Edit! I've found some pictures of when I was making the capelet! biggrin




You can see the bubbly plastic underneath the wool. It's supposed to give some extra wriction.

I think that is awesome.

How long did it take?  

[Molly Mollusca]

An afternoon. Not that long... It feel like it is long, because you have to stay with it and rub it for a long time.

thats really cool. (i think the word you were thinking of in english is capelet, although wrap works 3nodding )

That's really pretty! It kind of has a medieval/renaissance look. Nice job!

No problem, foreign languages are hard. And style knows no language, so whatever word you use for something, its still worn the same way. 3nodding
