Using an idea from the new Indygo Junction Felting Book I started experimenting with this jacket. The trim around the collar and all over one side of the jacket, onto the back and ending at the pocket on the other side is a yarn with metallic fibers. I purchased this from a local knit shop. I used wool roving in various colors on the collar as well as pieces of yarn cut in snippets and needle punched. The jacket in the book is called Confetti. I have more to do with this but thought I would share this work in progress.


Even DH thought it was interesting and something to work on to wear at Christmas!!! He sees embellishing as something for special occasions!!!!!
I really like the look of this. I am just so talkative tonight! LOL, seriously I can't wait to see where you go with it.
