Out of the project bag and into the gift bag.

There was a baby born *cough* a few months ago. And so I made more of a toddler present than a baby present. These are a set of 6 balls made from wool felt. Six almond-shaped pieces per ball, each a different color and then two circles on the end to hide the messy bits where points don’t line up. It’s an old pattern that I have been making for years - I keep a book just for this one pattern, which only has one pattern piece!

Wool felt came from Beetle & Fred. And I had some embroidery thread that I dyed years ago that matched the colors perfectly!
