Felting Cat Beds

Its been awhile since my last post and you may be wondering what happened. I have been very busy.

I will be leading a workshop on knitting and felting cat beds for the Mercer Spinners and Weavers Guild at Munnel Run Farm on June 14. The workshop is free and open to members and friends of Otter Creek Store. Want to come to the workshop?? Email me for details.

Pictures of the some of the beds I have finished and am still working on.







After finishing two of my Kitty Beds I set them on a stack of plastic boxes. When I came back into the room I found Emmet trying out the new beds. My cats love these beds. If I leave them out it is not long till one of them discovers a new bed and crawls in for a nap. If you have a cat you really must try knitting and felting a cat bed for your little furry friend. This quick easy project is a great way to use left over wool yarn and makes a great gift.



I am still knitting almost daily but gardening have taken over my priorities list this past month.

I will be giving a program on growing roses for the Mercer Garden Club in a few weeks. I am working hard to get my beds cleaned up and my roses pruned and weeded so they look good when the gardeners come. I will post pictures when the roses start blooming.
