Just when my head was about to explode with lists of who gets what, a sweet respite! The soothing pleasure of handling merino fleece, the rhythmic motion of needle felting, and the magical transformation from fleece to ball combine to make this a really satisfying (and relaxing) project. A great mid-December reminder to slow down and have some fun.

This is a wonderful communal project, easy enough for kids and for not-so-crafty friends. So get the whole family involved or invite some friends over for an egg nog/ felting party. The beautiful hand made garland you end up with is just an added bonus.

Take a break from the midnight sales and the latest versions of the latest things. You will be so glad you did!
