Felt Jewellery

Felt Jewellery


The necklace was made in 2 parts. The spherical felt beads were made by rolling a length of  merino tops into a rough ball shape, making it hold together by stabbing the join with a barbed needle, and then rolling the ball in wet, soapy hands until firm and felted. Then I made a "Swiss Roll" of 2 contrasting layers of merino tops, rolled up into a cylinder. I wet felted it, and once dry, I cut slices to go in between the spheres. Once all the felt beads were threaded together, I added ribbon to make a necklace. The matching brooch has a felt back, and a brooch pin.
