Cute and simple muff and scarf to make from scraps of yarn. If you're a Thicket member, email me and I'll send you the directions.

These are too simple for words. From felted fabric cut triangles. Align the triangles over each other to form six pointed stars. Using a button for each side, stitch through both pieces of the star fixing the buttons in place. Add a thread to hang. Make them as funky, glamorous, homespun as you like. Felted fabric does not unravel, whether knitted or crocheted, so there is no need to edge these stars though you can if you like.

Ever popular Aran Tweeds made a great addition to the winter home through these warm and welcoming cushions from Jo Sharp's publication "Home". Knitted here in Posie and Spring. Each cushion takes 5 balls of Aran Tweed
