I felted this vibrant blue sweater a long time ago and used it for the liner of a bright orange felted scarf. But there was still quite a bit left and finding a sweater (or even yarn) in this bright a blue is rare so I used it up! </div><div align="center"> </div><div align="center"><br /> </div><div align="center"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgYi2_R16PyfetCOi1s8xUEl8hvzQmFrSJx3i6Z2Gxjo3HKHd3jA-O1g1UTM5jlTzEZb7qzENGXVfICh_VdfkgHL9WenT_ZBuFJvi4DNL-kmBaIOhiNlqZW8wyUSPvMpSP8EOzQD_6jc10/s1600-h/blue+felted+scarflette+2.jpg"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5427896765256455842" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgYi2_R16PyfetCOi1s8xUEl8hvzQmFrSJx3i6Z2Gxjo3HKHd3jA-O1g1UTM5jlTzEZb7qzENGXVfICh_VdfkgHL9WenT_ZBuFJvi4DNL-kmBaIOhiNlqZW8wyUSPvMpSP8EOzQD_6jc10/s320/blue+felted+scarflette+2.jpg" style="WIDTH: 181px; HEIGHT: 320px; CURSOR: hand" /></a> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg4ufCbGZXbV7K0vx2Ee2PVIn-gfOEwgHmSU4-E2Y3W866Gx-MTIIGmff-S9yZGBPe7o4XFQ6oDYGP5-8oyWpDRVDZDIomYKgRY3JO1vfXStXWH-m3_QpmZwnNnkG9n9C8l5CCiwYB5LkA/s1600-h/blue+felted+scarflette+3.jpg"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5427896761521604994" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg4ufCbGZXbV7K0vx2Ee2PVIn-gfOEwgHmSU4-E2Y3W866Gx-MTIIGmff-S9yZGBPe7o4XFQ6oDYGP5-8oyWpDRVDZDIomYKgRY3JO1vfXStXWH-m3_QpmZwnNnkG9n9C8l5CCiwYB5LkA/s320/blue+felted+scarflette+3.jpg" style="WIDTH: 320px; HEIGHT: 291px; CURSOR: hand" /></a><br /><br /></div><div align="center">I cut the sleeve off and cut the ribbed end off as well. I sewed the end shut and turned it right side out. I used my rotary cutter and a ruler to get a perfectly straight strip which I made into the ruffle in the end. To sew it, I inserted it between each seam and pinned it shut. Then sewed it-pretty simple actually. I decided to sew snaps in the inside to close it. It needed something else but with such a bright color I wanted to keep it fairly simple so I sewed on a collection of my grandmother's vintage buttons. Now I have to decide if I'm going to keep it for myself or sell it on etsy...<br /><br /><br /></div><div align="center"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjlx5qhyphenhyphen5JpqPB4qfvAa3NIwJwRaORYWaT2a4dFTNoALJh06eweP8uDBFJjVQu-koz4E5-E0msmqhUxmhNh-0R4pdZBiQWQGziEf1hJMhXXPaua4coA9_VvLvgX8_3LzYbX67IjGyt-aMM/s1600-h/blue+felted+scarflette+4.jpg"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5427896758506073154" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjlx5qhyphenhyphen5JpqPB4qfvAa3NIwJwRaORYWaT2a4dFTNoALJh06eweP8uDBFJjVQu-koz4E5-E0msmqhUxmhNh-0R4pdZBiQWQGziEf1hJMhXXPaua4coA9_VvLvgX8_3LzYbX67IjGyt-aMM/s320/blue+felted+scarflette+4.jpg" style="WIDTH: 214px; HEIGHT: 320px; CURSOR: hand" /></a> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhT-XP2V0hh1ZXZ57QnO7LkcGrvBX6YGDd2lXxd1oIwX1YnVI0otFmDDutfiw3hbltuxaN-GVmSxvhE1Oxk0HBzCVPTLO60b9v5IYtqgoFYbn9TUo1y0Z5m6-GHG_BSmmGSGF-gOoyq9UQ/s1600-h/blue+felted+scarflette+5.jpg"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5427896610364354514" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhT-XP2V0hh1ZXZ57QnO7LkcGrvBX6YGDd2lXxd1oIwX1YnVI0otFmDDutfiw3hbltuxaN-GVmSxvhE1Oxk0HBzCVPTLO60b9v5IYtqgoFYbn9TUo1y0Z5m6-GHG_BSmmGSGF-gOoyq9UQ/s320/blue+felted+scarflette+5.jpg" style="WIDTH: 320px; HEIGHT: 214px; CURSOR: hand" /></a><br /><br /><br />I have this <a href="http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=32939492">necklace</a> below listed on etsy and it has been sitting there a while.
