Whatever they are called, I made one over the weekend. I had grabbed 2 sweaters at the value village ( got a discount too because they had a hole each! ) and only one felted. That is the body part and the little flower detail part. The other one was great for the edges. It's a good in between thingy, for when it is too warm for proper sweaters, but still a bit chilly on your shoulders.
Fuzzy little detail parts.
Also, my new groovy butterfly chair cover came! I ordered it on EBAY and I am quite pleased. It is not as deep as my red one, which was torn in so many places, but it is way sturdier. I plan to use it inside during the winter for reading in - or knitting ofcourse, but I will need to find a wee rug for it. Now that we have wooden floors, this chairs feet will make horrible dents everywhere so it needs its own companion rug! A partner in crime.
I love the little shrug! It turned out so well and I can't believe you found two sweaters in such an awesome colour! And good score on the chair too.

Clever reconstruction on the sweater! And the new chair-cover looks nice and inviting.
