Hi! I just wanted to share the granny squared blanket, from a Paton pattern, that I have just finished. It is a different take on the granny square in that it is just one large square, no sewing squares together. Link

Last year I acquired a large amount of eyelash yarns for charity knitting, and I still had a lot left over after I had knitted loads of scarves. It felt wrong to just dump it as some people suggested, and I was pretty sure that I wasn’t going to be able to offload it on eBay, so I decided to use it all up and make a blanket.

Big news items from Felt Club HQ! Applications are now online for the HOLIDAY event on November 18. New location, the campus at Los Angeles City College on Vermont! And teaming up with Maker Faire to present “Maker Square” at Felt Club.

So, because its super fun to make random stuff out of material/paper/anything - a sewing “jam” could be fun. With like minded people, sewing machines, coffee and stuff. Bring some crafty supplies, a sewing machine, or anything at all. We can make a group project or individual things, or just listen to cheesy community radio and chatter.
