Baby Brother

Well, he's not such a baby anymore, is he? In fact, he's 21, but you know how it is--when I look at his handsome man-face, I still see the fat cheeks and cork-screw curls.
The lovely young woman snuggled up to him is his girlfriend, Bridget. The hoop was my Christmas present to them--and kind of a nod to their long-term relationship, a welcome into our family. And I accomplished all that with wool felt! :-)

You are uber talented!!! I wish i could work felt like this! What type is it? it looks thin but not see through-ish like MY eco-felt....do you use a mix of acrylic and wool? Thanks

Happy Crochet Chic--I use 100% wool felt. It's pretty amazing, but it's not cheap. The blend is a good alternative, if you want something less pricey.
