Hand Knit and Felted Bird Nest ~ All Sold

Every winter after Christmas, I get a craving to knit something. I think I need a change from sewing. I only seem to finish small projects and am still working on a shawl started 3 years ago!

Hand knitted and then felted for a natural, primitive look. 4" wide

Both are sold, thank you!
