Today I am featuring a felt scarf pattern, or better said, a felt-making craft video series to make beautiful felt scarves.
This free felt scarf pattern + tutorial explains each step of the way from raw wool to smashing scarf. The felting project is presented by felting veteran Laura Artates.

You can tell that the featured artist has been at it (felting, that is) since age 5. I have listened to her instructions for wet felting several times, and each time picked up little details that made the project better and easier.
