Just felted the cutest roll-up case from 1 skein of @cascadeyarns.bsky.social #Cascade220 and a free Lion Brand pattern!
Washed it twice in my high-efficiency washer, added a cord, and needle-felted. Details and links on my blog! 😀

#sundayshawl by Alia Bland (thelittlebeenz). I have made several of them over the past 10+ years. When I make a new one I remember all the others—many were gifts in trying times such as illness, loss, or wanting to send a long distance hug. I’m making this one for me for these trying times.✌️❤️🧶
